Honestly, WHY?

Hillary Clinton  (WHY does her page go DIRECTLY to her donation page? Hmmm DANG!) won the vote in West Virginia. CNN - After big win, Clinton vows to push forward

I was not surprised and that is because this election represents a wide variety of views.

Some views I do question but that is what makes America unique for we all walk different paths.
 
A friend of mine did share with me through email that a friend of hers ran for a state election in West Virginia.

This is the letter her friend wrote who was in the election to a magistrate:

Subject: RE: Greetings from......

I lost my race, but put up the best fight I could.? I had 1800 to spend while the person that beat me had 50k to spend.

I ended up getting attacked by the police days before the election.? check out this cite- the ones talking about me are cops and co's.? http://www.huntingtonnews.net/cgi-bin/ubb-cgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=1&t=001760

It was much worse, but the cops took down their responses after I called them out and told them I am going to sue them for slander. They said things like I am H-town's biggest problem, that crime has increased 97% since I've been here.???? The whole time I was thinking they are promoting my book for me- kool.

Hang in there, many afflictions are that of the righteous.?? I hope things turn around for the fam.

Love ya,

Remember and DON'T FORGET the case of Megan Williams.

LOOK AT HER! SEE WHAT HAPPENED!

A BLACK WOMAN was TORTURED in West Virginia by 6 white people for an ENTIRE WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!

"The woman's captors forced her to eat rat droppings, choked her with a cable cord and stabbed her in the leg while calling her a racial slur, according to criminal complaints. They also poured hot water over her, made her drink from a toilet, and beat and sexually assaulted her during a span of about a week, the documents say." [Source:

Unfortunately the case was not seen as a hate crime? [West Virginia argued that because she had a previous relationship with one of the individuals that it is not a hate crime. But that was just one person. So what about bringing up the case under other charges such as battery, assault, etc. and whatever else they could be charged with]

What kind of justice is that!

How can someone be tortured and brutalized and not be charged as a hate crime but this is West Virginia law.

See the article here:

No Hate Crime Charges In Torture Case, But Charges with Stiffer Penalties Sought After Black Woman Was Allegedly Beaten and Raped by 6 Whites

Just think of the people who voted in West Virginia yesterday. A state that has a SMALL black population.

Forbes.com reported that West Virginia win is UNLIKELY to help Clinton

Is It Hillary's Turn to 'Denounce and Reject' a Problematic Pastor? | Election 2008 | AlterNet

The blogs are talking about it, but the mainstream news is not. Still, this is interesting. Blogs such as AdvanceAmericablog, commondreams.org, the National Journal’s Hotline, and wakeupfromyourslumber.com are talking about the scandal that has enveloped the former Pastor of the Clintons, but it appears only the Utica, NY newspaper is covering the story. The rest of the mainstream media is silent. Perhaps the story isn’t divisive enough for the mainstream media to take notice. Of course, it is as unfair to blame Hillary Clinton for her former pastor’s abuses just as it is unfair to blame Barack Obama for Rev. Wright. Still, that means the mainstream media is far more enamored of condemning Obama for his Rev. Wright’s tirades about 9/11 and race than it is concerned with the plight of a seven year old girl abused by Hillary Clinton’s former pastor. From the Utica Observer-Dispatch:

Thank you to @zik on twitter for informing me this article is misinterpreting A LOT. Please check the snopes urban legend page.

Shows you how we all can get duped and I appreciate those who clear up information that I may get wrong.

I still rely on mainstream media for no one knows everything.
