1. you left out claiming it was difficult to help Katrina victims since blacks

were shooting at helicopters, raping, and looting.

And of course the not helping too.

3. or that the Katrina victims got a good deal in Houston...

...because, apparently our black citizens should feel honored to live in a Houston convention center rather than in their own homes. :eyes:

6. Jesse Helms on Larry King got call thanking him for 'keeping the n*ggers down'

and his only response was 'thank you very much.'

Then Larry King said 'next caller...'

9. What about Barbara Bush in Houston statement?

"Almost everyone I've talked to says we're going to move to Houston. ... What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas. Everybody is so overwhelmed by the hospitality. And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this -- this is working very well for them." -Barbara Bush

10. Too many to list

how about Bill Bennet - aborting balck babies would keep down future crime rate

then the repunk running for Katherine Harris house seat can't remember the idiot's name - but something about blacks can't swim - or don't like to swim or whatever the hell the dumb ass said

12. Is that picture right?

Not that I understand it, but I notice that Bush is left handed. I never knew that.

18. Sure, like "Swift Boat Veterans" was an "independent" group, they illegally coordinated with Bush's

campaign
