By the way, I've yet to see any proof that there really was any Chief "Two Eagles". That looks like a hoax.

he is still claiming that he did no wrong! I think he should serve full term until he publicly announce his shame. |

WMAL.com.
WASHINGTON - A DC based organization of black conservatives is calling for an end to all public funding for National Pubic Radio after a Hispanic commentator used the term "gringos" in a reference to white people in connection with the shootings in Arizona that left Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords severely wounded.
Project 21 Chairman Mychal Massie told 630 WMAL that gringo "is the equivalent in the minds of many, to white people, as the "N" word is to blacks."
"In light of what happened to Juan Williams less than three months ago, NPR staff should be ashamed of this unambiguous and duplicitous double standard," said Massie.
Former NPR commentator Juan Williams was fired by NPR for saying that it makes him nervous to see Muslims getting on the same flight as him.
In the January 12 segment, titled "Across America Latino Community Sighs With Relief" featured on the program "All Things Considered," Daisy Hernandez, a writer on race and politics for the New York Times, said:
"It's safe to say there was a collective sigh of brown relief when the Tucson killer turned out to be a gringo. Had the shooter been Latino, media pundits wouldn't be discussing the impact of nasty politics on a young man this week -- they'd be demanding an even more stringent anti-immigrant policy, " she says.
"I admit sadly that it was only after I saw the shooter's gringo surname that I was able to go on and read the rest of the news about those who lost their lives on Saturday and those who, like Representative Giffords, were severely wounded," said Hernandez in her commentary.
Massie told 630 WMAL, "she showed more concern for how illegal immigrants are viewed than she did for the tragic and senseless loss of life."

I had no idea I was supposed to be so offended by the word gringo. |

Project 21 Chairman Mychal Massie told 630 WMAL that gringo "is the equivalent in the minds of many, to white people, as the "N" word is to blacks." Project 21 gets its name from the fact that there are probably only twenty-one so-called "black conservatives" in the entire country. (As always I ask: "conservative" WHAT? Are they Republican, Democrats, what?) Talk about a professional association of Uncle Toms. Saying that "gringo" is as offensive to whites as the N word is to blacks, that's a classic tactic of confusion and obfuscation. Not gonna work. We're on to your little games. |

MoveOn.org: Redefining R_pe
"A far-reaching anti-choice bill, introduced by Republican Chris Smith and supported by 173 members of the House, includes a provision that could redefine r_pe in the realm of federal funding for reproductive health care.
Right now, federal dollars can't be used for abortion except in cases of r_pe, inc_st, or when the woman's life is in danger. But the Smith bill would narrow that use to "cases of 'forcible' r_pe but not statutory or coerced r_pe."
As far too many women know, bruises and broken bones do not define r_pe - a lack of consent does. Please sign the petition today.
A compiled petition with your individual comment will be presented to your Senators and Representative."
I cannot believe this. What the fuck is this Chris Smith thinking? Is he and the 173 other idiots who support this bullshit serious??

Today is the hundredth anniversary of the birth of the 40th President of the United States, Ronald Wilson Reagan. All those people trying to canonize him as some sort of conservative Republican saint are suffering from the same sort of dementia that affected him during the latter part of his time in office. For a refresher course on some of the ills that Reagan helped usher in, some of which we are still suffering the effects from (e.g. the Taliban, the rise of right-wing "Christians" in the body politic, massive deficits, unnecessary wars for oil, etc.), see: New York Times: Paul Krugman's "The Conscience of a Liberal" blog post, Nov. 10 2007: "Innocent mistakes"Politicus USA: "The Mask of a False God: The Real Record of Ronald Reagan" |

Listening to former Sec. of Defense Rumsfield's interview on ABC News seems to show that Ronnie Reagan wasn't the only out of office Repub with a failing memory. Well, the way he poo-poo's all the other reports about events during his time in the Bush Administration seems to show it's either a defective memory, or he's pulling some kind of Pontius Pilate.  But then Donnie has a book to sell, and you know he won't ever admit anything in writing. Someone might get the idea to bring a lawsuit against him if he did. |

"On the health care law: “It’s Obamacare to me. That’s what it is,” Scott said. When lawmakers asked him to call it by its formal title, the Affordable Health Care Act, Scott said: “You know, when I’m on Fox, they never call it that.” Scott was on Fox News again Tuesday, his third appearance in 17 days, and he slammed Congress for not repealing the law. The lunch’s lightest moment came when Scott jokingly called it the “Non-Affordable Health Care Act,” and lawmakers applauded."
"Scott is a conservative Republican who dislikes government, and most black lawmakers are liberal Democrats who believe in the power of government to help people, especially the poor."
What an idiot.
