What bugs me is how Sharpton wants Mukasey to meet with the CBC and "civil rights leaders" can you say Jesse Jackson to discuss the matter...
So, by segmenting this into a Black vs. White vs. <insert nationality here> issue as Sharpton is positioning for, how does a "national" crime statistic get solved? No, let's get the CBC involved, not "the Congress", the representative body of all Americans to work on this problem. No, let's focus on the "black" aspect of the issue, not the whole hate crime issue...
