If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)
Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.
Has anyone ever seen a *flattering* photo of her?

You GO girl!
Talk about projection! Liberals truly hate themselves, and are thus delusional and unfit to hold elected office.

INDIANAPOLIS - Rep. Julia Carson would have spent over $816 billion in the First Session of the 107th Congress, if all legislation that she sponsored or co-sponsored had passed, according to a report released by the nonpartisan National Taxpayers Union Foundation.
“At a time of fiscal concern we need prudent, efficient, and creative leaders. Carson obviously cares little of Hoosier’s financial hardships, and just wants to make government bigger, and create more spending - instead of focusing on lowering taxes and creating more financial benefits for Hoosier families,” Kittle said.
Nationwide, only 20 more representatives would have spent more than Rep. Carson. Of the 20 Congressman who proposed more spending than Carson, were the most liberal members of Congress, including Jim McDermott and David Bonior who went to Iraq to meet with Saddam Hussein to protest President Bush’s position on the war.
In Indiana, she surpassed the next closest congressional representative in proposed spending by nearly $790 billion. Baron Hill (D) was the closest congressman in proposed spending with $26.83 billion. Rep. Carson surpassed Hill by 3000%.
“Of all Hoosiers in congress, Julia Carson is the biggest spender – and no one even came close,” Kittle pointed out.
The National Taxpayers Union Foundation also released its ratings of U.S. Representatives in the First Session of the 107th Congress based on every vote that significantly affects taxes, spending, debt, and regulatory burdens on consumers and taxpayers. The “Taxpayer Score” measures the strength of support for reducing spending and regulation and opposing higher taxes.
Rep. Carson received a grade of “F”.
As the lowest ranking official in the state, finishing with a score of 10 percent, the National Taxpayers Union Foundation classifies Rep. Carson as a big spender.
In fact, Rep. Carson voted for every tax increase proposed under the Clinton administration, but; has voted against every tax cut proposed since President Bush took office.
“It is shameful for Congresswoman Carson to rank among the worst spenders in congress,” Kittle commented. “Like a kid in a candy store, Carson has showed little restraint, and little to no discretion when voting for spending increases. Thank goodness there are enough people in Congress who disagree with Julia, or we would be in a world of financial hurt.”
The National Taxpayers Union Foundation is a nonpartisan group that promotes itself as a representative of the overburdened American taxpayer. More information about the organization and its detailed reports is available at: http://www.ntu.org.
Is racism behind the Democrat media using the most unflattering pictures of Presidential candidate Bush it could find? CNN, CBS, NBC, and PBS before 9/11 all used the "dork" picture of Bush, where he is in the middle of pronouncing a word. Now they use their second string, stand by picture, that is simply unflattering.
I have never seen them put up any of the myriad of wonderful photos of the President that exist.
No, it's not racism, it's PARTISANSHIP! "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen," quote Democrat Harry Truman.
Well, lady, if you r mom has a terminal illness... what are you doing running for office? taking care of someone with such an illness is a full-time job.
And if she's already passed away, don't you think it better if you sat this one out, rest up a bit from all that caregiving, and then get a real job with real pay? It beats gambling on a political job. Make sure you have some savings before you run for office, make sure you can make it through a debate without bursting into tears...?
Or did you plan getting political office for the sake of easy kickbacks and bribes?
His primary weapon has been the truth.
Hmmm......
