OK, America is on the verge of spending some $190B more of our hard earned money on the Bush/Haliburton/Blackwater War with (Democratic approval). That's for FY 2008. If Democrats have their way, it will be more of the same in 2009, 2010,2011, 2012, 2013 and beyond. Many black Americans are demanding lawmakers get things done to address real terrorism - "terrorism at home."

Dear Mr. Chairman:
In light of what may seem like good news today coming out of Jena, Louisiana, Governor Kathleen Blanco may be too late to mend race relations in that small town. The cat is already out of the bag.
Even though LaSalle Parish District Attorney Reed Walters announced that he will not pursue the case against 17-year old Mychal Bell in adult criminal court, the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazis have crept into the festering situation feeding on racial tension.
