3. Show me a black House rep the past 40 years who made waves
Edited on Mon Apr-03-06 09:12 PM by Neil Lisst
and I'll show you the same damn stories we are hearing now about Cynthia.

Adam Clayton Powell, anyone?

Any time a black rep gets "too far out there," they catch this orchestrated "he (or she) is crazy (or a terrible boss, or crooked, or communist, or blah blah blah).

I'm so sicked of seeing black reps treated like step children every time they get too out of line criticizing the powers that be.
