He used that phrase more than once (on more than one occasion).

Italian mafia doesn't count. They consider themselves minorities and victims of anglo culture as well. They're also more often than not democrats, although I read Cianci had no party affiliation.

Yes there are corrupt white mayors. But it sure seems a lot more blatant and frequent with African Americans. They start thinking they're above the law. If anyone objects, they just shout, "RACISM," just as you did when BCSpace reported on the story. Then the accusations go away and they're back to theft as usual.

Part of why I can't give you good statistics on this is that the antiwhite community has for years successfully forced sociologist to contaminate white crime numbers with hispanics. Just look at the Travon Martin case. They insisted for some time that George Zimmerman was white. I'm sure that crime counted as a crime committed by a white man when in fact George Zimmerman is clearly hispanic.
And when the confederates saw Jackson standing fearless as a stone wall the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

He's in the mafia?

Sorry. I didn't think your racism was that extensive. Italians aren't white. Got it. Jews and Irish as well, I presume? What about Eastern Europeans? I think Blagojevich is a Serb-American. Would he have counted? I guess there's always Dan Walker.

Since you are only counting people who can attend olde fashioned West Virginian KKK rallies out of costume, vote Republican, and probably hail from non-urban areas, like this corrupt politician, I guess we'll go with this instead:

In case this guy is a closet nigger-lover, there's always Charles White. He's a sec of state, not mayor, but in addition to having "white" as his last name, he also is famous for trying to suppress minority votes like a responsible citizen should. He was convicted on multiple counts of perjury and voter fraud, so there's that.

They're also more often than not democrats, although I read Cianci had no party affiliation.


Cianci was a Republican for years who relabeled himself independent in order to maintain political office.

Mayors are more often than not Democrats. Democrats control the urban areas that have mayoral offices. If you are just looking at political corruption in general, Republicans do quite well for themselves.

Who ever heard of New Orleans (universally known as "The Big Easy") being called the "Chocolate City"?

Let me ask it this way. What north city doesn't have a white mayor up to his eyes in corruption?


I've just named three above. Can you name me any?

Trenton New Jersey mayor Tony Mack

Baltimore Mayor Sheila Dixon

Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick

Washington D.C. mayor Vincent Gray

Detroit Mayor Coleman Young
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coleman_Young#Corruption, see the section on corruption

Philadelphia Mayor John F. Street

I know we're talking mayors, but how could I leave out Congressman William "Dollar Bill" Jefferson D-LA

William (Bill) Jefferson is alleged to have accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes to help broker high-tech business deals in Nigeria. The list of allegations against Jefferson is beyond description and includes numerous occasions where he funneled private and public funds to himself and his family members. In addition to being caught on tape discussing his illegal deals, the FBI search of his home uncovered $90,000 in cash stuffed in his freezer.

In fairness Nagin did refer to NO as "chocolate city."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chocolate_City_speech

It's a positive term. Why some white folk even like chocolate. Why, I'd be willing to bet even ajax eats it. Or does he confine himself to white chocolate, which isn't really chocolate?

But maybe some of our conservatives here will try to make "glorious mosaic" or even "rainbow" sound bad.

Now you're making up stories Lulu, just like your cousin Manti Teo. Now go to bed. You've got a lot of liberals here depending on you going to work tomorrow and paying enough taxes to fund their disability and social security, and a few hundred thousand dollars for each mayor to keep in his freezer.
And when the confederates saw Jackson standing fearless as a stone wall the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Since most people here are exmormons, why don't you try some tea?

I prefer chocolate, especially nibbling on the long, hard, thick kind.
