Giant leap in comparisons
Reader comment on: President Bush Is 'Our Bull Connor,' Harlem's Rep. Charles Rangel Claims

Submitted by George Johnson, Jun 7, 2007 17:23

I am no George Bush (the son) fan, however; I think he has no compaison to Bull Connor. Bull Connor appeared to hate and despise blacks. President may be naive, he may bungle some of the actions of his administration, but I do no think he harbors any hatred or animosity toward black people. I am a black American who votes a straight democratic ticket. George Johnson
