I heartily agree with that.  I think this thread has about run its course,
but I'm not the moderator.   (smile)

Well, I reckon, Joseph, that between you, me and Dewey, we've about done
this to death.

There are some who think that there should be no such thing as a blind
conservative, but, we do exist.  There are conservatives who think that all
blind people should just shut up and go away and sit in rocking chairs when
we're not making brooms for $0.50 (fifty cents) an hour.

Well, neither is going to happen.  
Sincerely,
The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!!

things are hunky-dory and that we're rocking the boat.  You'd think he'd
have taken the time to know that wasn't true, since he's using it as an
example of the DOJ wasting its time.  Bad on him, I say.

Yes, Mr. Limbaugh, the DOJ has made it quite clear that they are not
concerned about racially-motivated voter intimidation, as long as the
intimidator is not white.  Yes, that makes them (not us) bigots.  However,
that does not make the DOJ's action wrong in this instance, since the law
requires that the universities do what they were not doing.
