How do you know that they were black? Bush and his cronies screwed over more than just the blacks in N.O

They are dumbocrats, where were they doing the Bush years when he was screwing up the country? NOW all of the sudden they want to break from the party and act like they got a pair......I really believe that this country needs a REAL third party.

You clearly have no clue whatsoever. Just like the Affirmative Action President.
And affirmative action happened for decades before that. When ony white males would get the jobs.

How can you not understand a simple question. The person claimed threats were up 400%. Then said its due to racism. So obviously that would be non-blacks. Bush got death threats as well. I was just asking if they were all from racists too.

And I can claim that Bush's death threats were up 900% and made entirely by green aliens from another planet and have just as much proof as this yellow DC journalist. Claims without proof are just opinions, nothing more.

What do you want to do, read the actual threats themselves? Somehow I doubt you apply this same level of unusual scrutiny to other things.

Actually, I did understand the question and that was my reply. I make a little clearer for you.....NO! Bush got threats from everyone based on his assinine policies. What I was referring to was b/c of his inaction during the Katrina mess many blacks were pizzed off at him, but there were also muslims b/c of his views on Islam, and of course whites for various other reasons. People hated Bush for many reasons and I can imagine having Cheney...excuse me DARTH VADER has to be the most hated VP in american history

Did I make myself clear?
