I blogged about a piece CNN wrote yesterday talking about “the black candidate” and “the woman candidate”, and the furor it brought down on them from their readers. Well today Whoopi Goldberg wasn’t too happy with CNN, and expressed it on The View. Raw Story has the video and details about Whoopi and CNN – […]
According to former Reagan official Paul Craig Roberts, that is exactly where this country is at now.

The information was released concurrent to an FOIA act and George Washington University has them online.
