How come she's not down there running her mouth in defense of this guy?

Hillary is far to slick, (not smart) to say anything about this case. She will either piss off the homeless coalition or the blacks who could defend this women, which is hard to believe in the first place anybody could defend her actions, but someone will.

After all, it was only a homeless white man that was left to slowly die, no big deal, right?

I believe the emphasis here should be on the phrase ”white man.”after all he is not a minority so therefore does not have the same rights.

Hillary will speak up when the shock of the story has disipated. She'll blame President Bush for this man's death because he's homeless (and in Texas).

Why is it fit to rag on blacks here? I mean, sure, some numbskull will defend her and it could well come from the ranks of the usual suspects. But I refuse to think of the blacks I know (really, nobody special) would defend someone like this.

You also have to remember, we're not talking about the Taliban here. Some young girl (I saw the clip earlier on this thread), clearly not from a wasp background, sucked it up, went against what was easy and did the right thing. Like she said, she won't be able to go back to her normal life (good thing?) after this. None-the-less, this young woman had guts. If blacks were some kind of closed race, this guy would not have been news as they wouldn't have found the perp - 'cause everybody would have clammed up.

I'm not some apologist for bad behavior by blacks, but her "white guy" remark could well be just how you refer to white guys there. I know it's racist, like saying "my Jewish friend", but it happens in homogenious populations. My grandfather who passed away in the 70s when I was a kid was one of the most saintly guys you ever wanted to meet. I remember him talking to this neighbor and said "These "N"s just moved in down the block". This is in Seattle - this ain't Chicago and racism is rare, but he said it. Was still a wonderful man. It's just how whites referred to blacks when it was 99.9% white.

Bottom line here is that her white guy comment is a total red herring and detracts from viewing her in the proper context of the pure monster than she is.

I remember when OJ did his slow drive in his Bronco. Nearly all the black people that I heard talking about it the next day said he was totally guilty. Only when race baiting became central to the case did people line up race frist, brains second.

Lesson: Don't lower to Jesse and Al's standards and engage in race baiting.
