Incredible.

[An.American.Expatriate]

You forgot to include the Mega Barf Alert!!

[Echo Talon]

I have come to the conclusion that these "columnists" don't believe anything they write and they do it just to get a rise out of us.

[kingu]

I really miss the days when folks said things like 'Worthy opponent - we didn't always see eye to eye, but I'm a better man for the competition.'

The unvarnished truth about Rehnquist

This varnish is more like a heavily pigmented paint.

Bull

[beyond the sea]

Rehnquist, who died last week, spent his career standing at the door of the high court, beating down countless Americans, whether they were black or brown, gay or lesbian, Florida voters ----

Oh yes, those "Floriduh voters".....

lol

[kb2614]

Well, this columnist clinches it. William Rehnquist was an amazing and brilliant Chief Justice. The lamentations of the moonbats should be taken as high praise. The more they hate him, the better he was.

:-)

[Always Right]

You can't go any lower than this. What a piece of shit.

[kcvl]

Derrick Z, you barely waited long enough for Rehnquist's body to get in the ground before trashing him, you imbecile.

Derrick Z. Jackson: The real looters

The Boston Globe
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 2005

snip

Should a husband steal a cancer drug he cannot afford for his dying wife?

No such sympathy is to be extended to big oil. The United States has on its hands a disaster so profound that we have not even begun to seriously count the bodies in the floodwaters. It brings us as close as we may get in our lifetime to places like Bangladesh.

New Orleans is under martial law and will not return to normal for years. Members of the Red Cross, the Coast Guard, the National Guard, police agencies and firefighters are sacrificing time and risking lives to save lives. Texas is opening up its schools for homeless Louisiana children. Generous food wholesalers are giving away their stocks.

In the midst of this charity, big oil looted America. The pumps instantly shot past $3 a gallon, with $4 a gallon well in sight.

In a thinly disguised attempt to act as if it cared about the people wading in the water, Chevron has pledged $5 million to relief efforts. ExxonMobil and Shell have pledged $2 million apiece. British Petroleum and Citgo have pledged $1 million each.

This is nothing next to their wealth.

MOONBAT!

[TommyDale]

My bet is that the guy could have had any number of people help him up the stairs, but he wanted to make a public statement by dragging himself up.

[Mount Athos]

I think this article takes the cake for extreme distortion of truth

[hershey]

Usual Boston Globe drivel.

[Right_in_Virginia]

The media has gone insane. They've become nothing more than rabid, hateful dogs.

[BB2]

Did he mention anywhere in his article that the man who dragged himself up the stairs did it in protest?

[Semper Paratus]

The only issue D. Jackson is ever right about is the cynical way the NCAA and it's member colleges handout athletic scholarships to blacks who enter the college functionally illiterate and go out the same.

But one out of 100 is about par with liberal columnists.

[DoraC]

Most of the article focuses on Rehnquist's opposition to affirmative action. Apparantly, it is a crime to oppose discrimination against whites, nowadays.

[randita]

They barely waited until Rehnquist was buried to unleash this drivel. At least for the pope, they waited a couple of weeks before they trashed his legacy.

[KenmcG414]

All I can say is may Rehnquist RIP. He did his best to slow the nation's slippery slide to the left.

[F16Fighter]

Derrick Z. Jackson

Nevermind.

[rollo tomasi]

Derrick Z. Jackson would have fought for King George III in 1775.

The way our Constitution was drafted by giving States unique rights (And kept the Federal Government out of the way and in a weakened state) would have led Jackson to don the red coat.

Almost every ruling by Rehnquist he fussed about like a little girl were State rights issues.

As for Florida, Rehnquist was correct in ruling that the Supreme Court of Florida is neither the legislator and executive branches of Florida.

I wish Jackson would actually pick up, read and comprehend Florida's and the United States Constitutions.

Jackson's racist rose color glasses are blinding him to the truth about why and how the United States was established.

And if you don't like it go live in Africa.

End of ranting about an ignorant race pimping columnist.
