BK>> wing, I thought that was one stupid thing to say. Still, it's
BK>> hard to miss the fact that got a whole lot more coverage and
BK>> outrage than any conservative making a racial comment would get
BK>> on talk radio. When a white conservative says something equally
BK>> stupid the right wing media falls all over themselves to explain
BK>> that he really isn't racist, and that it's being overblown.
BK>> Witness Bennett's stupidity on black abortion and the crime rate.
FS> Nonsense. If a well-known white made such a stupid
FS> statement it would be on the front page of the New York
FS> Times and you *know* it!
Which was *NOT* talk radio last I looked.
BK>> Still, it was stupid.
FS> Correct!
BK>> The part I did not hear about is where he said a lot more about
BK>> how the black community had to take responsibility for improving
BK>> itself. When Cosby said that he got headlines in the right wing
BK>> media. When Nagin said it, it got zero coverage that I have seen
BK>> yet.
FS> He probably didn't say that ...
I posted what he said.
