Zealous Donkey 0 Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 I'll admit, I jumped the gun on that Sherrod thing.Maybe not, she is having a lot of trouble keeping her mouth shut, and throwing around a lot of false accusations herself. She seems like a text book racist/race baiter to me. Breitbart has had a backlash, and I think she is getting ready to get one of her own. But I hear Willie Nelson is on her side, so she has that going for her. We'll see, but I don't think this is over. Link to post Share on other sites

Having your Father shot and killed by a White Man who isn't charged when you're 17 probably shapes your views a little and then having a weasel like Breitbart twist and lie about the contents of your speech and then come on TV and be full of shit might piss you off a little.I know when I read this quote from Tea Party Express leader Mark Williams it sure makes me think that he's both a moron and a racist.http://www.miamiherald.com/2010/07/23/1744...k-williams.htmlWilliams wrote on his blog a fictional letter from what he called "colored people" to Abraham Lincoln. " ' We Coloreds have taken a vote and decided that we don't cotton to that whole emancipation thing. Freedom means having to work for real, think for ourselves, and take consequences along with the rewards. That is just far too much to ask of us Colored People and we demand that it stop!" he wrote.

FCP Bob 1,312 Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Your bias is showing.The reason that his blog post makes me think that he's both a moron and a racist is that somebody who posts something like that sure looks like a racist and somebody with his profile who posts that and doesn't realize how others are going to see it is a moron.Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are professional shit disturbers who do whatever they can to keep themselves in the limelight. I view them the same way I view Ann Coulter but using different methods. Link to post Share on other sites

Are you saying she has a right to be racist? Racists views are shaped for a variety of reasons all of them reasonable in the mind of the racist. I don't automatically think the white man who killed her father was necessarily guilty of anything. I admit I have read nothing about the case but I don't accept her at her word that her father was wrongfully killed. Maybe he was maybe he wasn't. She is either stupid or a racist. Saying that Breitbart wants to put blacks back into slavery. If she wants to call Breitbart racist then she needs to have some proof of his racism. And her running around saying the ridiculous things that she is saying is helping make a case for her own racism. I don't disagree with you at all about Williams, but he and the Tea Party are going their separate ways, he took a lot of heat from those in the Tea Party for that moronic post. Jesse Jackson is an out and out racist and antisemetic. I would agree with you on Sharpton and Coulter. They try to stir up emotion. I don't consider them racist. They are a bit more open and honest about their views and what they are trying to do. Link to post Share on other sites

You're saying that she's being a racist for seeing racism in Breitbart and I don't agree with you on that. I also don't agree with her statements that Breitbart wants Blacks to go back to being Slaves, that's just stupid on her part.I totally forgot about Jesse Jackson's past anti-semitism, I just usually ignore anything he does or says.

Can't we all just get along?Breitbart is a little too emotional and hot headed, but not racist. His emotions will end up getting him in something he can't get out of. In the same way I worry about Chris Christie, he seems to be taking the curves awful fast and he if he slips up one time, the media will never let up on him. Link to post Share on other sites
85suited 0 Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Breitbart is a weasel I'm sorry Henry.Watch the entire video that wasn't edited by him and see if you agree with your previous statements. Watch his interview on CNN, his nose is growing from his lies and his eyes are brown from being full of shit.http://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/video/po...t.intv.cnn.htmlConservative David Frum's take on this whole situation.http://theweek.com/bullpen/column/205190/s...servative-media I love how the media jumps on Breitbart for posting a portion of the video but does not blame the administration for firing her after watching only a portion of the video.
