Just in case you think Bush was behind use of the "g" word in Darfur

It's a black thang:

Almost two years ago when the U.S. Congress declared the atrocities Genocide, I was so elated and proud, believing that we were going to do something to save lives. I was so sure that this time around it was going to be different, assuming we learned from Rwanda. I must confess I never thought I was going to succeed even getting the resolution passed in the House, let alone see our government declare Genocide.


That's from "Africa: Remarks of Congressman Donald M. Payne - 36th Congressional Black Caucus Annual Legislative Conference" as reported by AllAfrica.com
