I would imagine that would be rather hard to do. Isn’t Alabama one of the largest, percentage wise, populated States in the nation?

Those Masons are an odd group. I would think if I were a black man? I would not want to be affiliated with them. Rumor has it they are KKK related. Sooooo…

Whatever happened the the right of free association?  I guess white Republicans don’t have that right, either, along with the right of free speech.

"One must regard his leftist opponent as a parent regards his recalcitrant child. Don’t give an inch in a debate with a leftist, and you’ll soon frustrate him to the point that he falls back to his default position. He’ll gainsay your every point. He’ll even resort to calling you names and accusing you of having suspect parentage.”

YA! And where are the women in that group?…

Someone, Call PETA! I bet they do some kind of sacrificial slaughter of some kind?

seems silly to me.

he has that right, that’s not what is been called into question.

aNON: When you come under attack for one of your associations, you no longer have the right of free association.  Duh.  It is being used against him, politically, because the Dems are lusting for power and are using anything they can find to demonize any Republican member of Congress.  If they really cared about the Masons, they would have taken action against them a long time ago.  This isn’t anything new; it’s just approaching election time.

When you’re running for a high elected office, I believe its fair game.  e.g. Been an actve member of a swinging club is perfectly ok, but if you’re running for an elected office I think it would be legitimate for your opponent to attack you on it.

aNON: Thanks for ignoring the part about the convenient timing.  This isn’t about any moral or ethical standards at all, unlike your example.  This is a hit job for political purposes, and it smells.  It’s typical Dem strategy: win in the courts what you can’t get at the ballot box.  This is a no-content smear.  No one is going after the Masons, because apparently blacks don’t want to join.  Duh.

..its poletics as usual as practiced here in the U.S. by both parties and around the world.  i.e. though out the bad dirt you have on your opponent when it will hurt him most.

“Everybody does it!” I guess that makes it OK, then?
If the Masons are such a racial problem, why now?  You still haven’t answered that one.

writing by the Masonic Lodge of Alabama:

Take a look at this piece of “enlightened” literature from the Grand Lodge of Alabama:

“Masonry in Alabama”

By Joseph Abram Jackson

1970

“ADMITTING NEGROES TO MASONRY.
The question of admitting Negroes to the fraternity has been brought up every few years, but doubtful had it ever been handled more firmly than in 1876. According to the Grand Lodge’s Proceedings, a resolution in 1876 set forth the Alabama Grand lodge’s position on the subject. A few Grand Lodge jurisdictions had been reported to have admitted Negroes into membership in sympathy with anti-slavery societies and also a few had been admitting the Revolutionary War by traveling Lodges belonging to the British Army due to feelings which existed at the time against American Patriots. Although the number was obviously small, the Grand Lodge of Alabama was greatly stirred and very vocal on the matter. The lengthy resolution in 1876 carries the segregation origin issue on which seems to be based the Masonry stand all the way back to “the original Father of Mankind, and his immediate descendents; or to Enoch and Noah; or to building of King Solomon’s Temple; or arising from the constitutions of Pythagoras; or- back to the Eleusinian Mysteries; or to those of Ceres, and the institution of the Bacchanalia; or what is most probable of all, the incorporation of the Roman Builders under Numa Pompilius—that theory carries us back to the Caucasian Race.” To most Masons, whatever all this means was surely for them to keep in line with the original and fundamental law of the Fraternity. It was therefore again resolved to not admit nor recognize Negroes as Masons. The issue has remained the same for 150 years among Alabama Masons.”

I now retract my this “seems silly to me” comment.  Its a legitimate issue to inform the electorate about.

Not all masonic lodges are racist.  The United Grand Lodge of America is fighting the old system for racial equality.  By the way… No goat sacrifices or KKK affiliations here.  The ones responsible for all of this mayhem are the “Blue Lodge” system.
...And we’re not out to rule the world through some secret government or “Illuminati” nonsense.  We are just people who give to charity and act as “caretakers” of certain events of historical signifigance.  We have women Masons too.  They are called co-masons.  As far as African-American Masons...We welcome them without reservation.  There is a lodge specifically for African Americans, but the Blue Lodge doesnt recognize them. 
What these Blue Lodge Masons are doing is completely abhorrent to everything that Masonry holds sacred.  If you’ll visit the URL:  http://the-modern-freemasonic-journal.blogspot.com/... You’ll learn a lot of the background into the Riley issue and the deeper issues that are behind this whole issue in Alabama.
