-=> Quoting Bob Klahn to Frank Scheidt <=- 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! BK> Which was *NOT* talk radio last I looked. You're probably right ... however that's beside the point ... 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 ... BK> I posted what he said. So what's your point? That Bill Cosby has more respect in the national news-media than does Nagin? ... Diogenes dinally found ME!
