In other words, Brown is saying that blacks in the 7th District don't care if Farrakhan is a self-avowed racist, anti-Semite and anti-gay bigot. This doesn't surprise me since Amos Brown boasts a photo with him and Farrakhan on his website. Again, the hypocrisy is too much to take. If David Duke made a similar appearance at a white Republican's funeral and endorsed a candidate for public office, there would be protests in the streets from these same quarters.Gary R.

An honest guy enters the business world, works hard without county handouts and fails and you cry foul and declare him unqualified. <BR/>Carson enters the business world, fails while receiving a county handout and you sing her praises and you tout her qualifications. The businessman is a skilled indivugial with a degree and you chastise and call him unqualified. Carson only skills were political connections (she was a state rep while she had the store) she had a high school diploma and you sing praises about her qualification anywhere someone will listen.<BR/>So please tell me, how can Carson fail and be declared a saint by you but when a well-known local businessman fails you do everything but call him Satan.<BR/>Please if you can, make some since of this.indyerniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03817373902728915873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-35003592405776384432008-01-23T21:36:00.000-05:002008-01-23T21:36:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Wilson46201https://www.blogger.com/profile/14214029150233485312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-63780568046513540072008-01-23T21:35:00.000-05:002008-01-23T21:35:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Wilson46201https://www.blogger.com/profile/14214029150233485312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-43797290063422633852008-01-23T21:33:00.000-05:002008-01-23T21:33:00.000-05:00I pray and hope to god that the political machine ...I pray and hope to god that the political machine is not trying to rig another election in favor of Carson.

Since when is the mayor of Indianapolis responsible for organizing a special election in a federal congressional district? I assume that duty falls on our esteemed county clerk, who no doubt relishes yet another opportunity to demonstrate her ability, or perhaps inability, to put together the logistics and manpower to run an election. Considering who is involved and what is at stake it will certainly be interesting to see if the same kind of "gamesmanship" that was reported to have occurred in the Democrat caucus repeats itself in the special election. Can anybody out there verify if the county clerk has this responsibility, or does this duty land in somebody else's lap?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-2215894642392584922008-01-23T21:04:00.000-05:002008-01-23T21:04:00.000-05:00Does anyone besides me think it is strange that we...Does anyone besides me think it is strange that we are only 47 days from the special election and Mayor Ballard has not designated any polling places?

For somebody running for the U.S. Congress, you'd think he would let the voters know whether he's for it or against it."<BR/><BR/>That isn't a relevant point, at least not the way you phrased it Wilson. <BR/><BR/>Are you asking if he has any opinion of the current strategy? That would be relevent since if elected Elrod would have a vote on the matter. Of course you get into the weird quandary of supporting the war versus supporting the troops. How do you support the troops: get them out or give them all the tools they need to get the job done? A true and accurate answer could be very nuanced and in today's soundbite world anything that isn't a yes or no tends to cause problems for voters, the media, and the candidates.<BR/><BR/>If Wilson is asking was Elrod for the Iraq invasion, that doesn't matter. He had no control over that unlike Hilary, McCain, or Edwards to name a few political candidates. Besides any answer is too easily manipulated by after the fact armchair quarterbacking.Wolfrham Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11827518384467441352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-64175722343877332742008-01-23T20:00:00.000-05:002008-01-23T20:00:00.000-05:00Wilson - just another anonymous nobody here but I...Wilson - just another <B>anonymous nobody here </B> but I live and vote in the 7th.<BR/><BR/>So if I've got this correct from you then Andre is an anti-war, high tax and spend Democrat who is/was a Muslim but has never denied or repudiated Louis Farrakhan or the NOI.<BR/><BR/>By the way Wilson, where is our CCC now that the Hovey Street Massacre of women and children has occurred.
