Little Green Footballs:Va. Governor McDonnell: Slavery Wasn't "Significant" Enough to MentionUS News | Wed, Apr 7, 2010 [Facing a storm of criticism, even from the newspaper that endorsed him for Governor, Virginia Republican Bob McDonnell told the Washington Post today that the reason why he didn’t mention slavery in his proclamation of “Confederate History Month” was because he doesn’t consider it a significant aspect of the Civil War. ]Wow.McDonnell also said the reason for his declaration was to “promote tourism.”[McDonnell said Tuesday that the move was designed to promote tourism in the state, which next year will mark the 150th anniversary of the start of the war.]Apparently he’s not too interested in promoting tourism by African Americans.LGF: http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/ />The truth is_Not a day goes by that I'm not SO THANKFUL to have a Man of Barack Obama's caliber as Our Presidnet!

What a strange but also incredible TIME we're living in! WoW.The nation's first African-American President is BUSY at work, determined to move this country_OUR country_forward. No doubt, in choosing the next U.S. Supreme Court Justice (whenever another vacancy occurs) Obama will demonstrate what he's demonstrated time-and-time again_that he is thoughful and deliberative decision-maker. In contrast to the GOP Gov. of Virginia who, apparently is BUSY trying to turn BACK the hands of TIME_all the way BACK_to the greatest of the the "Confederacy" during the Civil War_smh. Politico: "Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell’s proclaimed celebration of Confederate History Month—without a mention of slavery— set off a full day of full-throated criticism Wednesday, including a slam from a major Virginia newspaper that endorsed the Republican during his campaign for the state’s highest office"…. As I said at the top: What a strange but also incredible TIME we're living in!
