I expected better, but that's on me. I'm so tired of hearing, "They did it, why can't we?" as if that makes it alright. Those of us who teach our children right from wrong when they're little, appear hyprocrites once they're grown because all around them they hear the adults saying shit children always say when parents ask "Why did you do that?" - "Because so-and-so did it."<BR/><BR/>My sons are grown now, but you have a little one. You have to decide now, which story you'll tell. My advice, though you didn't ask for it, make it as honest and real as you can. Don't be the hypocrite. Let her know how it really is and hope your foundation serves her when she's grown. <BR/><BR/>Though no indictments to date, here's a similar story to Jefferson's from my home state of SC involving House Majority Whip, Rep. James Clyburn: http://www.charleston.net/news/2008/jun/16/rep_clyburn_draws_fire_earmarks/<BR/><BR/>Keep writing man, it's good, thought-provoking stuff!DebChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02018798227792356966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8075448.post-29443208039355661162008-06-25T23:58:00.000-05:002008-06-25T23:58:00.000-05:00Cliff...ROFLMAO Man!!

I think you are angry because Ole Bill won't sit down."</I> And ain't mad at you! How in THE HELL can he even fix his mouth to say he's running again!! Money in the damn freezer?! Indicted kinfolks?!<BR/><BR/>You made an even more poignant point that I just could not ignore - <B>"My only hope is that all of your opponents are not white. The reason for that is that black people in our area have this philosophy that even a crooked brother can’t do us as bad as a white dude. That’s misguided and damaging sometimes but it comes from years of living in this city and never communicating with one another."</B><BR/><BR/>As I read it, this presidential race came to mind and the words "in America" just jumped up and substituted themselves for "in our area" and the words "living in this country" did the same thing with "living in this city!"<BR/><BR/>Great post man!DebChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02018798227792356966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8075448.post-29253672984663395582008-06-22T00:37:00.000-05:002008-06-22T00:37:00.000-05:00Hey angry white dude.....Everyday I have to hear a...Hey angry white dude.....<BR/><BR/>Everyday I have to hear about how Obama has to kiss ass to make you feel comfortable enough to vote for him. Black people are racists because people like you thought us how to be that way. Obviously you are one of those cats that pick up on one thing and not read the whole post. <BR/><BR/>The difference between politicians in those cities and William Jefferson is they are not depending on billions of dollars in federal funds to rebuild a city.Cliftonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03389032037779987856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8075448.post-7086270265764261182008-06-21T21:39:00.000-05:002008-06-21T21:39:00.000-05:00You are not ready to vote Caucasian?

By the way, I agree with your take on Jefferson. Now how about the other corrupt black politicians in Detroit, Atlanta, Philadelphia, DC, etc?<BR/><BR/>angry white dudeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8075448.post-13231503419575533712008-06-21T10:47:00.000-05:002008-06-21T10:47:00.000-05:00apple dont fall far from the treeapple dont fall far from the treeAll-Mi-T [Thought Crime] Rawdawgbuffalohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08843040863123899426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8075448.post-49942230071773378492008-06-21T08:52:00.000-05:002008-06-21T08:52:00.000-05:00Can't we all just get along?
