Hi, User:Regroce took my references and totally erased them then took one of them as his own and said he retrieved it on the 26th. No need to say he lied. Anyways, I replaced one of my references, the audio. It is reliable, comes from a database of a radio show mp3's. Mdandrea (talk) 05:53, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

I have found the entire of Clyburn quote in the mp3 that I referenced. I referenced it from points 01:15:12 to 01:15:53. I played it in VLC media player and my mp3 player to be certain that the time points were correct. User:Regroce says in his edit summary of Revision 273788574 that he "Again removed irrelevant reference. Audio reference to radio show does not include the quote; thus irrelevant. Refernce to print journal is." - I am not sure if he has a problem with his audio player or his internet connection. I did play the audio in four different audio players and the only one that was off by a little bit was Real Player. The timing I put has to be correct, if not please listen for a few seconds and you will hear the quote. Mdandrea (talk) 04:56, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

"Hope Derrick, spokeswoman for the congressman, clarified that Clyburn's objections were not based on assumptions that the governors' objections were racially motivated, but were to remind the governors that their threats of rejecting stimulus funding would hurt the black residents of their states." This does not need it's own paragraph. It is on the same topic of the quote. To make a second paragraph is baffling.

Mdandrea (talk) 01:50, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

In reply to above comments from Mdandrea, I objected to the audio source provided for many reasons, including: - the quote for which it was cited already had other reference(s), - the other references were websites of print journals, thus easier to access, - the quote was approximately 75 minutes into the audio piece, - the audio reference was from an opinioned source, and even interrupted the particular quote in question with criticism (ie, verbal groans and sighs), and - coming from an opinioned source negates any NPOV intent and principals

I did at first mistake the time in which that quote was to appear in the audio link, which is why I also made comment that it was not present (...gave up after listening for 10 minutes straight). However, after a correct time was listed, I did listen at that particular time to hear the quote. That's when I better realized the opinioned format of that quote's inclusion in the broadcast.

In defense, please note: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources

Use of 2nd paragraph, as well as argument on that subject, is quite irrelevant, and remains unpursued to date. To respond to this topic introduced by another, however, the quotation in that portion is a new subtopic (ie, spokesperson response) under the topic at hand; therefore, new paragraph. While this isn't an AP journal, using AP guides isn't out of the question. Regroce (talk) 20:18, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

The information on the right-hand side says that he is the incumbent majority whip but succeeded by Kevin McCarthy?
I think it's incorrect to show that he has a successor? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.90.187.66 (talk) 14:47, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Family
Hi.. You may not know of me but we are family. Earline was my grandmother. Her daughters Earline and Shirley are my aunts. My mother's name was Mary Pratt. Mamma and Pappa were my great grand parents. Earline Smith told me that we are related. Just wondering if this is true. 2603:7081:5D40:3282:F4FB:BD2:902F:339C (talk) 17:19, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
