I saw it and I am absolutely FURIOUS. This guy had the nerve to compare GW to Hitler, and then excuse Malcom X's stance on race! No wonder racism still exists- this guy's us vs. them attitude is so obvious. And he thinks he's going to CHANGE history by telling the truth about 'white' heroes??? PUH LEEZE. GRRRRRR! I am pissed.

I saw it! What a frightening man. Yikes. But Bill is wrong when he uses the "this will isolate black children from the mainstream" argument. Much of the mainstream is to be politically correct, and you can go far jumping aboard the gravy train known as Diversity Express. Witness Cornel West and the incident at Harvard. Sheesh ... it's not like Africa is full of heroes. Bill could have pointed out all the human rights atrocities currently going on in Zimbabwe and South Africa and the Sudan. Why aren't black "leaders" worked up into a lather over that???

My favorite part was when the councilman said the Civil War wasn't fought over slavery. He said is was the "industrial North versus the agriculture South". To me that means the Civil War was fought over states rights (tariffs). So does the councilman believe the Confederate Flag stands for States Rights or slavery? O'Reilly missed his chance for a great question.

I think the following story is about him..........

p class="storytext">BR... N.Y. — The new Brooklyn borough president says "diversity" is making him take down a portrait of "old white man" George Washington that's hung in the office for years. Brooklyn Beep Marty Markowitz said he will probably hang a portrait of a black person or a woman in his office in place of the country's first president, while moving the Father of Our Country elsewhere in Borough Hall. "I respect history . . . but there has to be a recognition that this is 2002," Markowitz said. "There's not one picture of a person of color, not one kid, not ...

It was an emotional exchange. Oreilly did not deal with the tense issue. Many of these people are claiming they are effected by George Washungton having slaves. This is the weakness of their argumnent; failing to deal in the presnet tense.

I emailed O'Reilly and basicaly told him he missed a golden opportunity. After all the racist BS that Barron was dishing out, O'Reilly should have finished him off with one question....."Where do you stand on the Ground Zero Firefighter's Statue issue?"

Well Ha- Ha I can show actual harm. I have realitives who have had property stolen from them by blacks, injured by a hit and run driver leaving one ralitive impaired for life. My sister was raped by a black man and I have been opressed in school by black social work teachers. However I don't believe that all Balck people whould have to pay for the deeds of some. Once I wanted my reperations from slavery, but I have seen the light and have decided to let Americans keep their hard earned money.

I'm convinced C-SPAN has a conspiracy to make ALL blacks who call in look like raving, foam-at-the-mouth lunatics too.

I'm convinced that the Blacks who call into C-SPAN are paid callers with calling points. Too many of them appear to be trying to read their comments. Also, they're not smart enough to be watching C-SPAN out of pure choice.

And that's why I don't watch CSPAN anymore. Too many callers were just dumb!

My favorite part was when the councilman said the Civil War wasn't fought over slavery. He said is was the "industrial (CAPITALSIT) North versus the agriculture South". To me that means the Civil War was fought over states rights (tariffs). So does the councilman believe the Confederate Flag stands for States Rights or slavery? O'Reilly missed his chance for a great question. You are right the Civil was not fought for slavery at first but for STATE RIGHTS which ALL states lost in 1865......

No Kidding! That guy was so outrageous I got his name and website and sent him an email!

Charles Barron (Not US Congress - NY State)
Here's the contact>

The answer to your last question is that there's no money in it.

[bimmer]

sad but sooo true. White Christian missionaries are also helping liberate the black slaves in the Sudan. Somehow that never comes up, does it?

[Right_in_Virginia]

I can relate!

[Budge]

People like this are the ones who are going to incite a race war in this country, and if they haven't looked, they're seriously outnumbered.

Exactly! These people do more harm to race relations than any KKKer ever did. Unfortunately, many blacks follow this cr@p!

[aomagrat]

I saw it. That guy was a raving racist who compared G. Washington and T. Jefferson to Hitler. He said the Declaration of Independence was written by white slave owners so it didn't apply to blacks. He also said that African blacks being involved in the slave trade was a myth. A total black supremist.

[Alissa]

Why does he give this guy a platform? Does O'Reilly think this is cutting edge?

My theory is O'Reilly is showing the "Red" territory what they're up against in the "blue" territory. I doubt this guy did anything to improve the image of the suppressed blacks in "middle" America!

[slimer]

I saw his name on the screen with a "D"

The "D" stands for "DUMB-ASS"
