Bill Clinton
I am in no way a supporter of Clinton, but I must rise to his defense. He thought the remarks of rap singer Sister Souljah (June 14) were terrible and uncalled for. Her remarks urged her black brothers to stop killing each other, and as a change of pace, to take a week and kill whites instead.
Her outrageous and racist remarks ought to be attacked by every American. When Clinton did so, during the obligatory Democrat-nominee pilgrimage to the Rev. Jesse Jackson’s Rainbow Coalition, he was derided by the politically correct racist community.
How idiotic has our level of PC become when it is not acceptable to even criticize any black person for anything whatsoever, however justified. Bravo to Clinton!
