Nets Don't Disclose Bill Clinton Confronted African-American

If a supremely prominent Republican who was John McCain's chief surrogate had gotten into an angry confrontation at a campaign event, do you think the broadcast networks would have promptly let us know his interlocutor was African-American?

I do. But none of the broadcast network's morning news shows, at least during this morning's crucial first half-hour, disclosed the African-American identity of the man with whom Bill Clinton got into just such an argument yesterday in Ohio.

Not a word of any incident whatsoever at GMA or the Early Show, at least during the first half-hour. Today did mention that Clinton "showed his temper . . . after an Obama supporter tried to disrupt his speech in Canton," but nothing about the man's identity.

The incident with the Pro-lifer was another incident.

You wouldn't believe all the negative comments about Clinton attached to the YouTube clip of his rant toward the pro-life student. That clip of him is scary-crazy. His "low-life" is very much on display, and very much noted in the comments that follow.

It's getting harder by the day for him to keep the true backwater gutterness of him secreted.

true backwater gutterness

Cue "Dueling Banjos."

I actually think of that song...or The Beverly Hillbillies song...anymore when I see Bill or his little missus.

The MSM never reports black-on-black crime.

Thanks.

Obama is evidence the cry of “racism” triumphs all.

Thanks for your interest, CG-R: welcome to the list!

[governsleastgovernsbest]

LOL! Line ‘o the day.

Mark, hearty congratulations - now that Rush has found you, Fox News can’t be far behind!!

The MSM controls information, selects for and against candidates and issues and does it with little honesty and a lot of biases. It’s a problem that needs to be dealt with.

Thanks, Inspectorette! Any time Laurie Dhue wants to interview me ;-)

I knew some white boys like him when I lived in The South.They talked a lot of liberal noise about race and how”Martin Luther King was a great man”but after a couple of drinks would be telling darky jokes.
Bill seems like one of those twisted kids.As long as”his Negroes”stay on the Dem plantation and do what massa says,its all good.But never challenge the Big Boss Man.
White is Right,you see?

I live in Ithaca.

I'm sorry to hear that.
Please accept my deepest condolences.

[TigersEye]

Ithaca? Isn’t that a block away from hell?

It's in the basement.

If an Impeached ex President strikes you in an argument. What rules would apply to retaliation. A person has a right to defend themselves in most cases.

Well, other than the winter weather and the preponderance of liberals, it’s a great place ;-)
