In some cases, they hire him as a consultant Ahh..., the power of the THREAT of racism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCorinthian Posted June 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 Not to disagree but I did not see where Mr. Dobson (whoever that is.) was taking money NOT to boycott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.. Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 Dude, you do not know Dobson? HOW is that possible??????? He is one of the leaders of the GOP! Believe me, he is even more corrupt than Sharpton or (God help me: Jesse). Just do a bit of due diligence. Seriously!!! Cheers, SD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCorinthian Posted June 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 Either way Sua, now where was it he was taking money NOT to boycott? (But for perspective, I could not pick Beckham out of a crowd either.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
