Helps me keep on my diet, anyway...

More opportunities to grandstand on MLK day...

“Candidate for governor Tom "Swazee''s" here,” said Rev. Sharpton, completely mangling the Nassau County Executive’s name. So Nassau county executive Tom Suozzi had his name mangled. Then he was called on the carpet.

Charged Bertha Lewis of the ACORN housing group: “Nassau County is the third most segregated county in this country and you sir are the county executive.”
(Well, ma'am, if it were up to Ray Nagin, New Orleans would be the first most segregated).

And then, in a unbelievable fit of amnesia, the HBIC pipes in:

“We have a culture of corruption, we have cronyism we have incompetence I predict to you that this administration will go down on history as one of the worst that has ever governed out country.”

Clinton actually got an easy question. “I need you to tell us what distinguishes Democrats from Republicans right now,” she was asked.

Clinton's answer was provocative.

Said Clinton, “When you look at the way the House of Representatives has been run, it has been run like a plantation and you know what I'm talking about..."
Lady (and I use that term quite loosely in this instance), by using the word, "plantation," you must mean the way it was run prior to 1994; and the way that your party is still run to this day. By the way, Hillary, was there by any chance a black kettle in front of you when you said that?
