Haley Barbour and the Council of Conservative Citizens
Posted 11:22 am | Printer Friendly | Spotlight
The other day I recited a handful of recent examples of Republican lawmakers offering disturbing and offensive remarks about racial and religious minorities. Today I found another example that may be even worse than the others.
Haley Barbour, the former national chairman of the Republican National Committee, is the Republican nominee for governor of Mississippi, which holds its election in just three weeks.

Far worse, he’s also been hanging out with the Council of Conservative Citizens.
Daily Kos has a picture of Barbour hanging out with CCC members at the Black Hawk Barbecue and Political Rally in July, which the CCC helped co-sponsor.
What’s the big deal? Well, the Council of Conservative Citizens is a transparently racist organization that grew out of the “White Citizens Councils” of the old, strictly segregated, South.

I *PRAY* that Barbour is the nominee!
