The delusions of one black conservative Bush supporter.
I can't post a link to this article because it appears in a free independent local weekly that doesn't have an online version. It is an interview with one Renee Amoore, chair of the Pennsylvania delegation of the Republican National Convention. Below is an interesting excerpt:

And how are blacks with this president?

"We have a strong faith, and so that's where the president went, to the faith-based communities, to make sure people got their needs met. Because before black people will go to the hospital, they'll go to church. Now you can have faith-based agencies having healthcare centers in their church. He looked at the economic development piece, at jobs. He's looking at the welfare-to-work piece and enhancing that. He looked at ex-offenders and restoration of rights,so people could be able to vote. and then he looked at the housing piece, where we put billions of dollars into housing to make sure that people in public housing got what they need, other than the old broken down high-rise buildings. There are now more black people who own homes that at any time in history...."

Where to begin???

1. Stoopid !!!
I'd be willing to bet she's already got her share of the pie, and now believes she's on the moral high ground. We here in Illinois have to contend with the likes of Alan Keyes, another success story. Y'all should thank God you don't have to put up with his shrill self-righteous BULLSHIT for the next couple of months. . .:puke:

Bush looked at a lot of stuff, couldn't figure it out and moved on.

BTW, what do the health care centers in the churches look like? Will they pray for your good health or actually provide medical services?

4. One of the many...
:shrug: moments in this article. She's very vague about a lot of stuff. She'll go far.
