Bill Ross: Hillary campaign violates church vs state separation

Bill Ross @ January 22, 2008 # No Comment Yet

Hillary Clinton appeared at an African-American Baptist Church last week in New York to receive the pastor’s endorsement.
Please explain to me why that church should retain its tax-exempt status. I must be the last American who still believes in separation of church and state. I do not like it when evangelical and fundamentalist [...]

Bill Ross @ January 21, 2008 # No Comment Yet

After watching the Clintons in action against Obama, I think it is time for white supremacists to start KKK for Klinton.
Conservative blacks like Clarence Thomas have been called “Uncle Toms.”

Jindal takes Governorship in Louisiana

DeWaun Simmons @ January 14, 2008 # No Comment Yet

I think it is safe to say that I share Michelle Malkin’s feelings about Bobby Jindal.  Thus far in his political career in Louisiana, he’s proven himself wholly invaluable to the state since the Katrina disaster.
Michelle Malkin » Bobby Jindal: The future of the GOP -There is one Republican I’m absolutely thrilled about, though: Bobby [...]
