"Oh no, we're not a white Christian party."
Edited on Mon Jun-27-05 04:18 AM by Bluebear
26 percent of Alabama is African-American. Notice anything missing in this photo of the conservative "Ten Commandements rally" in Montgomery? (Sorry the photo is so large. I was going to shrink it and said, no, let's be fair and really scan it close-up!) :hi: I count one person of color.

was the number of folks, sitting around, that are perfect for military service. Maybe someone should hand out enlistment forms.

6. So, Howard Dean wasn't wrong?
maybe we should let Biden, Lieberman et al know about this startling revelation. Who'd a thunk it? Well, besides Howard Dean and every other thinking Democrat that is. :shrug:

7. I prefer to call these people the 'Cracker Christians'. And that isn't a
racist remark, I'm of the 'white' persuasion myself. I just think that these people are just the stereotype of the petty, mean-spirited, bigoted 'white' people everywhere.
