Yeah, I thought this was kinda weird too:

Quote :

"Florida Congressman: Palin 'Don't Care Too Much What They Do With Jews and Blacks' ABC News' Teddy Davis Reports: Florida Democratic Congressman Alcee Hastings pointed to Sarah Palin on Wednesday to rally Jews to Obama. "If Sarah Palin isn’t enough of a reason for you to get over whatever your problem is with Barack Obama, then you damn well had better pay attention," said Hastings. "Anybody toting guns and stripping moose don’t care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks. So, you just think this through." Hastings, who is a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, made his comments in Washington, D.C., while participating in a panel discussion sponsored by the National Jewish Democratic Council. Asked what the congressman meant, Hastings spokesman David Goldenberg told ABC News that he was trying to argue that Palin is an "extremely conservative woman who is out of touch with mainstream America." After saying that Palin "don't care too much" about Jews and blacks, Hastings argued that African Americans and Jews should come together behind Obama because there are many issues on which they agree. "Just like Jews, blacks care about affordable health care, energy independence, and the separation of church and state," said Hastings. "And just like blacks, Jews care about equal pay for equal work, investment in alternative energy, and a woman's right to choose." Asked about the Hastings criticism, Palin spokeswoman Maria Comella said, "We’re taking a pass.""

Just a little bit of "George Bush doesn't care about Black People", amirite

NOBAMA sticker's stock went up after that ignorant rant

9/25/2008 12:26:30 PM

That was a pretty idiotic statement of hastings to make.

9/25/2008 12:28:44 PM

damn those Jews and blacks are two peas in a pod

They both care about affordable health care, equal pay for equal work, AND they both care about investment in alternative energy? Amazing that two seemingly different groups of people can be so alike.

It's also amazing that whites care nothing about those issues.

9/25/2008 12:42:36 PM

Palin has probably never even met a jew till she left Alaska

9/25/2008 12:45:25 PM

I can't tell what he's trying to say exactly.

I think he's just trying to remind minorities to stick together?

so a democratic congressman said this? wow...sounds like something Leroy would say

Glad to know, though, that, because I am white, I am a racist, and this guy, because he is black, is not a racist

9/26/2008 3:00:04 PM

No if anything the way you continously harp about him only winning because he is black burro, that actually makes you a douche if not a racist.

Although for you the latter description here has me suspicious, the former is fucking confirmed.

9/26/2008 3:21:52 PM

why does calling a spade a spade make me a douche or a racist? is the truth a douche? Is the truth racist?

9/26/2008 3:44:16 PM

Because it's neither a spade or a truth.

You and your minority few in this country that share your stance are dead wrong about this. There is nothing accomplished in being ignorant.

9/26/2008 3:58:07 PM

ha. my "minority few?"

tell me, do you think that if a Republican got up and started talking about how one candidate or another was "good for white voters" or "bad for white voters" that he would be given a free pass? FUCK NO. The point here is that if it is racist for one person to say it, it is equally as racist for another to say it. but, again, you'll just sling mud because you have no valid argument.

Where's my white entertainment television?

9/26/2008 4:05:08 PM

NBC, FOX, CBS?

9/26/2008 4:05:29 PM

(I was being sarcastic.)

9/26/2008 4:06:59 PM

Damn you, fr33nor

9/26/2008 4:10:56 PM

where is my blatantly named white entertainment network? that's what you need to ask. but it's all good. Only whites are racist, and only whites can be racist.

9/26/2008 4:13:58 PM

(Nobody is saying that.)

9/26/2008 4:57:25 PM

^^ When BEt was started, did whites need a "blatantly named" TV station?

9/26/2008 7:21:20 PM

It is sad because I guess he has nothing else to run on.

9/27/2008 6:08:00 AM

^^ Does anyone need a blatantly named TV station?

9/27/2008 11:41:01 AM

^No, but the owners make more money if they name it so.

That damned free market.

YEP, THERE'S EVEN A "3 P'S OF RACISM." YOU CANNOT BE RACIST UNLESS YOU FULFILL THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS:

POWER
PRIVILEGE
PREJUDICE

THEREFORE, ONLY WHITES CAN BE RACIST. A BLACK PERSON CAN ONLY BE PREJUDICED. SEE HOW THAT WORKS SON? I THINK IT'S A FANCY WAY FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE TO SHED ALL REASON AND RESPONSIBILITY, BUT HEY, THAT'S JUST ME.

IT'S KIND OF LIKE WHEN A WHITE PERSON SAYS THAT AN ASIAN BOY WOULDN'T HAVE HAD HIS ASS BEAT IF HIS SCHOOL HADN'T BEEN NAMED "HERITAGE."

I can understand about blacks wanting equal pay but why would Jewish people want a pay cut?

BET's largest viewer demographic is young white males. Just throwing it out there.
