I am surprized that while the late Rosa Parks body is still warm, the 
right-wing has used her
death to continue to politicize the just civil rights struggle.  I would like 
to know what Mario
Goveia and Chris Vaz have done to promote civil rights and compare that with 
what Jesse Jackson
and Julian Bond, etc.  While Jackson and Sharpton do not qualify to be 
canonized, they have stood
for African-Americans, unlike Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaigh who use words 
like shake-down artist
and other epithets to describe them and which Chris repeats here.  Jackson and 
Sharpton both
apologized publicly for their Hymie and Twana episode, respectively. But the 
right-wing who wants
to continue to deny African-Americans equal opportunity in practice, continues 
with red herrings.

Regards,
George
