Judging from Gore getting 90% of the black vote I don't think the GOP convention masquerade fooled any of them.
Bush apparently wants Condaleeza Rice to run foreign policy. Is that because she's black, one wonders, or because she's mot qualified? Watching her I have a hard time seeing her as the next Kissinger. And whether a top general like Colin Powell is the best man for Secretary of State is another question. Would he get the job on his name and color? Or because he is the best man for the job?
Whatever. I just taliked to a top-top heavyweight lawyer friend of mine and he now fully expects Gore to win. He thinks the re-count will net Gore about 20,000 votes, more than enough to withstand the absentee military vote. He also believes Gore actually won the election fairly (by vote count) though we both agreed Republicans will never see it that way. They will always feel ripped off. Either side will, depending on who loses.

My daughter participated in a annual gala function in a Texas city last year..... there was not one minority in the group

Excuse my ignorance of what constitutes a minority in your view. (is it simply based on race, religion, etc.?)

I am truly shocked by your revelation.

Here are some more shockers.

Are you aware that a non-Jew cannot become a citizen of Israel?
Are you aware that the congressional Black Caucus doesn't have a single white member?
Are you aware that of the final ten candidates for Miss America not one was a lesbian?
Are you aware that the Catholic Church does not allow Protestants or Muslims to become priests?
Are you aware that Chelsea C. never dated a black man even though her mother tried to fix her up with one?
Are you aware that the Black Muslims do not allow whites to become members?
Are you aware that it is nearly impossible for a non-Japanese person to become a citizen of Japan?

About our current president and his wife, Ahab and Jezebel Clinton.

Subject: A letter to the President from Eric Jowers

Whether you love him or hate him...read this "letter," ...it's too good to pass by. Hate it as you may, but you can't argue with this letter to the President. This needed to be said a long time ago.
Eric Jowers, a retired Army Officer, who served as public affairs officer at Fort Rucker from 1989 to 1991, wrote this letter. He now lives in Ozark, Alabama.

Dear Mr. President:

It's not about sex. If it were about sex, you would be long gone. Just like a doctor, attorney or teacher who had sex with a patient, client or student half his age, you would have violated the ethics of your office and would be long gone. Just like a Sergeant Major of the Army, Gene McKinney who, though found not guilty, was forced to
resign amid accusations of sexual abuse.

Remember the Air Force General you wouldn't nominate to be Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff because he freely admitted to an affair almost 15 years before, while he and his wife were separated? Unlike you, he was never accused of having a starry-eyed office assistant his daughter's age perform oral sex on him while he was on the phone
and his wife and daughter were upstairs.

If it were about sex, you should be subjected to the same horrible hearings that Clarence Thomas was subjected to because of the accusations of Anita Hill. The only accusation then was that he talked dirty to her; he didn't even leave semen stains on her dress.

No, it's not about sex. It's about character. It's about lying. It's about arrogance. It's about abuse of power. It's about dodging the draft and lying about it. When caught in a lie by letters you wrote, you concocted a story that nobody believed. But we excused it and looked away. It's about smoking dope, and lying about it. "I didn't inhale" you said. Sure, and when I was 15 and my buddies and I swiped a beer from an unwatched refrigerator, we drank from it, but we didn't swallow.

"I broke no laws of the United States," you said.
That's right, you smoked dope in England or Norway or Moscow; where you were demonstrating against the USA.

You lied, but we excused it and looked away. It's about you selling overnight stays in the White House to any
foreigner or other contributor with untraceable cash. It's about Whitewater and Jim and Susan McDougal and Arkansas, GOV. Jim Guy Tucker and Vincent Foster and Jennifer Flowers and Paula Jones and Karen Willey and nearly countless others. It's about stealing the records from Fosters office while his body was still warm and putting them in your bedroom and "not noticing them" for two years.

It's about illegal political contributions. It's about you and Al Gore soliciting contributions and selling influence at Buddhist temples and in the same Oval Office where Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt led their countries through the dark days of wars that threatened the very existence of our nation. But we excused you
and looked away.
It's about hiding evidence from Ken Starr, refusing to testify, filing legal motions, coaching witnesses, obstructing justice and delaying Judge Starr's inquiry for months and years, and then complaining that it has gone on too long. The polls agreed. Thank goodness that Judge Star didn't read the polls, play politics or excuse you and look away. He held on to the evidence like a
tenacious bulldog.
Your supporters say that you've confessed your wrong doings and asked for our forgiveness. Listen, what you said on TV the night you testified to the grand jury was not a confession; overwhelming evidence is not a confession at all.
Not that it would make a lot of difference. A murderer who contritely confesses his crime is still a murderer. When your "confession" didn't sell, even to your friends, you became more forthcoming. Maybe someday you'll confess more, but probably not. You've established such pattern of lying that we can't believe you anymore. Neither can your cabinet, the Congress or any of the leaders of the nations of the world. When a leader's actions defame and
emasculate our country as profoundly as yours have, it's no longer a personal matter, as you claim. It's no longer a matter between you, your family and your God.

By the way, I don't believe for a minute that Hillary was unaware of your sexual misadventures, abuses of power and pattern of lying. She has been a party to your wrong doings since Whitewater and Jennifer Flowers just as surely as she lied about the Rose law firm's billings
and hid the Vincent Foster evidence in your bedroom for two years. Why? So she could share in the raw power that your office carries. The two of you probably lied to Chelsea, but that is a matter among you, your family and your God.

Remember the sign over James Carvill's desk during the 1992 campaign? It said, "It's the economy, stupid!" Place this sign over your desk: "It's about character, stupid!"

No, it's not about sex, Mr. President. If it were, you would be long gone. It's about character; but we have to live with your filth, lies and arrogance for a while longer. Your lies, amorality and lack of character have been as pervasive as they have been despicable, so we have no reason to believe that you will quietly resign and go away. You'll count on half-truths and spin doctors to see you through, the country be damned. It has always worked before. We excused you and looked the other way.

No more, we've had enough. You betrayed us enough. You have made every elected official, minister, teacher, diplomat, parent and grandparent in the country apologize for you and explain away your actions. Now go away, and let us show them that our country was not without morals. It was just that you were. Let us show them that
America was not the problem. William Jefferson Clinton was.

Go away, Mr. President. Leave us alone. And when you leave, know that your legacy to the United States of America will be a stain on the office of the President that is as filthy as the stain on Monica's dress. It will take a lot of scrubbing to make it clean again.

If you agree with this letter send it to as many people as possible! Remember, this is our Commander in Heat!!!

And this is the man that Al Gore, one of the current candidates for president, called "the greatest president ever".
