just post your list and dont criticize others lists (unless you really really have to; what i mean is dont argue too much).
anyway, here's my list:
george w. bush - for his efforts to take down the wall of seperation
john ashcroft - for raping our civil liberties
clarence thomas - for being a complete idiot that doesnt know wtf he's doing. his actions makes him look like he's trying to get into the KKK
jesse jackson & al sharpton - for exploiting the black population. they're making african americans seem as 2nd class citizens.

I don't hate any individual. Hate is a self-destroying emotion.
I don't care for our government when it allows some of the things to take place that are currently ongoing. I hate the idea of a Congress that is so party oriented that it plays politics over the will and needs of the people. For example - The current BS over Judicial appointees - Get it over with. The President did what he is required to do by law. He submitted their appointments to Congress - Congress now needs to do its job and needs to continue to do its job in a much more timely manner. I don't give a damn how they vote - I just want them to stand up in the Senate and House and cast their votes - I want the vote polled - they should give the reason behind their vote and that's it - just do their damned job. Our government operates on a system of checks and balances - over the years a lax and lazy legislative branch has forfeited many of its powers to the executive branch. That is a done deal - those powers will never be relinquished. That is no reason for Congress to pout and try to hold the judicial branch hostage and blackmail the executive by refusing to exercises the powers they retain. Congress has total control over government with power of the purse strings - that is more than enough to provide and adequate balance.
As for John Ashcroft - My feelings are the same as those of you I normally disagree with - he is a joke! But his power is totally controlled by the other branches of government. I am hoping, and soon, that the president cuts him loose - he is in no way an asset and is most certainly a liability.
As for the "professionally black blacks" - they are no ones friend but their own bank accounts. It is easy to question why they are allowed to represent the black segment of our population - they have done far more harm than good and - how do you spell hypocrite?
