Sure, there are tons of al-Mansours but there is more than one "Dr. Khalin 
Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour from Texas"?  I don't think so.  Besides, the guy, 
*the* Dr. Khalin al-Mansour isn't denying the association.  In fact, the 
answer he gives might as well be a resounding YES!  He said he wouldn't make 
any comment because "it would be distorted. I was determined I was never 
going to be in that situation.  Bloggers are saying this is the new Rev. 
Wright - in drag! - and he is a nationalist, racist, and worse than Rev. 
Wright. So any statement that I made would only further this activity which 
is not in the interest of Barack."

And you think that because Sutton is old, he'd forget who he talked to and 
why?

And Percy Sutton?  I seriously doubt he has memory problems.  The man's a 
legend in the black community.  His work with Malcolm X is out there to be 
read by one and all.  His association, legal work, for Dr. Khalin al-Mansour 
is of record.  They're both from Texas.  They're both arse deep with the 
Black Panthers.

It is on record the number of speeches, etc. Dr. Khalin al-Mansour gave at 
Columbia when Teflon was there.  It is on record about Teflon's idiolizing 
Malcolm X, so I seriously doubt he would have missed a chance to be front 
row and center when Dr. Khalin al-Mansour was there "speaking."

And, no, Teflon isn't going to set to rest anything.  He isn't going to 
release a thesis that was probably never done, nor his college records, nor 
anything else that is in question.

Lynda, definately not voting for the non-revolution!  3rd Party here I come!
