[Vision2020] Racist Doonsbury (was words and actions (Testosterone Reality Check))

Sat Jan 31 19:26:46 PST 2009

My flyer contains only comments from No Weatherman subject lines that  
I consider to be racist and Crabtree contends are not racist. If you  
think I'm on the wrong side of this debate come out and make your case  
on Tuesday. I expect that Crabtree will need some help.
