Ron, it never crossed my mind for a second that you would like Danforth. I knew you were just posting at as general information. It just so happened that I remembered that he was the guy who got Clarence Thomas put on the Supreme Court and I always thought that was such a terrible thing to do not only to the country but also to the African-Americans.

The African-Americans get one seat on the Supreme Court for sure. And to put a buffoon on there, when African-Americans have to deal with so much racism as it is, was a really ugly thoughtless thing to do. Look who the Democrats put on, Thurgood Marshall, somebody the African-Americans can be proud of, great man.

And the Republicans put on the dumbest guy in the world and a classic stereotype perpetrated by racists. My black friends have told me in the past that when a black person acts up on the bus every black person on the bus feels self-conscious. If a white person acts up it's on that person.

I have always hated Danforth for doing that to the African-Americans. If he had been any sort of stand up guy he would've put an African-American on the Supreme Court that the African-American community could have been proud of.

I've Loathed the Republicans my whole life because they pull that shit, time after time after time.

Ron you are easy to figure out and one of the most solid guys on these threads. Everyone knows that.
