1. I'm sure she has at least one black "friend" so LI can't possibly be racist

2. I read the transcript

And that was pathetic. Anyone who watched her BS "walkback" or read it online is now dumber after having done so.

What a racist, dishonest imbecile she is.

[erronis]

16. Can you post a link to the transcript? I HATE watching HATE videos, especially simpering liars.

Thanks!

[awesomerwb1]

17. I can't remember where I read it

but do a google search and you'll get articles with both video and transcript.

31. Ingraham clarifies remarks on immigration:

Tonight, Ingraham attempted to clarify some of her remarks.

“I want to start by addressing my commentary at the top of last night’s show,” she said. “A message to those who are distorting my views, including all white nationalists and especially one racist freak whose name I will not even mention. You do not have my support, you don’t represent my views and you are antithetical to the beliefs I hold dear.”

Ingraham continued: “The purpose of last night’s angle was to point out that the rule of law – meaning secure borders – is something that used to bind our country together. And despite what some may be contending – I made explicitly clear that my commentary had nothing to do with race or ethnicity, but rather a shared goal of keeping America safe, and her citizens safe and prosperous.”

Ingraham said that she wanted to make it clear that “my concern will continue to remain with the families who have suffered the tragic results of illegal immigration, the children put in dangerous and unfair situations at the border, and all those border agents around the country who work to keep our country safe.”

3. "don't believe what you see or hear"

even if it was me, yesterday, on my show.

[kimbutgar]

4. I think she went too far and exposed herself and fox as a racist entity.

[Major Nikon]

6. Fox does so on a daily basis, so nothing really new

The only reason LI is even bothering to walk this back is because she knows she will lose even more advertisers and will be further in jeopardy of being booted off the network as a result (because they dam sure won't do so out of ethical concerns).

The problem LI has is the only reason she gets attention at all is because she appeals to the racist mouthbreathers. So she must constantly walk the line between going too far and not going far enough.

8. She has three adopted immigrant children, very not white, but she is not saying much about

the children in cages...puzzling...and playing on the fear factor of "open borders" is just a plain lie.

Laura is a real condundrum.

[Major Nikon]

9. The answer is pretty simple

When it comes to empathy there's basically three kinds of people. There's those who can feel empathy simply because it's the right thing to do. There's others who must personally identify with those who are disadvantaged due to their own associations. Then there's those who aren't going to feel empathy regardless. Sociopaths are found in the last category.

10. That makes it strange but not really better

I wonder what her kids think about their "mother" talking about immigrants turning the country into something unwanted. Makes one really feel welcome.

[IronLionZion]

14. Her 2 sons are Russian, her daughter is Guatamalan

I notice how many automatically assume that immigrants are "very not white". Does that mean that Americans are white? I'm American and I'm very not white. I know white immigrants.

She has never married and adopted the 3 kids as a single mom. She has also dated immigrants. Perhaps to provide cover for her open racism.

[Fred Sanders]

29. I am not among the "many", you have the wrong context.

[IronLionZion]

30. Good

[machoneman]

23. Let's hope Fox finally nails her what the racist she really is!

Having her kicked off the show and out of Fox would be immensely satisfying!

[heaven05]

5. I'm not fooled

she a racist pig like the rest marching this week in D.C. Now I want to see if trump joins them..for one his 'rallies' or something???? finally this is what I think of her little speech

[ChiTownDenny]

7. HAHAHAHA!

Yeah, right:
Laura Ingraham's nazi salute to Donald Trump at Republican Convention, 2016.

11. "Secure borders" never "bound our country together." Typically revisionist right-wing "history."

Ingraham lies.

[Timmygoat]

12. Do you think she knows

That when her grandparents came to the US they were considered 'undesirables' because they were Poles.

[Nitram]

18. If she does, she's deeply hypocritical. Right wingers are wonderfully capable of avoiding

putting themselves in others' shoes. They don't do honest introspection. They start from the proposition that they are special, and everything follows from that.

[NoMoreRepugs]

13. She may be neck and neck with Suckabee and Coultergeist for most vile woman in America.

[IronLionZion]

15. Yes, we can't believe this video of her words and context

Because she is unbelievably clear about her racism

[Nitram]

19. "The left's effort to remake America?" How utterly ignorant.

The left is actually fighting to preserve American values, while Ingraham is inventing new values that support her feelings of entitlement.

[Major Nikon]

22. You have to remember what conservatives most want to conserve is white nationalism

[hibbing]

20. When DD endorses and praises your commentary you might be a racist n/t

[Major Nikon]

21. You can find the relevant text on several news outlets

“In some parts of the country it does seem like the America we know and love doesn’t exist anymore,” Ingraham continued. “Massive demographic changes have been foisted upon the American people. And they’re changes that none of us ever voted for and most of us don’t like.

“Now much of this is related to both illegal and, in some cases, legal immigration that of course progressives love,” she added.

...

Ingraham's comments quickly went viral on social media, with some reporters and pundits accusing her of using white nationalist rhetoric.

24. WARNING

watching goptv has been linked to non surgical lobotomies.

25. Three times in what, four months. She needs to be taken off the air, but I would like to hear...

her apology for the apology. Its time to get the list of her sponsors updated.

[Marcuse]

26. Birds of a Feather

27. I'm getting of the "white nationalist" name

To me it softens what these people are. I would be fine with racists, Nazis, or neo Nazis. Just imho.

Peace

28. In her rant day before, at about 9:10, she quite clearly used the word "other". It was racist.

"This is a way over time to remake and reshape America ... eventually overwhelming and diluting your vote with the votes of others"
