[White, Liberal]Radio Host Calls Rice an 'Aunt Jemima'
Fox News ^ | Friday, November 19, 2004 | Associated Press

MILWAUKEE — A radio talk show host drew criticism Thursday after calling Condoleezza Rice an "Aunt Jemima" and saying she isn't competent to be secretary of state.

John Sylvester, the program director and morning personality on WTDY-AM in Madison, said in a phone interview Thursday that he used the term on Wednesday's show to describe Rice and other blacks as having only a subservient role in the Bush administration.

Rice has served as President Bush's national security adviser and was named this week to replace the departing Colin Powell as secretary of state.

Sylvester, who is white, also referred to Powell as an "Uncle Tom" — a contemptuous term for a black whose behavior toward whites is regarded as fawning or servile.

He said Thursday night that he was referring to remarks by singer and civil rights activist Harry Belafonte that the price of admittance for blacks to the Bush White House was subservience.

As for Rice, "they're using her for an illusion of inclusion," he said, adding that he feels her history as national security adviser showed a lack of competence.

I notice the story is datelined Milwaukee. I wonder if this liberal racist will get anywhere near the same punishment that Mark Belling of WISN got for calling illegal aliens wetbacks. Somehow, I doubt it.

Wow. I can't wait to see this on cBS, ABC, NBC and the Communist News Network (CNN). I'm sure it will be a lead story.

Sylvester is so white and lame, his idea of "taco" is a piece of baloney wrapped in Wonder Bread.

The typical marxist black whines about about Condi Rice and Colin Powell being subservient to the President when that's their job. The definition of subservience is to be of service or to be usefull as a subordinate. I suppose if these stupid communist blacks like harry belafonte had their jobs, they would expect to be president.

Subservience? How about adherence? Adherence to the Constitution! Condoleeza Rice is a reputedly a strong supporter of the second amendment.

This radio host is a disgrace to all white people everywhere. Evidently he ran out of political criticisms. He ran out of ideas to discuss. He ran out of strategies to change. What was left?

One can only hope that soon he will also run out of employment.

What I find amusing is that Aunt Jemima was a beloved icon of middle America for a century. The brand was highly successful, and never experienced any derogatory connotation except by militant blacks and the same PC NYT crowd that missed the entire point of the 2004 Election.

A n(word) is a person who is racist. It is NOT a person of any particular race. Example, John Sylvester is a N(word).

Meanwhile, Condi Rice accomplished more to alter the history of the world, for the better, during the time it took John Sylvester to make his racist comments, then John Sylvester will accomplish in his entire life.

How else is this little putz going to get his name in the national news -- the easiest way is to do something vile against the right.

Al Franken was unheard of, until he wrote some trash aimed at Rush.

SOP: Want some attention, attack the right and all the leftie 'news' outlets will trumpet your trash.
