When there was a buzz made over Roland Burris being appointed to Barack Obama's vacate seat the forer ex black panther member Jesse White made a long boring speech about if people don't back off from trying to block the appointment of Roland Burris there will be hell to pay.

The Chicago black caucus is back at their racial crap telling people if they know what is good for them they better back off trying to get Roland Burris dethroned from his very new Jr senator seat,appears it just don't matter to the black caucus that Roland Burris is political corrupted and has dirty hands.

They are mostly right the political corrupted politicians want their own corrupted pal's in the Burris seanate seat to do their dirty work,but it is not a race thing,it is a political corrupted thing in Chicago in both white and black, corruption is no respector of skin color nor gender.

The City Council's Black Caucus on Thursday demanded an end to the “feeding frenzy” surrounding U.S. Senator Roland Burris (D-Ill.) and threatened to retaliate against the parade of elected officials who continue to demand Burris' resignation.

That's EXACTLY why Blagojevich chose him. He KNEW that like that would get behind him and the democrats wouldn't dare to keep him out based solely on the color of his skin. I seriously doubt Harry Reid would have backed down so quickly if he wasn't be attacked by the Black Caucus and every other pro-black group on the planet. Still, all the crap they throw out there won't matter now. Burris committed PERJURY, a CRIME, and needs to be impeached.

Right on Roland Burris is a dead corrupted fish in the mucky waters of Chicago,Obama wanted the Roland Burris saga out of front page new so it would not dirty up any more his big Washington D.C. bash and so it was Roland Burrs was appointment which going in was a very stupid move on the part of the democrats party.
They are going to force a special election for the seat and this time I hope the Chicago voters keep their hands in their pockets and vote for a person that will be a part of cleaning up their deep corruption and I don't give a hang nail about the color of the person skin, I'm concerned about the content of the person heart and it better not be corupted Jessy Jackson Jr.

The Black Caucus sounds like another form of the mob. And surely, Obama has no problems with them. It takes people's minds off what he is doing to turn our country upside down for a few moments.

Are they trying to make this an issue about race? It's time we quit playing the race card when it comes to every little thing. As my wife points out, everything is not about race. Sure, race does play more of a role in the grand scheme of things than I wish it did, for sure for sure.

But this issue, I assure you, is not about race. It is about the removal of a man from office whose seat was tainted from the getgo, who lied under oath about whether or not he had been contacted by Blago's people.

This is a man who should step aside for the good of his party, the good of the state, the good of the country.

Mr. Burris, you perjured yourself. It's time for you to go.
