The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights voted Friday to wait until after next month's election to discuss a report critical of the Bush administration's civil rights record. Republican members had objected to the report's timing. The report remains posted on the commission's Web site, however, despite objections from GOP commissioners who sought to get it removed.

``I think it's an unfair report, and I think it's a politically biased report, and I think its release at this time is politically motivated,'' Commissioner Jennifer C. Braceras said after the commission voted to postpone discussion of the report until Nov. 12.

Another Republican commissioner, Abigail Thernstrom, said she was ``concerned about issuing a report that looked as if it was driven by an impending election.''

Commission Chairwoman Mary Frances Berry said later that she didn't mind waiting to discuss the report ``since they felt so strongly.'' She disputed the contention that the timing had anything to do with the election.

one of the things the report says is: " Bush ``has neither exhibited leadership on pressing civil rights issues, nor taken actions that matched his words'' on the subject."



at least it's on the internet - until it disappears

3. funny how they dont want

anything critical to be shown.

They will stop at nothing to stay in power.
