Virginia Scumbag
George Allen on Monday denied allegations by a college football teammate and
another former acquaintance that the senator used "nigger" to refer to blacks during and after his time
at the University of Virginia in the early 1970s.

Kendall Shelton, 53, a radiologist said Macaca nicknamed him "Wizard" because of the similarity
of his name to that of Robert Shelton, a former imperial wizard of the Ku Klux Klan. He also said
in 1974 he, Allen and a third friend were hunting deer. After the deer was killed, Shelton said,
Allen cut off the doe's head, asked for directions to the home of the nearest black person
and put the head into the black person's mailbox.

I think Senator Macaca needs to step down and let a less-racist Republican run in his place.

If nothing else he has inspired the minority vote (huge in No. Virginia) to get out and vote for Webb.

Turnout should make the difference.

The macaca thing was bad enough, but in this day and age getting the "n" word tagged to you is pure poison.

"[Sheldon Adelson has] been getting rich faster than, as far as we can tell, anyone in history. Over the past two years Adelson has made $23.6 million a day — just under $1 million a hour. At that pace he’ll eclipse Bill Gates as the richest man in the country sometime in 2012."
