More From Nathan Bedford Forrest

I am not here to pass civilities or compliments with you, but on other business. i have stood your meanness as long as i intend to. you have played the part of a damned scoundrel, and are a coward, and if you were any part of a man i would slap your jaws and force you to resent it. you may as well not issue any more orders to me, for i will not obey them... and as i say to you that if you ever again try to interfere with me or cross my path it will be at the peril of your life.

I can no more disown (jeremiah wright) than i can disown the black community. i can no more disown him than i can my white grandmother - a woman who helped raise me, a woman who sacrificed again and again for me, a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world, but a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe.
