"I can't get too concerned when wingers are making a mt out of a molehill while creating a tempest in a teapot. "

If you think the issue is over blown so be it but you have been working very hard to paint it as something that it is not today. Which leans on the credibility.

If you think Alford's position on the bill is unfounded you have not spent a moment detailing what is wrong with it. You have only been trying to discount his complaints over racism

Even if it is found that his report is wrong, which has not been established or even claimed... it will still be true that Boxer used underhanded racial tactics. Both can be true, one can be true and the other false or both could be false. Your attempt to find a way to paint everything Dem as always good and everything else as rw evil is dopey.

The facts as they are right now are 2

1) Alford has a well researched report that challenges the basis of the bill.
2) Boxer responded to that with an attempt at condescending racial intimidation.

I'm not a winger, you know that. Neither is Alford from what we can gather so far. I had never actually heard of him before this, so he can't be a plant of mine as you stupidly allege. He claims to be an independent and there is lots of evidence of that since he has worked in politics and has worked across party lines to support political ideas that he believes will benefit business. He represents black business interests as the National Chairman of Black Chamber of Commerce which he believes helps business in America and things that are good for all of us regardless of race.

You found one article that attempts to smear Alford, so far, and now your dancing a gig.

Educate yourself.
