Two Hot Topics

The Junkyard Blog has two articles that are worthy of notice: #1 - Rwanda bq. Bill Clinton knew about it, but did nothing to stop it. bq. Richard Clarke knew about it, and actively thwarted attempts to do anything about it, fearing blowback would harm President Clinton. It's a pity he didn't apply that standard to his own skewed screed against President Bush. bq. I guess America's first black president couldn't get worked up enough about 800,000 actual black people getting slaughtered to do more than talk, but he could get worked up enough about a much smaller genocide in which the victims were white to conduct an outside-the-UN bombing campaign to stop it (that would be the Kosovo affair, in case you're wondering). #2 - White "Air America" hurts Black Radio Talent bq. This is priceless: Al Franken & Co's new "Air America" liberal talk network will probably not challenge Rush, Hannity and the rest of the conservative talk titans for cultural dominance, but it will result in job losses for black radio talent.
