Australia has to tell us what Clinton had to say: bushgang is racist

http://www.democrats.com/

Clinton Denounces Bush, Reagan and the Supreme Court KKK as Racists - a Story Blacked Out by US Media!

During the GOP Convention, Bill Clinton made one of the most powerful condemnations EVER of Bush. Yet not a peep from the media, who were too busy licking Bush Butt. The Australian reports: "Speaking before his recent health scare, the former president accused Chief Justice Rehnquist of deliberately politicising the system of appointing independent investigators, leading to years of relentless, politically motivated inquiries into his presidency.Clinton dropped the affection with which he usually discusses Reagan and the civility he affords the current President to accuse both men of deliberately using racist electoral appeals to win the White House. Clinton said Rehnquist, Reagan and Bush were part of a far-Right branch of the Republican Party made up of the "spiritual heirs" of white southern racists, who still used the tactics of personal destruction employed by racists in their campaign to block civil rights for blacks. "

3. Now THERE'S some REAL moral clarity for ya!
The Big Dawg don't mince no words.

We need more high-profile people calling out these racist, fascist thugs for what they are. Their "bomb the darkies" agenda should be exposed for what it is, and those who purport to be "Christians" while supporting such an antithetical agenda should be made to feel the shame and hypocrisy implicit in doing so.
