Is This Racist?

What would you think if someone had said, but “Al Sharpton failed to use the required current catchphrase, “up-or-down vote,” but I’m sure his Democrat masters will give him credit for a sincere effort”?

This was in reference to Thomas Sowell, specifically to his recent article on the judicial nominee hold up in the senate. I fully admit that I may be biased here because Thomas Sowell is someone I highly admire, so I take criticism of him seriously.

Racist or not racist, it is yet another example of how liberals tend to use racial overtones when they speak of dissenting minorities.

India Trip Day 6

Posted on May 3rd, 2005 in General by tavaresforby || 6 Comments

I am back from India now and I have to say, it has been an interesting journey. I traveled a little on Saturday, but not much. I was really tired. I visited a couple of local temples and drove by some governmental offices. This time around, I took more pleasant pictures of India. And please keep in mind I am no photographer.

More pictures.
