      Buffalo Soldier Blackout

      Posted by j1o2n3a4s5 from gnn.tv

      African-American voters scrubbed by secret GOP hit list The Republican National Committee has a special offer for African-American soldiers: Go to Baghdad, lose your vote. A confidential campaign directed by GOP party chiefs in October 2004 sought to challenge the ballots of tens of thousands of voters in the last presidential election, virtually all of them cast by residents of Black-majority precincts. Files from the secret vote-blocking campaign were obtained by BBC Television Newsnight, London. They were attached to emails accidentally sent by Republican operatives to a non-party website. One group of voters wrongly identified by the Republicans as registering to vote from false addresses: servicemen and women sent overseas.

      Does diversity make us unhappy?

      Posted by j1o2n3a4s5 from BBC News

      Researchers from the Racial Equality Office in the U.K have reported that communities that are multicultural tend to be less trusting and less happy. Trevor Phillips, the head of the commision concludes that monocultural communities have higher levels of internal bonding. The commision also concludes that ethnicity is a major factor that binds a community to become stronger when conflict occurs.

      MCSO Posse Member 's Hate Speech Against Immigrants

      Posted by j1o2n3a4s5

      Sheriff Joe provides an opportunity for folks to get very little training, yet be able to go out with a gun and arrest undocumented immigrants. It's almost like handing a badge to the Minutemen- a border vigilante's wet dream, all for just a few dozen hours of training. This is scary, and must be stopped.

      They [the press] are quite concerned, I believe, about whether a Democratic congress is going to behave properly. Certainly, the voice of beltway intellectual torpor, Joe Klein, is concerned that dark hued Democratic members have a problem with proper decorum. (We all saw that horrible, horrible funeral for Coretta Scott King.)
