As the nation celebrated the birthday and legacy of Dr. Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. both Hillary Clinton and New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin were cited for inappropriate comments:
During a church service, Hillary Clinton said "the House of Representatives is run like a 'plantation'" - comparing the Republican's control of the House to a plantation where slaves (Democrats) are silenced and have no voice. She was clearly trying to work the largely black audience into a frenzy.
New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin spoke during an MLK event as well and he said: "this city will be a chocolate city...predominantly an African American city...just the way God wanted it to be." When asked by a white reporter to clarify his comments he said: "How do you make chocolate? You mix it with 'white milk'".
Things that make you go HMMM?

I had a great time last night!
Is it just me or have Clinton and Nagin gotten a relative pass so far? I haven't seen/heard much fallout yet.
Today, I listened to Sean Hannity on the radio and he is trying to keep heat on this issue. The mainstream liberal media will definitely give them an "easy pass" - not surprised! When Pat Robertson made comments about Sharon's heart attack being a judgement by God...the media had a field day. There is clearly a double standard...they should judge with the same measure they use!
