re: #381 OhCrapIHaveACrushOnSarahPalin

The world’s most egregious misnomer.

Nonwhite children were force-bused all over the planet before court-ordered ends to segregation. It also wasn’t as widespread as the rw likes to claim — in fact, most school districts complied with the Brown decision except those packed with rightwing bigots.

That said, I am more or less against the busing solution, having grown up in one of the white areas and then put on some stupid bus to the low income school (read: predominately nonwhite) for band and gifted student class.

Totally absurd, and not worth it.

The Gaza flotillas are packed with cranks who wouldn’t know a “freedom ride” from a hole in the ground.

Yes, but those cranks proclaim their loyalty to leftist causes and even quote Dr. King. That they know as little about who Martin Luther King Jr. really was as Sarah Palin knows about Ronald Reagan doesn’t mean they are not of the left. It just means they are ignorant and indecent. That does not mean their sentiments animate all or even most on the left in America, however.
