6. Rachel: What Do The Four Major Made-Up FOX Scandals ALL HAVE IN COMMON?
Edited on Wed Jul-21-10 08:17 PM by Hissyspit
- Van Jones
- ACORN
- The Black Panther Story
- Shirley Sherrod


What is the one shared characteristic of them all?

All designed to make white people FEAR black people. It works. They won't stop doing it until, someday, it stops working.

Her opening segment.

3. that was BRILLIANT
but it will not stop working... oh and cue in willi horton, or his successor, that will be used to scare the white voter.

Racism is real folks, but there is a way to fight it... not that this administration, or any other since Clinton, has the cajones to push for it...

Say after me....

Fairness Doctrine...

Repeat it often

Fairness Doctrine...

5. Rachel's Smackdown Was Better Than KO's...
She detailed the ongoing campaign to scare the great unwashed...and how its working. Keith showed the emotion, Rachel, as always, shows the context. Well done by both.

9. I'm fuming.. It's becoming fairly obvious that this cannot stand.
We need to start brainstorming solutions now.

16. LOVE ME SOME RACHEL
Some hits on the mark on every story, every time. As a African-American, I am SO PROUD that she spoke for me tonight.

Obama needs to grow a brain and stop walking the fine line of trying to please all the people, all the time. Pleased the people that ACTUALLY voted for you, why don't you.

Obama to self....watch "The American President" 8 times before waking up tomorrow, then tomorrow, get your asset out there and give the Speech on RACE RELATIONS IN AMERICA, that you were born to give!

If not, Face a Primary Challenger in 2012...and many African-Americans that voted for you in 2008, will stay home!

19. I was hoping someone would post about this. It's just phenomenal.
"They're coming for you." That about says it. That's about said it since time began and people had some bone to gnash their teeth over. The "bone", fortunately, is getting bigger and bigger, but "equal"? Like the lady said, it's a class issue, a poverty issue.

You GO Rachel.

22. I Didn't See It
Is it on YouTube somewhere? Because it sounds like "Must See TV." Maybe MSNBC's website?
