This is one of the rare times that I agree with luckovich. It just goes to show that you don’t have to be drunk for your true feelings to come out. This is what Andrew Young will be remembered for.

And to think Republicans and wingnuts would have forgiven him instantly if he had only shot somebody in the face!
He screwed up. He has asked for forgiveness. So now the family values, uber-religious political party is not going to give it to him? How hypocritical!

This is nothing new. The only reason it got so much attention now is because it was an opportunity to scapegoat Big WalMart. If not for that alliance, it would have been swept under the rug if indeed anyone batted an eyelash in the first place. This sort of talk about Jews, Koreans and Arabs an accepted part of the black lexicon of endless grievances.
It’s just another example of Blacks’ Jew hatred which encourages an alliance with Arabs as long as they don’t own grocery stores:
{{In 1977, President Jimmy Carter appointed Young the Ambassador to the UN. His controversial statements made headlines almost from the start. However, President Carter continued to support his ambassador until 1979, when, contrary to US policy and statute, he met with a representative of the Palestinian Liberation Organization. When the occurrence of that meeting was revealed, Young’s public statements were perceived as evasive by Administration critics. Ultimately, Young was forced to resign.}}
During the 1980 presidential race, Young’s penchant for outrageous and undiplomatic comments once again caused problems when he tried to whip up Carter support among blacks by claiming that if Republican Ronald Reagan won, it would be “alright to kill n**** again!” Carter was forced to disavow Young’s comments, and the incident probably helped elect Reagan, rather than the opposite.[citation needed] Carter awarded Young the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1981.
There should be a lesson here for the Left, but they’re too stuck on Idiot to see it.

Andy Young’s probable anti-semitism should come as no surprise. Blacks harbor a good deal of anti-semitism, as Jews harbor dislike of blacks. The civil rights movement united them but concealed the real hostility. Jewish women who hired black help always were concerned about the diseases they might bring into the home, much disinfecting took place after the maid or cook went home. Blacks raised on the New Testament, like all Christians, have been taught anti-semitism with their mothers’ milk.
It is honest to admit all this, then you can forgive and forget.
It is funny that blacks and Jews were ever able to cooperate, two groups diametically unlike one another. Blacks have no super ego, no ability to postpone enjoyment, while Jews are the SuperEgo par excellence.

The Wall-Mart fiasco is the icing on the cake as far as I’m concerned. Andy Young’s decades of enthusisam for Comrade Bobby Mugabe in Zimbabwe alone condemns him to the ashheap of history. What began in 1979 with Young’s stubborn and very biased refusal to accept the victory a moderate black bishop, his coziness with the Marxist dictator and onging cheerleading of Africa’s most Hitlerian dictator knows few limits. As Mugabe tramples freedom and hope, destroying what was once the continent’s most diverse and productive economy, killing tens of thousands, starving millions, Neither Young (nor the Carter Center, for that matter - its founded equally culpable from his own naivete in ‘79) has uttered a long overdue mea culpa. As recently as last year the pious, self-promoting Wal-Mart pimp couldn’t imagine anyone better than Kleptocrat Mugabe at the helm. The Jewel of Africa is now a stinking turd, thanks in no small part to Andy Young.
That he should be revealed now as a posturing man of cardboard, racist in his own right, pathologically conflicted over the Almightly and the Almighty dollar and immune to the shattering tragedy he played such a powerful role in giving a near-forgotten part of the Africa he claims such love for - this is simply the fair and lovely way that charletans are unveiled, truth surfaces…

This is not free speech:
The demonstrators in San Francisco last week attacked Jews, not Israel. They did it in Arabic, perhaps thinking that only they would be in on the “joke.” They didn’t count on a group of indigenous Middle Eastern Jewish “dogs” being present at the counter rally across the street. In Arab culture, dogs are considered filthy, dirty beasts, and negotiating with “dogs” is not an option. Jews were often identified this way because for centuries we were living as a subjected people under the dominant culture of Islam.-NYSun

In Iraq, America is waiting on Muqtada al-Sadr and the Shiite militias. We know they are now the driving force behind the sectarian civil war brewing in Iraq, but we have yet to make a serious attempt to dismantle them. Part of the problem is the political leadership in Baghdad, which has refused to authorize an attempt to clean out Sadr’s stronghold in Baghdad. But why should the Iraqis stick their necks out to oppose Iran’s man in Baghdad, when we are letting Iran position itself as the region’s rising power?-AmericanSpectator

Well, well, the AJC is running the most recent Republican campaign ad in their editorial pages:
Power short-circuited- Last week, U.S. District Judge Anna Diggs Taylor ordered the warrantless surveillance by the National Security Agency halted. (An immediate appeal by the Justice Department put enforcement of her ruling on hold.) Taylor found the wiretaps unconstitutional. She ruled in a challenge to the practice that it violates the separation of powers among the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government, and the right of citizens to privacy and freedom of speech.-AJC Yea, brain power short circuited.
But whatever, let the voters know that if pinkos get power then “judges” like Anna Diggs Taylor will be placed into hereditary lawmaking king positions, ruling at their every whim, totally unfounded in the Law.

Look at college costs, a lightning rod for lamentations, especially with the start of a new school year upon us. According to data from the College Board, over the past 20 years, inflation-adjusted charges for tuition, fees, room, and board rose roughly 80 percent at four-year institutions. But aid per full-time-equivalent student — the majority of which came through government — rose 163 percent. Any question what enabled college prices to rise so high?-AmericanSpectator

There’s no counting how many recessions Times columnist Paul Krugman has predicted, but Bush was exactly right to point out the 4 percent real GDP growth during the first half of 2006, brisk productivity rates, 5.5 million new jobs over the past three years and a historically low 4.8 percent unemployment rate.-RealClearPolitics

No news could be better than this:
But the data on young Americans tell a different story. Simply put, liberals have a big baby problem: They’re not having enough of them, they haven’t for a long time, and their pool of potential new voters is suffering as a result. According to the 2004 General Social Survey, if you picked 100 unrelated politically liberal adults at random, you would find that they had, between them, 147 children. If you picked 100 conservatives, you would find 208 kids. That’s a “fertility gap” of 41%. Given that about 80% of people with an identifiable party preference grow up to vote the same way as their parents, this gap translates into lots more little Republicans than little Democrats to vote in future elections. Over the past 30 years this gap has not been below 20%—explaining, to a large extent, the current ineffectiveness of liberal youth voter campaigns today.-OpinionJournal

When I think of Martin Luther King, a man I admired greatly, I can’t help but reference the “Freedom Train” celebrations held in his honor throughout the country.
This group recently moved “forward,” did Young?:
“The Mid-Peninsula Congregations — a group of Protestants, Catholics, Baha’is, Jews, Muslims and Unitarians — got involved with the event seven years ago to help boost Freedom Train participation.”
Take notice of the Jews, Muslims & Unitarians (Large numbers of Koreans are affiliated with the Unitarian church).
So when did Andrew Young get off MLK’s Freedom (for all) Train?

WASHINGTON - President Bush said Monday the Iraq war is “straining the psyche of our country” but leaving now would be a disaster.
But not nearly as much of a disaster as going there in the first place, huh. At least King George is finally admitting that Iraq was/is a total FUBAR. By 2008, the Republicans are going to be telling us that those dirty ole’ Democrats got us into Iraq in the first place and Republicans just want to save us all from the Democratic war-mongers/profiteers, at least that’s the usual Republican modus operendi.

Andy Young’s comments indicate that not even the politically saavy are immune from occasional bouts of stupidity, ignorance and bigotry. That being said, I believe in time that he can and will make amends much like Jesse Jackson did with his “himey town” remarks several years ago. Being African American doesn’t immunize you from poor lapses in judgment. I should know because I have made my share of senseless comments over the years and had to apologize then do some soul searching. I have observed there is something about having a microphone shoved in your face that places the tongue in gear when it really should remain in park!
Andy Young has joined a growing club of well-known people who have made outlandish and hurtful remarks such as George Bush, Ross Perot, Bill Clinton, Mel Gibson, etc.
In time this, too, shall pass!

What Andy Young said is deplorable, inexcusable and hateful. At least he was man enough to step down as spokesperson for Wal-Mart. However, he did apologize for it and as a Christians we should forgive him. I mean, that is what is preached at every church I have attended.
It is unthinkable that of all the good he has done for decades, one horrible comment would erase all of that. Or that will be the legacy he leaves behind. It will take a while for his credibility to be what it once was, but that is the price you pay for an off the handle statement as those.
On the other side of that, I understand what he was referring too. Anyone who has lived or spent time in a lower income neighborhood knows what he meant to say. In those neighborhoods, most of the storeowners have not been sensitive to the community they serve and they usually do not live in the communities they serve. The service is usually pretty rude and sometimes inhumane with the attitude that they are doing you a favor by being here. You are treated more like a criminal than a customer and rushed or yelled at when asking a reasonable question. The prices are high and the quality is poor. The food sits on the shelf for longer periods of time and is often dusty. This does not represent all stores but I would have to say it does represent the average store. I think this is the message he tried to convey but his wording was poor.
@ Candide, African-Americans and Jews do not harbor dislike for each other. Actually the exact opposite is true due to their similar histories. Unfortunately, when these comments are made people try to make more than what is there.

The Nation — George W. Bush keeps trying to rally popular support for his war in Iraq. But he has little to offer other than stay-the course-ism. He cannot point to progress in Iraq. Nor can he point to a plan that would seem promising. Thus, he is left only with rhetoric—the same rhetoric.
My theory is that the Chimperor must be a pathological liar. He lies and doesn’t even realize he’s lying anymore. If King George were Pinnochio, we could scrap NASA and use his nose to climb to far distant galaxies!

WASHINGTON - Even though he’s not running for re-election this year, President Bush knows just what he would focus on if he were: the economy and taxes.
The economy has slowed in recent months, in part because of the slump in the housing market. Recent economic indicators showed a 4.8 percent jobless rate in July and 4 percent annual economic growth rate through the first half of the year.
The Labor Department recently said employers added just 113,000 new jobs in July, down from 124,000 in June.
Only 37 percent of Americans support Bush’s handling of the economy, according to the Associated Press-Ipsos poll in early August. The same survey showed Bush’s overall approval rating at 33 percent.
This is the day’s comedy piece, the Chimperor giving advice about how to further submarine the economy. Tommorow he’ll be telling us how to elevate America’s world standing through the foreign policy fiasco of the Bush doctrine. Yeh, riiiiiiiiiight! ! !

I continue to read with much delight the comments about Andy Young and what he said in South Central Los Angeles. Having grown up in Los Angeles in the 1950s through 1980, I must say his comments were not only accurate, they were on target. His comments are supported by the 1000s of persons living in low income areas who have no major supermarket. As a young child my mother and I would ride the bus to the “white” side of town to buy groceries. No one has said what he said was not true only that it was offensive to Jews. Well he also mentioned Arabs and Koreans as being merchants in this. This issue of over priced low quality stores in innner city areas has been a bone of contention within Ethnic communities for years. By the way when did he say this? You might be surprised. In any event I look at it as just another much to do about nothing.

Here is what Young said:
{{{{Well, I think they should; they ran the ‘mom and pop’ stores out of my neighborhood, … But you see, those are the people who have been overcharging us selling us stale bread and bad meat and wilted vegetables. And they sold out and moved to Florida. I think they’ve ripped off our communities enough. First it was Jews, then it was Koreans and now it’s Arabs; very few black people own these stores.}}}}
That’s not a statement that about Jews, Koreans, or Arabs as a people. It’s a true statement about small business people that prey on low income areas. The only thing that should be embarrassing is the apology.
I’m not sure what he is trying to say about Floridians though.

DUBLIN (AFP) - An Irish company has thrown down the gauntlet to the worldwide scientific community to test a technology it has developed that it claims produces free energy.
While King George cuts funding for research and development, the rest of the world is seeking solutions to the crux of our problems, energy production. Thankfully they’ll probably let us license the technology when it’s developed (for the right price), then we can start paying through the nose to Ireland or some other rational society instead of the Middle East.

Did you notice that it was an Irish COMPANY, not the Irish GORVERNMENT that claims it knows how to produce free energy?
Why don’t you let big companies spend their own money on research in stead of our tax dollars? Nobody is stopping these companies from any research they like.
Besides, if the government gives more money to energy companies for research, liberals will immediately say that conservatives own the company and Chaney was behind it all.

Yahoo,
It doesn’t take much to debunk your bunk, but I’m waiting for Rushncap the scientist to weigh in:
{{Steorn’s free energy seems curiously expensive}}
Whatever Steorn is doing — and in the utter absence of any testable data, the chances of it being a significant scientific achievement are closer to absolute zero than the contents of Lord Kelvin’s freezer compartment — it’s an expensive experiment. For the price of that Economist advert and whatever they’re paying their PR company, they could have built 10 apparatuses that actually demonstrated their effect and Fedex’d them to the major centres of scientific excellence on the planet…
{{…Whether it’s being driven by madness, genuine misapprehension or some ulterior motive yet to be revealed, it’s not being driven by science. Producing rotational energy out of nothing is a great trick and one that its PR company is clearly very good at, but once the silly season’s over the spin will die down.}}
My personal prediction is that step 2 of the PR campaign will be an attack on Big Oil, revealing The Big Conspiracy to prevent free energy from being released in order to enrich the Cheney - Bush Cabal, and the neo-con stooges who vote for them.
The Big Clue was left in the choice of Big Socialist, one George Bernard Shaw, as the company’s voice.

I read the “free energy” article. Almost to the very end, too. By about two thirds of the way through the piece the company claims to have found a way to violate 2 laws of physics (2nd law of thermodynamics, Lorentz force law). I tend to be a teensy bit skeptical of a claim that would completely throw out 2 major fields of physics (thermodynamics and electromagnetism) because a company wants to make some money. Oh, and in our field quotes by George Bernard Shaw don’t hold all that much sway. No matter how amazingly awesome a playwright he is.

In a way it’s like listening to a bunch of you moonbats on your daily rant. The only difference is the fact part.

Yahoo,
More Ann Coulter Crimes:
In a newspaper column that ran in 2005, Coulter wrote of Supreme Court Justice David H. Souter: “As New Hampshire attorney general in 1977, Souter opposed the repeal of an 1848 state law that made abortion a crime even though Roe v. Wade had made it irrelevant, predicting that if the law were repealed, New Hampshire ‘would become the abortion mill of the United States.”’
{{A Los Angeles Times article from 1990 noted: “In 1977, Souter as state attorney general spoke out against a proposed repeal of an 1848 state law that made abortion a crime — even though the measure had been largely invalidated by the Supreme Court in Roe. vs. Wade … ‘Quite apart from the fact that I don’t think unlimited abortions ought to be allowed … I presume we would become the abortion mill of the United States[.]”’}}
I don’t think this one requires any rewriting at all, and Ann’s exposition of the facts is arguably a smoother read than the original L.A. Times article.
I suppose that instead of saying “New Hampshire” she could have said, “the triangular shaped state wedged between Maine and Vermont”, but that is a bit tedious don’t you think?

Sorry you took such offense. I was even nice enough to ignore your nasty comments to me yesterday. That will teach me to try my hand at appeasement techniques. Ha!

As I noted, there’s really not much difference is there? In the interest of keeping the facts straight, I was splitting hairs to mention it in the first place.
But hey, if it makes you feel any better, run with this microscopic victory. That’s about as good as it gets for you moonbats.

I don’t have a problem with Coulter. She, like any hard-working prostitute, is merely doing what she can to earn money. Yes, it’s unfortunate that she did not choose a better profession than whoring herself out to anyone who wants to pay her a dime, but sometimes a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do. Like most prostitutes her chosen profession has cost her dearly, as she is quite obviously dead on the inside, and has become a horribly unloveable harpy. Again, such are the risks of the oldest profession.
The problem I have is with johns like RW and Danish, who keep shoveling her money for a cheap, dirty thrill. There is a price there too, and they’re paying it. Mental VD, as they start actually believing the filthy little tricks she turns are the real thing.

Beth Wilson, director of Kentucky’s ACLU, said the district is allowed to decide what’s instructionally appropriate.
But “if a school is masking their objections to flag burning under the guise of safety, it raises questions about freedom of speech and academic freedom,” she said. She said her group would monitor the case but did not plan to get involved at this point

In regards to the 5:19 post, I generally agree, that blacks are afforded more leeway when it comes to making racial gaffes. And racism/bigotry is just that, no matter how one tries to spin it or from whom it originates. But I think the comparisons are wrong.
Andrew Young has a long, long documented history of fighting racial and social injustice with class and non-violence. That is not debateable.
Newt Gingrich and Trent Lott most definitely do not, even though they may have have done some good in this area, also. But correctly, or incorrectly, some view their record as very mixed in terms of race relations and unquestionably not even in the same league as Young’s.
That’s probably why so much accomodation was made for Andy when he said something, perhaps not even incorrect, but certainly racially insensitive to say the least. But on balance, his record saves him.
Fortunately many Americans are relatively forgiving by nature (Nixon and Pete Rose notwithstanding!) and are able to look beyond the words and size up the character of a man fairly well..

Morality according to rushncap who doesn’t believe in anything, but loves to throw the word “Christ” around?
Ethical relativists are primarily concerned with denying that there is any universal morality that should be used by people in all societies to guide their own conduct and to make judgments about the conduct of others
If you disagree with him that makes you…………..>>immoral!
Rushncap,
That 6:09 is your great comeback?
Midori,
That 6:08 is your great comeback?

I like the way Conservatives put things:
To be blunt, this means we will need to extract a price not just from those that form the tip of the Islamist spear, but from the entire populations that produce them in such numbers. To win, we may have to make certain cultures regret such support and we may need to temporarily accept our enemy’s rules of war, rather than just whine that they are not ours. There may come a point in the near future, where our model will have to be the real hero Curtis LeMay, the architect of the fire-bombing campaign conducted against the population of Japan, rather than the fictional hero known as the Lone Ranger. There is a reason real cops are trained to shoot at the center of mass of their targets, rather than just the guns in the hands. It is a matter of survival.-HumanEvents
There’s no Bullcrap like you get from a pinko.

They phone Clinton, but he and his senior staff refuse to give authorization for the capture of Bin Laden, for fear of political fall-out if the mission should go wrong and civilians are harmed. National Security Adviser Sandy Berger in essence tells the team in Afghanistan that if they want to capture Bin Laden, they’ll have to go ahead and do it on their own without any official authorization. That way, their necks will be on the line - and not his. The astonished CIA agent on the ground in Afghanistan repeatedly asks Berger if this is really what the administration wants. Berger refuses to answer, and then finally just hangs up on the agent. The CIA team and the Northern Alliance, just a few feet from capturing Bin Laden, have to abandon the entire mission.
You know the rest of the story.

Washington State,
That’s a drag about the new hours here, keeping you from participating. I guess they were implemented because of the non-stop childishness and problems.
This has been my one and only venture into blogosphere and it has really been a mixed bag. Some of it has been a lot of fun, but at other times I have allowed myself to sink to the bottom with the maniacs. Reasonable and intelligent people like you, only make this place better though.
I only visited RW’s site once but didn’t see any reason to spend even more of my life butting heads over the same issues. But banned?!! As in Shoeless Joe banned? And to think I was the one “pariahed” for trying to diminish free (read hate) speech!
And you’re right about changin’ people’s minds. Seems to me that intransigence is not an isolated characteristic here!

The truth was spoken by Reverend Andrew Young. Lies and deceit. Chaos and confusion is not going to change anything. Until racism white supremacy is replaced with a system of justice we can expect more of the same.

Washington State:
Since I was present when the ban occurred, I just wanted to say that you’re 6:22 was a cheap shot.
If you’re the guy that you profess to be, I think you know that.
R.W.’s is a site where a person can visit, make a brief contribution to the topic, or a topic of their choosing and leave awaiting a reply. Often times, I don’t get one, but I don’t leave with my panties in a bunch.
My objective, when I go over there, is not to “change anyone’s mind or argue.” Just exchange ideas or seek his opinion on something that might have me perplexed.
He has visitors from other blogs who he respects and I think it’s his right, not to expose “them” to a heated argument not of his choosing.

I see that three hours time difference doesn’t stop someone from being a lying sack of garbage. WashingtonState was asked to leave my site because he was acting like a guest that comes into your living room, takes a dump on the floor, and wonders why you don’t clean up and bring him dinner.
He was never banned, only asked to leave my personal page, and he full well knows it. There was never even a suggestion that he leave the page that was created as an extension of the hours on this page. If, and that is a huge if, he had any courage he would come back and admit that. By the way, my site has archives too.
Midori,
Did you ever figure out what Buy Danish was trying to tell you about the latest of your psychotic rants?

Good Morning @@:
The libs are off their game this morning, I’m waiting on the new cartoon.
I don’t blame cartoon boy for not wanting to give it any wider circulation than it has already received in the litter box liner.
It’s incredibly lame, an immature outburst from the Bush Derangement ward of the mental institution, they need their medications upped a bit.
Or maybe some lobotomys performed.
By the way, just a little hint, the lock should say “liberalism.”
And the inmate should be “US Greatness.”

I think it’s unfair to call RW website a toilet, or suggest that it’s proper to take a dump there.
RW has every right to blog. I dont think he has any particular unique point of view, in fact, he’s an average stool sample. So what? He’s no different than the 26 million bloggers that have registered domains on the net.
The point is that let him have his self annointed crown of the Roosting Hen on Luckovich’s blog. So what? If he wasn’t nesting there, some other ph-balanced (yet strangely skinless) hack would be.
So blog on, brave chanticleer, you have free range to free-range wherever you please, fowl or squab, it’s your right!
Never mind that if this were China, you’d have been long fricasseed by now.

This is two Iraqi war veterans debating the Iraq war
Watch the video to see the truth vs the spin.
Washington State,
If you upset the wingnuts, you have told the truth. These are very bad people. Not only, do they not care about getting the people who committed mass murder on 9/11, they worship a thing called Ann who bashes their families.
These people are the lowest form of humanity. Their leader says Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 yet they still cheer on the cheerleader. If they had an ounce of decency, they would demand accountability.

Hurrah for RW,
He has set up a most enjoyable blog. I like the conversations there and the exchange of ideas. It is pleasant, a special place to find the thoughts of others.
Keep up the good work, RW. You are doing a great job. Keep on giving us something special.

Mike’s cartoon is SO good today!! Excellent. Best in months.
It has nothing to do with the civil war in Iraq (the one Bush and his joikoff supporters deny), or the chemical weapons the US sold to Iraq so Saddam could kill Kurds, or Bush’s decision to ignore the systematic starvation of millions by North Korea so it could fund its nuke program.
And (surprise) it doesn’t mock the Bushie Rummy November surprise that they dare not mention before midterms. The DRAFT!! They need more cannon fodder to fight multi-front, needless wars! Just wait!!
It hits right at the contempt the Bush joikoffs have for basic civil liberties.
It’s about Bush’s legacy! Can’t wait ‘til November when the CREEPS get it.

Hard to believe that anyone could still believe that Iraq’s the headquarters of Al Qaeda terror and bin Laden’s just a silly Afghan afterthought.
And then to self destruct like that in front of millions?? What a moranic wingnut!!

I believe we have another “Pot To Kettle” situation at the AJC, probably all kinds of people calling in and cancelling their subscriptions due to this ludicrous cartoon.
In response, the Urinal will think up a new name for the tune and send Luckovich off for two weeks on “vacation.”

This is great idea because we will be allowed to vote for Bill Clinton to return as President.

Before I move on to the next cartoon I cannot let this pass:
“The point is that let him have his self annointed crown of the Roosting Hen on Luckovich’s blog. So what? If he wasn’t nesting there, some other ph-balanced (yet strangely skinless) hack would be.”
Polly Prepuce at 8:42^^,
What’s your point?
“Self-annointed”? It takes free will to click on little blue lines and decide out of free choice whether or not to return to a particular site at a later date. It takes a free mind to exercise free will, and it takes a sharp mind to engage others in poigniant and entertaining discourse. We don’t need you making those decisions for us.
We are not mindless eggs in embryo form waiting to hatch. But if you fancy yourself a chicken farmer ruling the ultimate roost, suit yourself. I think you have a loftier self-image but I will henceforth picture you toiling in overalls cleaning up after chickens.
If you want to find us, we’re the skulk of foxes at the henhouse door. You’ve got your work cut out for you farmer.

Funny how the creepy libs are listening to Rush, Hannity etc. every day more than most conservatives.
In addition, they come on here and obsess about a few select bloggers and personal blogs.
Danish, Not surprising it uses a chicken reference. Sounds like it’s full of chickensh*t to me. At least other sane bloggers here can see what idiot freaks some of these libs are.
