Seriously, this is a pretty big deal because the media made it one. Front page MSN stuff. You know as well as anyone that people are going to read the headlines and pass judgement based on what they read. Doesn't make it right, but it's how people are. You may use critical thinking (now I'm using Spencisms) when looking at something like this and dismiss it as nothing more than a politician targeting a specific group to get their vote. Most people don't put as much thought into things, especially all those dumbass rednecks down in the buttcrack of America (now I'm using JohnnyDisms).

That's true. Probably why those smartass bluenecks in the egghead center of America keep voting for the Barney Franks, and Kerrys, etc. But, since the regions have their peculiarities, what MSN thinks is a big deal might not impress the buttcrackers, and what Bentley says to them is, in its way, comparable to what Franks says to the Eastern airheads, and Bentley may shock the MSNers and get re-elected. Of course, the MSNers would prefer Jimmy's demand that he immediately be thrown out of office.

yup, me and the MSNers see eye to eye.
uhhhh.......ok
BTW - read an article last week on Eric Holder. there was some crime against a black kid, maybe in georgia and holder dropped everything to go down there. His office stated something like " Mr Holder, as black man, thought it was important for him to be there" .
My immediate thought? He should be thrown out. he is making decisions based on race. He is showing preferential treatment to a case based on race, illegal.

The difference between Holder and Bentley, at this point, is that Holder is politically ACTING preferentially. Until Bentley does, there is no comparison here.
