For the first time in a while I was able to listen to Rush far a bit today. He made some interesting comments that I will paraphrase. Several other countries and many different races of humans have fought TO KEEP slaves (of all colors) for thousands of years. Even Indian tribes slayed each other to keep their slaves.

The Untied States of America lost thousands upon thousands of (white) citizens in a war that ended up freeing slaves. White Americans have probably sacrificed more than any other group on earth to end slavery and though it's taken some time, as a country we have come a million miles. Yet we are the ones always taking the hits.

How soon Sharpton, Jackson and their ilk forget.

180,000 black soldiers fought in the Civil War (10% of the entire Union Army), and nearly 80,000 died in it. Died fighting while being hated and paid much less than the white guys they were fighting against. Whites didn't do all the work.
