The Old Civil Rights Vanguard.

They are past their usefulness and shelf life, so they've been tagged with the name “Civil Rights Industrial Complex” because if if weren't for Civil Rights, most of the CBC wouldn't be elected Dog Catchers.

Isn't it amazing how frihtened some still become when they figure out that we can learn if we choose to.

Your Daddy was so right – that ought to encourage everyone to learn. Anyone who wants to know anything has nothing to do but read to discover it.

Excellent post. The good ol' boy network isn't just for entrenched white men. The Civil Rights baby boomers in the CBC are clutching to power with all their strength, much to the detriment of their constituents.

Speak on it!!! The CBC did both Braun and McKinney wrong. I'm about to channel Denny Green. Thank you for reminding us about the CBC because the CBC are quite “selective” in who they support.

Watching Rush on HB yesterday was hard to watch. All I hear is empty rhetoric. Very disingenuous.
