I think it's a shame that the governor is about to become a lamb on the altar of 'political/racial agendas'. O'Reilly is pompous. I would not watch his show because it's difficult watching him manipulate guests and not let them get a word in edgewise. He's also a liar as Drudge attests to almost every Sunday.
Bothered by this? Yes. Does it hurt to know that this sort of business is still going on in America? Sure. However, I have to remind myself that the South and it's racial issues are not old and is still very fresh in a lot of people's minds. The north isn't innocent either but the race issues are different. Hey New York has Al Sharpton and Hillarybeast after all! It also fuels stereotypes of Sothrons most of whom I believe aren't racist.

When you think about some of the most controversial recent racial incidents-- Louima, Rodney King, The LA Riots, Crown Heights, Bensonhurst, Diallo, etc.- they have happened in the North.
I think the South has demons on this issue, but isn't it funny that JC Watts was elected in an overwhelmingly white district by white Republicans in Oklahoma, yet nearly all the other memebrs of the CBC are elected in districts with super black majorities. I think the North and other liberal areas, who feel so confident on these issues, need to look in the mirror and address their own race problems rather than constantly attack white Southerners.
Why is their not 1 black Democrat Senator? The truth of the matter is, that if a Black wants to get elected to state-wide office, he or she should be a Republican.
