Gerald Rivers...AKA Jeraldo Rivera....AKA Racist extroardinaire.

[rottndog]

Race baiting: injecting race into a debate where it has no legitimate place, for the sole purpose of heightening and exploiting racial tension, in order to stifle the debate. Those who engage in it are by definition racist.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

Kinda sounds like Juan Mcloon...

[JRios1968]

Unfortunately, he claims to represent and speak for all Americans of Hispanic descent.

Geraldo does NOT speak for me!

[NRA2BFree]

This is further proof that Geraldo has lost his mind. There are NO anti-amnesty candidates. ALL presidential candidates support amnesty. Basically, illegals have won. If he weren’t so busy spewing his racist BS, he would have noticed!!

[Let's Roll]

No, Jerry, they’re “Americans”!

[Clemenza]

A half-Jewish/half-Puerto Rican upper middle class kid from Lawn Guyland claiming to speak for anyone with an "ez" at the end of their name.

Rich, coming from guy who started his career as Jerry Rivers.

[Texas Eagle]

That would be Tio Toms wouldn’t it?

"This is further proof that Geraldo has lost his mind."

You are assuming he had one in the first place.

[SAJ]

Quite right, and WELL said. A race/ethnicity pimp is never more or less than a race/ethnicity pimp. (I wish there were a more elegant way of saying that...)

[The_Republican]

So I guess that mean 33%-40% of Latinos are Uncle Toms. I got a Conservative co-worker who is Latino, but born and raised here, and hates gangsters and tell me about the north vs south battle between Mexican gangs......I intend to inform him that he is Uncle Tom! LOL!

“A half-Jewish/half-Puerto Rican upper middle class........”

Well, the whole class-identity/separation-for-benefit plan in America was started by the ‘Jerry Rivers’ half of that demographic mix. Nice that they are coming over to our side in greater numbers currently, now that the Frankenstein they created is threatening to impact them. But I remember.

[blackbart.223]

"I wish there were a more elegant way of saying that...)"

You just did exactly that. The truth is always elegant.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Do us Spaniards count as uncle toms too? Or is it only hispanics? I’m confused

[Mark]

Jerry, as a total idiot, you have no dog in this hunt.

“any Latino who votes for a Republican or a Democrat who opposes rational immigration reform is an Uncle Tom.”

Tell that to these people... Whorealdo!

“Any Latino who votes for a Republican or a Democrat who opposes rational immigration reform is an Uncle Tom.”

As a half-Mexican, I must correct y’all: The correct term is “Tio Taco.”

Although now they mostly call you “coconuts”: brown on the outside, white on the inside.

Me, I’m pinkish brown on the outside and mostly red on the inside, with some pink, some grayish-green bits, some purple, a dash of beige, and a little pinkish yellow.

Uncle Tom was a hero. And Jerry is an idiot.
