So today Gov. Blaggo nominated Burris for the empty Obama seat. Rush said and I quote,
"I prayed that the nominee would be African-American." Seeing as you represent the entire state of Il Bobby, and not just the African-American population of Il. I as a citizen of Il think that you should be praying for the best man for the job, If any White politician uddered the words. "I'm praying that the nominee be White.", would be on every news station in the country. It's that kind of racism that really gets me mad. Bobby Rush, you are a piece of shit. Secretary of State Jesse White says whoever the Gov picks will not be appointed. But now since the nomination is African-American, Bobby wants Jesse to reconsider. Shit like this makes me sad to be an American, and mad that I wasn't born a black man. Maybe I can get some goddies and have less expectations, and blame all my problems on everyone else but me too.
In a recent political movement that has been overtly racially driven by minority voters, Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Il) announced today that it would be a "national disgrace" if an African-American wasn't put in place of Obama for the Senate seat of Illinios. Have we truly become a country that once again judges men by the color of their skin?
