      Coulter, Novak and Newt are Fredheads

      Posted by VincebusEruptum from Jazz-from-hell.blogspot

      News that Human Events endorsed Fred Thompson barely made a ripple. That's probably because Thompson has barely made a ripple himself. He might get a boost in SC, where his demonizing brand of swagger seems to resonate. Is that what Human Events is banking on?

      Stop the insanity: Key

      Posted by VincebusEruptum from Scholarsandrogues

      And you college football fans thought you were having a weird year. Pity the poor political junkies. This all happened in just the last couple of days: a Libertarian candidate raked in over $4 million in one day, a liberal senator says Newt Gingrich is a genius, and supposedly fed-up Dems capitulated on yet another Bush nominee...

      Craig poses dilemma for GOP colleagues

      Posted by Jeff from MSNBC

      The Idaho Republican's decision gives his GOP colleagues two unpleasant choices. They can resume pressuring him to leave, and risk being seen as disloyal politicians who go harder on alleged homosexual misdeeds than on heterosexual wrongdoings. If not for Mark Foley, who would run Congress today?

    Democrats May Kick Out Joe Lieberman If He Addresses The Republican National Convention

    Addressing the Republican convention would be in the true spirit of "reaching across the aisle"...  republicans have been doing it for years and it would be a welcome change.

    About time.  After the ‘08 elections, we won’t need Joe anymore.   If the Republicans can stand him, they can have him.

    Think Progress » GOP convention button asks, ‘If Obama is president…will we still call it the W

    Americans ARE ready for Obama. He WILL be the next president. His policies will be no great breakthrough. But…his presence in the whitehouse will be.

    If you want to fear this guy…fear his politics…NOT his race… OR his church.

    And why would an African church in the U.S. not recognise America’s racism?  Excluding historical American racial history for a moment, are you forgetting that Africans were not allowed by law to even learn about Christianity until long after reconstruction?  Africans were not allowed to read, including the Bible.  Even after reconstruction, Africans were barred from attenting White churches until well into the 1970’s.  I remember, I was there and have had the experience of being told I was not welcome at an all-White church in NYC.  I had to find a "Black" church were I was accepted. 

    To ignore this history is revisionist and dismissive of the history of traditional Europocentric racism.  There is nothing anti-American or anti-White in what this church teaches.  The U.S. has a long and sorry history of violent anti-Indigenous and anti-African bias, so it would be foolish to think that the theology of a people subject to such repression would not reflect this history and experience.  If White American racism and genocide did not exist in the first place, such ideologies let alone churches would never have developed because their would have been no need.  And to suggest that such attitudes and practises have ceased is to callously deny the obvious.

    Americans are ready for a black president, but not this one,. He himself is all about skin color. He sat in church for 20 years  that was all about race.
