" Hey Yada Yada... Are you implying that the Democrats of today are pro-slavery??? Do your homework one time. The entire south was conservative democrat until the Civil Rights Movement when the southern democrats began abondoning the party to become Republicans because the northern democrats were pro-civil rights. It was the Goldwater-Johnson election that cemented the shift from the conservative democrats of the south to the now conservative republicans. It was a valient effort on your part, but gimme a break. "

" Folks, ignore all the fibbers talking about Republicans abandoning Alberto Gonzales. Here's the truth: On June 11, 2007 a Senate vote on cloture to end debate on the resoution failed (60 votes are required for cloture). The vote was 53 to 38 with 7 not voting and 1 (Stevens R-AK) voting "present" (one senate seat is vacant). Seven Republicans, most of the usual suspects, Sununu, Hagel, Collins, Specter, Snowe, Smith and Coleman voted to end debate; Independent Democrat Joseph Lieberman voted against ending debate. No Democrat voted against the motion. Not voting: Biden (D-DE), Brownback (R-KS), Coburn (R-OK), Dodd (D-CT), Johnson (D-SD), McCain (R-AZ), Obama (D-IL). BTW, remember when Janet Reno, Clinton's Attorney General, came to work on her first day? She fired all 95 U.S. Attorneys. That was before she ordered the murder of the 80 men, women, children and babies of the Branch Davidians (no, we haven't forgotten that). "

" Civil War: Democrats, pro slavery. Republicans, against slavery. Democrats in 1950s South, particularly Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia denied blacks Constitutional rights. Republican president turned out the national guard to enforce blacks' rights. Ku Klux Klan was comprised largely of Civil War pro-slavery Democrats. Senator Robert "Sheets" Byrd (D - WV) is equally at home in the Democrat Party and the Ku Klux Klan. DNC Chairman Dean made public disparaging remarks about black hotel employees. Democrat Black Congressman (Jefferson) accused Democrat Speaker Pelosi of racism. Democrat Senators Clinton and Obama (combined 75% white) feigned "old negro" dialects to curry favor with blacks in Selma. Obama even publicly proclaimed the march in Selma was the basis of his conception, that he would not even exist if not for Selma; in reality, Obama was three years old at the time, being raised by his white grandparents in Hawaii. "

" I'm interested to hear you back up your statement saying Obama is a racist. You imply Powell, Rice and Gonzalez are the only people within the Bush Administration that are being attacked. First of all it is the Democrats and most Republicans doing the attacking. Secondly, it is everyone within the administration who put America in the awful situation we are in now that is being attacked; not just the minorities. Criticizing a person for being terrible at their job does not make a person racist. "

" This is an awfully sad comments page. Anyone who is paying attention can see that the Bush administration and Alberto Gonzales tampered with the justice department for political reasons. They fired lawyers, all of whom received positive performance evaluations, because they filed suits against corrupt Republicans instead of leaving them alone like the Bush administration would have preferred. Have any of you noticed that the majority of Republicans in congress are calling for Gonzales to resign? To accuse Democrats of making irresponsible personal attacks is ridiculous! Anyone with common sense, Democrat OR Republican, is calling for this joke to resign. I'd wager a guess and say that you who have commented so far are so blindingly conservative that you condemn Democrats without even thinking. I offer you this advice. Read some articles about the Gonzales scandal, read the remarks made by Democratic and Republican senators, read up on the ever-increasing body of evidence that points to his political meddling, and then come back here and tell us all what you think about Gonzales and the current make-up of the justice department. "

" Colin Powell left office because he did not want to continue being a cronie for the current administration. "

" The dems attacking current offices they don't hold. Hillary attacking big business through her comments about Alito. How much was Bill making on those big business speeches?? Also, how much did she make in that blind trust off big oil and Wal-Mart?? This is the typical hypocritical rhetoric that is continually spilled from the left. The problem is people are too dumb to see it and cheer for it. "

" seems the dems should look at themselves, how long have they controlled the house and senate this time. . . .and they are already in over their heads. what a bunch of misdirected, tree hugging losers along with their 'so-called' leader pelosi from the left coast. that woman couldn't lead a hungry man to a dining room! "

" Democrats proudly proclaim to be the champions of minorities, yet, when given the opportunity, they always viciously, with malace, attack innocent, high ranking minority appointees; Colin Powell, Condoleeza Rice and Alberto Gonzales, to name a few. The Democrats drove General Powell out of office and they will not stop their personal attacks until Secretary Rice and Attorney General Gonzales resign under fire. It is quite clear that Democrats are racists, Obama more than most. "

" Surprise, surprise. Anyone else they haven't attacked? That is the very reason why some decent qualified people do not get into politics and run for office. They know they will be attacked with truths and untruths. Whatever gets the votes. That is the Demos mantra. Attack attack attack. Unless our security is involved. Then they want us to be silent. "

" Democrats pandering to trial lawyers. What a shocker! "
