(AP) - Former United Nations ambassador and Atlanta mayor Andrew Young will be the public spokesman for a group organized with backing from Wal-Mart Stores Inc. that defends the world's largest retailer against mounting attacks from its critics. Working Families for Wal-Mart, a group of community leaders from across the country, was set to announce Monday that Young will be the chairman of its 16 member steering committee formed in December to counter charges from two union-backed groups that are pressuring Wal-Mart to improve wages and benefits.

"But you see, those are the people who have been overcharging us selling us stale bread and bad meat and wilted vegetables. And they sold out and moved to Florida. I think they've ripped off our communities enough. First it was Jews, then it was Koreans and now it's Arabs; very few black people own these stores." How refreshing to see that Andrew Young feels no need to hide his bigotry from public display. Wonder whether he also believes in and preaches the "blood libel" accusations...

No doubt the DNC will continue to pay him whatever amount he loses by doing this.

"Former Atlanta mayor, U.N. ambassador, dope smoking, drug dealing Andrew Young, who along with EX-President Jimmy Carter was responsible for the fall of Rhodesian and its conversion by Marxist terrorist Robert Muggabe into a pit of disgusting backwardness and murder, has left his appointment to the shake-down extortion group known as Working Families for Wal-Mart."
Jesse Jackson & the Rev Al Sharpton are deeply saddened.

Who says the Democrats are weak on security?
They have declared war on Wal-Mart.
Whose bright idea was this? Should somebody tell them there are MORE Wal-Mart shoppers than voters in the US?

Last time I saw Al Gore he was standing in front of a Walmart hailing it as a great American company to work for. I see a huge flip flop coming.

Andrew Young as Carter's rep was largely responsible for the Iran of today not to mention giving Arafat decades to steal billions of dallars.
Thank a bunch Andy for all you did to empower Islamic radicals.
