I'll not take instruction from Teddy Kennedy. A young woman likely drowned because of his negligence."
Ah But Teddy has shown true remorse by not taking a drink since then

Bill Bennetts comments are on par and offered in the same spirit as Johnathan Swift's
"Modest Proposal." His error is not racism...it is assuming that the general public recognises biting satire when they hear it. I think he needs to broaden his comments to include the thought that a black child is a most delicious, nourishing, and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled ...

Maybe 10 years ago he would have been, but not today. He's no racist. The real racists are those who support abortion to reduce the black population -- which was among the reasons that Planned Parenthood was founded.

The fact that Bennett is anti abortion is conveniently overlooked by the rabid media.

"June Cleaver" nailed it. If you took Bennett's quote and substituted 'white', you'd have the same thing. Or fill in 'Asian', etc. If you abort EVERY baby of some ethnic group, it's obvious crime will go down. Maybe some ethnic groups contribute more to crime than others...I don't know. It's a statistical thing as far as eliminating crime!
Yeah, I know I'm not saying this very well, but it's such a silly, no-think "accusation" (by liberals, of course), that's it's complete nonsense.
"I do know that its true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could, if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down.

"According to the Alan Guttmacher Institute, black women are more than 3 times as likely as white women to have an abortion" What are the statistics of blacks committing crime versus whites committing crime? If blacks represent 12% of the population, do they only commit 12% of all crime?

Bennett's toast. Next.Bennett will be fine so long as he stands up to the idiots attacking him, which I think he will.
What he said is true, and there's nothing to apologize for.

I hope Bennett's secure in his show; I enjoy it. Rest assured the "free speech" Left will do all it can to silence him.

I love it when the left becomes hysterical. Anyone who thinks Bill Bennett is a racist is a fool.

His point, it seems, is don't argue from the ends to the means. Caller will not be deterred from believing that this is some deeply held belief of his.

As much as many would like to ignore the Black situation re: crime, poverty, family dysfunctionality and self imposed economic and educational exile, what Bennet alludes to is fact. All the PC posturing and hurling of the 'Racism' epithet will not change it.Only one thing will change it: Facing it head on and working to change a culture which adores criminality.
A small example of adoring criminality: I had no idea why young men think it's cool to wear pants that are so oversized they fall off. To me it's clownish. I recently learned the reason it's so popular is they're emulating prisoners, who are not allowed to wear belts.

The politically correct left have ruined life in America. We can't speak the truth anymore without some sort of outrage. Sterilize those on the dole. That is the solution for poverty. They would be forced to get jobs because they won't be cranking out more babies who will end up in the same place 20+ years from now or in jail. Force them to be accountable or pay for their own. Black, white, green or purple. All the same. Where is the "racism" in that?
The conservative right needs to shout loudly how they are better than the loony left for all especially those that don't understand -- the uneducated and most of the blacks. Libs are far more racist than conservatives yet are much louder at calling anything racist. We need to fight back when the truth is told and get the word "racism" out of the MSM.

Wasn't it Margaret Sanger who recommended placing abortion clinics in the cities near black neighborhoods to make ti easy for the black race to abort itself to death? wasn't that part of her stated goal?
don't pro-choice abortionists worship Sanger?

"The fact of differential and blatantly unfair responses by the MSM and the Left do not invalidate the correctness of Bennett's remarks. The Lott matter, where the rational Right ran away and hid from the hypocrites was a disgrace IMO and only reinforced the effectiveness of the Left's hypocrisy and race baiting."
Then call them what they are and do not try and join in their perverted thinking. The MSM is the voice of the Left, and have a looooong record of distortion, there should be NO surprise, this is who they are.

Freudian slip that illustrates the problem with GOP.
