Which is largely why he is where he is today as am I.

And yet, the shit goes on.

Thanks for posting.

I join him in his heavy sigh.

Mercy. I would have had trouble being that nice. "Your mom would expect more from you ..." Yep. Respect, decency, good sense -- long gone from the t-folk.

A round of applause for Van Jones.

And yes, he was waaaaay more respectful and polite to Saracist Palin than I would have been. But he is a class act - something she will never, ever be.

It really comes through on this commentary.

Like all of you, I couldn't have resisted the opportunity to express with a lot more harshness how I feel about Sarah Palin.

As many of you know Sarah Palin had a fling with Glenn Rice while he was playing for the University of Michigan in a basketball tournament in Alaska.

Keeping her base stirred up, unafraid of being exposed for her hypocrisy. She is laughing all the way to the bank.

Nugent, Sarah, and by extension each and every Republican and the people who vote for them are racists.
Their hearts have been poisoned with hatred and fear.

She is throbbing for the Nugent, so who says likes repel and opposites attract ? Even if that's true, this marriage of Bigots proves the exception. Van Jones may as well be complaining about the snow...it's gonna happen, sad to say.
