Tavis Smiley is such a tool
You should have seen the episode where he filled in for Larry King last month.
He had on Ann Coulter and some telegenic liberal sistah.
She rattled off this bogus figure about Obama having lowered taxes 125 times. Then projected smiling confidence about how great he was and all the wonderful things he was doing for us.
Ann countered, but frankly Ann is not that effective a debater in my opinion.
She should not have gotten bogged down in detail but simply asked the audience if they felt their situation had improved over the last year-and-a-half.
That’s the ticket, don’t play your opponent’s game. Ann likes too much to be combative.
I just wonder how long the likes of ol’ Tavis think they can fool people into thinking Obama’s the best thing since sliced bread (and that he actually gives a damn about the bruthas).
