I am black and even I don’t get my news from B.E.T. it is only good for watching old sitcoms and Caribbean music videos.

“Why include the token line about being the first African-American president? Relevance? Anyone?”

Obviously the line was included to imply that Cheney is criticizing Obamachev because he is a racist.

Playing the race card are we?? So soon??

That's when you know the Cheneys are really scoring.

Congressional Republicans, are you watching? Hmmm??

[proud American in Canada]

the family’s air assault on Obama that began shortly after he became the nation’s first African-American president.

Shortly after? Maybe I missed something but I thought this started recently, after BO went public with material. ?

It's now the month of May--they're making it sound like Cheney has been relentless since January.

Cheney is the lone voice in the wilderness until Sarah cranks up for the primaries in late 2010

[Sister_T]

I saw that too. Only injected in there to make the Cheneys’ “attack” on 0bama look racially motivated.

[Concho]

He is either African or he is American,,,apparently he is neither, his genetics are Arab, even though he was born in Kenya.

Amazing. Liberals are offended that the (currently) unpopular former Veep’s family dares to criticize Ogabe. I’m surprised they did not mention that Liz is a lesbian.

[HamiltonJay]

Agreed on that.

Why include the token line about being the first African-American president? Relevance? Anyone?

They want to make sure that we understand she is criticizing Obama because she is a racist.

[SP Vulcan Officer]

I believe the president has now decided NOT to release the photos. Good work Cheneys!

[Nat Turner]

See what I mean folks LOL...BET = Booty-shaking Entertainment Trash

Thanks Suga :)

"...Why include the token line about being the first African-American president? Relevance? Anyone..?"

Lest we forget...

[Bernard Marx]

EVEN black people dont take BET seriously LOL

Hmmmm, did you read the comments at the link? Food for thought.

Sooner or later, black Americans are going to have to disown Oba Mao. He is NOT a descendant of slaves. More than likely, his Daddy was a descendant of slave traders who were mainly forced to give up that sorry trade by British warships patrolling the coast of Kenya and Somalia a quarter century or so after our Civil War.

Real descendants of American slaves who have done real research into their family tree like Alex Haley of Roots fame have discovered that slaves originated overwhelmingly from west central Africa. The slave traders overwhelmingly originated from northeast Africa, notably Kenya, Somalia and Sudan, the only place where it is still practiced today.

So Zero's ancestors have more responsibility for slavery in America than your average white guy's ancestors.

“I don’t recall any outrage over the constant assault on the Bush Administration”.

...it’s a “black” thang. It’s BET.

[roses of sharon]

That would be Mary Cheney, not Liz.

[presently no screen name]

Why is Cheney the lone voice out there on this stuff?

Exactly. Where's Jeb and Mitt - the 'forget Reagan' twosome. Where's Newt? Where's Hunter - he wants exposure, now's his time. Seems they only want to speak up when there's something in it for them.

Rules only apply when a Left Wing Communist opinion is being said...opposition will be shouted down, ridiculed and heckled, and unde ZerO, potentially jailed.
