Black Chamber CEO Tells O'Reilly Barbara Boxer "Loves Black People in Their Place"

Here is video from tonight of Black Chamber of Commerce CEO Harry Alford talking with Bill O'Reilly on The O'Reilly Factor about his slapdown of Sen. Barbara Boxer last week for her "condescending" and "racial remarks" that were offensive to him. Alford is quickly becoming a real hero for conservatives who are glad to hear someone take the Democrats to task for their shameless use of race.

O'Reilly is totally wrong about Boxer. She deliberately sought to use race against an African-American - Harry Alford, as if the quoting of other Black organizations discounts his testimony and evidence. Alford said he believes that Boxer loves "black people in their place." . . . . (Watch Video)

I watched the interview on O’Reilly tonight. At first, I didn’t understand his objection, either, since he himself is representing the National Black Chamber of Congress. But, then he explained further.

If you watch the video, you’ll hear him say that he was speaking out against Cap & Trade, and then Boxer used quotes that had nothing to do with Cap & Trade. She used those quotes only because they were made by other African Americans, who were not representing business like the NBCC does. She used those quotes only because other black men had made them, and she put a spin on them.

If you listen, when O’Reilly presses him, Alford says:

“Well, first of all, the NAACP had a resolution saying they’re for a better environment... It did not address Cap and Trade. It did not address the Waxman-Markey bill. And her, with her usual embellishments, was trying to make this like it was something supporting the Waxman-Markey bill. It was not.”

He makes a good point. Alford is a businessman in favor of capitalism, and he was speaking against the bill from that point of view. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the NBCC is a private (nonprofit) organization that provides information to help black entrepreneurs start businesses. If so, more power to them. As long as no government funds are involved, I’m all for it.

Plus, even if he himself is a Dem, he has made some interesting observations about at least this one Dem, and he’s willing to fight this bill... So, he has my support, unless he backs off and joins the socialist crowd. Let’s hope he doesn’t.
