Thoughts from a Yellow Dog Democrat living in Olympia, in the great BLUE state of Washington

I am a liberal because it is the political philosophy of freedom and equality. And I am a progressive because it is the political path to a better future. And I am a Democrat because it is the political party that believes in freedom, equality and progress. -- Digby

My Letter to CNN's "Live Edition"

What is wrong with King? How could he let this comment go by unchallenged?

MEHLMAN: ...The NAACP unfortunately in the 2000 campaign likened the president to James Byrd, who was a racist killer in east Texas, who the president brought to justice.

Since Byrd was the victim and I'm positive the NAACP knew this fact, I doubt they were calling him a racist like James Byrd.

Please challenge these liars. When you let these lies pass without comment, it's like either you're too stupid to know it's a lie or you're giving some credence to it. Obviously, there was NO truth to this statement.

Clean up your act!
