Results are in and Cochran won 50.9% to 49.1%. Few things are ever that close in Mississippi other than the genomes of married couples.
The news cycle after Chris McDaniel lost this Mississippi Senate primary I find very strange. The talking heads say this is about White Republicans reaching out to African Americans and bringing them into the Republican fold, in Mississippi no less.
How patently absurd. This is about African Americans coming out in an open primary to do what is necessary to keep another Tea Party Right-wing nutcake seeped in racism out of the Senate. PERIOD.
Gosh… So very much of our news since we handed it over to cable misses the first premise when arriving at their conclusions. Share.
Not only in courtrooms all across Mississippi are there confederate flags hanging from everything including draped from judges podiums, but defense lawyers and prosecutors deck themselves out wearing confederate flag ties, belt buckles, boots, brief cases, lapel pins and socks. They also have the 10 Commandments plastered on the walls. With commandment two clearly stating that:
“I, Jehovah, thy God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me.”
That belongs in a court of law? No it belongs in an Sharia Law courtroom in Saudi Arabia along with the rest of the 10 commandments. And please, NO IDOLS, NO SWEARING, NO WORK ON SUNDAYS, NO DISRESPECTING and especially NO COVETING!
That new Buick next door looks good! Said Gladys on her way to Hell…
