That's got to be reason enough for all of us to just try to get along.


I feel so bad for the kids black and white - there is just no reason on earth that they should have been subjected to this.

If Rev Al and Jesse are a cottage industry, the folks that put out the product that Al and Jesse try to make a buck on must be a damned multi-national sweatshop.

did anyone see the contract that was signed? nope. said it before, this business is private, and belongs to the business owner, not the public. get over it.

How dispicable. How rotten. How disgusting.

This summer camp paid to use the pool - to deny them the right they purchased by saying those children would 'change the complexion' of the pool is racist and evil.

I hope that this pool is picketed and I hope that everyone who is a member of such a racist organization has their names printed in the local paper. Anyone supporting this swim club ought to be ashamed of themselves.

The swim club accepted their money - they refunded it back after seeing the color of the campers skins. When they accepted the money the club ceased being a private entity - the campers had full right to the pool.

I'd at least try to get my money back, and raise a stink.

They are refunding the camp.

I wonder if this is the same John Duesler;

I found it interesting I was taken to an Obama fund raising website and thought "maybe where there is smoke there is at least friction." But, I didn’t want to jump to conclusions. So I Googled “Dr. John G. Duelser, Jr.” and “Valley Swim Club” and struck gold: http://www.thevalleyclub.com/downloads (broken link) / ... rttime.pdf . The good doctor’s full name & title is at the bottom of the form.

Same guy. How odd.

Update: The man who made this statement, Valley Swim Club president John Duesler, has the same name as the man who ran the O-Positive Obama campaign blood drive in Philly before Barack Obama’s inauguration. That information comes from — of all places — Democratic Underground.

Looks like the moron who said this was an Obama fund raiser. Ironic.
