Whoopi Goldberg Asks John McCain 'Do You Want Me to Be a Slave?'
news busters ^ | September 12, 2008 | Justin McCarthy

Posted on 09/12/2008 9:18:13 AM PDT by jaydubya2

Developing: On September 12's "View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg inquired of Senator John McCain, "do you want me to be a slave?"

The question was spurned by the Senator's stance on Roe v. Wade. When McCain answered he supports judges who support the original intent of the Constitution, Whoopi drew a slavery comparison.

"Whoopi Goldberg Asks John McCain 'Do You Want Me to Be a Slave?' " . Answer: " Only if you want to Whoopi!" Welcome to the world of free choice. In the world of federal welfare and freebies the government becomes your task master.

I thought the very same thing.

In her world, forcing a mother to care for her child is slavery, but using the government to force other people (aka taxpayers)do it is OK.

Why exactly is McCain going on these shows? I mean, does he really think this gets him votes!

I've been asking myself that question too, both about him and about Gov Palin's appearance on ABC. Why? The DNC refused to hold any primary debates on the Fox News Network, and that certainly wasn't a scandal. The Obamessiah refused to appear on any Fox News shows for well over a year, again no scandal. What is it about our candidates (and, by extension, our party) that makes them such good sacrificial lambs that they actually volunteer to throw themselves under the wheels of the MSM bus? IMO, they have more to lose by going on these shows than they do by letting the MSM pout and whine about their unwillingness to submit to inquisitions.

Sadly, that was me putting words in Johnny Mac’s mouth. I wish he had said it.

I believe John McCain knows more about “being a slave” than Whoopi and a thousand of her coke snorting Hollywood cohorts could ever hope to know. Shes a legend in her own mind.

But the other three, Joy, Barbara and Whoopi, their faces were all twisted up and the hate in their eyes. Wow! Like three vampires looking a cross.

That is not an exageration. Their demeanor and body posture spoke volumes. They could barely stand to sit next to the man and didn't try to hide it. The looks on their faces really made them look ugly.

I could only stand to watch half the interview, bu the last thing I remember hearing as I switched channels was Whoopie asking a question concerning Rastafarians. (Huh?)

I vote that this whole thread be removed. There are too many offensive and racist comments on it. It’ll be up on huffington postal within the hour.

If she really wants to see an interesting answer, ask democratic senator Byrd that question.

If I understand Whoopi correctly, she's saying that the repeal of Roe v Wade would make you a slave. I'd like to tie this to Camille Paglia's recent article discussed here.

Here's part of my post on that thread: "Paglia's view harkens back to a type of heroic romanticism, similar to Ayn Rand. Paglia sees Natural and natural laws as a totalitarian monster, where one role of human beings is to push back and say 'hell no'. Of course, this battle is doomed in the end, as the Grim Reaper always gets his prize in the end. But life is a battle against this nature. Paglia has celebrated man's contribution in this battle, saying that if women ran everything, we'd still be sitting in grass huts. She sees technology, culture, religion all in war against nature. Culture, modern society is an artificial creation of humanity against demon nature. She's celebrated the body builders, who've literally re-made (sculpted) their bodies. For Paglia, it logically follows, that this self-determination against nature's fascism includes abortion. Saying hell no to nature controlling your body, your life, your future. I agree with her on humanity's battle against nature. On how environmentalism is sentimental nonsense. Live in balance with Nature? Okay, prepare to get greased by Mother Nature. I think with the population bust, and the huge demand for adoptive babies, abortion is insane. Women, who consenually have sex, are saying yes to conception, yes to gestation and yes to birth."

Whoopi's saying that without legalized abortion, she'll be a slave. In a sense, she's correct. But she's got the wrong tyrant named. The tyrant is Mother Nature and she's one mean b*tch. See what she's going to be doing to Galveston and Houston. Whoopi and many (most?) feminists hate what nature has made them. Sarah obviously celebrates what nature has made her. She enjoys it. She loves being a woman. The gift of the ability to bear child is a blessing from God. Sarah's so happy, the mean, bitter, angry feminists Can. Not. Stand. Her.

I may incorrect, but did’nt she have a major problem during her younger years and what she did to get money to buy drugs?

Now she will proceed to lecture the rest of the joe six pack world.

Husbands and boyfriends. Whenever Whoopi pulls this race stuff I also shake my head and think..”So Whoopi when was the last time you actually let a black man touch you?”
