Democratic strategist Cornell Belcher says there is a media "double-standard" over Herman Cain saying blacks have been "brainwashed." Belcher calls Mr. Cain a bigot and a racist and says this incident is a "teachable moment."
CORNELL BELCHER, DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST: First of all, do you think you're going to invite me on the show and then I'm not going to talk about the ridiculousness of that statement? Two things. One is a great way to sort of get people on your side and win voters is to attack their intelligence.
So great job there. Really sensible, Herman Cain.
The second part here is, it's really a teachable moment. You know, if I came on your show, Anderson, and I said, all Jewish people are brainwashed, I probably wouldn't be invited back to CNN and I assure you the condemnation would be swift and it'd be powerful and be strong.
What Herman Cain said was a racist, bigoted statement and it should treated like a racist and bigoted person who makes those racist and bigoted statements.
COOPER: Ari, what about that? I mean saying black voters have been brainwashed, how does that language play outside his supporters?...

Hey, Cornell, black people can’t be racist. Don’t you know? You racist.
Interesting that in the entire country, there are no black Democratic candidates, nor white, who will run against Obama. A real headscratcher.
Is it a coincidence that the MSM found a black political commentator?
I wonder.
Does he actually think that Cain was knocking African Americans? What has Mr. Belcher done in his life, other than try to manipulate his fellow blacks?
Who the heck is Cornhole Felcher?
OK, not “brainwashed”, then; just “communi-organized”. That’s even worse. It’s even less of an excuse.
Haha, nobody knows; that's why the link on Drudge is listed as "Dem strategist calls Herman Cain 'bigoted,' 'racist'..." (emphasis mine.)
WTF is a CORNELL BELCHER??????
What does Mr. Cornell Belcher have to say about Obama saying his granmother was just a typical white woman?
Thinking of when Moses went back to free the Israelites. They wanted nothing to do with him, at first. God changed their mind. What a thought, at any given moment we might see God bring Cain to confront Zero and call down plagues. Herman Cain said he felt God saved him from Stage 4 cancer for a purpose. I do not doubt the possibility.
Interesting you would say that as my husband and I had this conversation the other night. I was saying my only concern about Cain was his history of cancer, but as I reflected on it, I thought about the excellent history show Michael Medved has on the evidence of Divine intervention in American history. There are so many instances where seeming miracles occurred for America to prevail. I think this is another one of those instances and agree with Mr. Cain that he was cured for a purpose.
drooling idiot.
Deep down, they know what it does to them.
