Hillary sucks up to a self-professed white supremacist leader on FOX and gets a pass.
Barack attends the church of an mouthy black pastor and it's the story of the decade.

There's your double standard.

When will Hillary finally denounce and or reject white supremacy?

2. I remember seeing that
Defender of White privilege. My thought was that it would be ignored because it was uttered in reference to immigration.

8. It was pretty much ignored, but it shouldn't have been.
As I recall, he said it on both his TV and radio shows, so he apparently put some thought into it.

Interesting, though, that we both know that white supremacism is seen by some as acceptable in some contexts and not in others.

5. Just the fact that she went on his show in the first place.
O' Reichly has been talking shit about the Clintons since FAUX went on the air. Yet Hillary is suddenly kissing his ass, just like she is with Richard Mellonhead Scaife. And bragging about Limbaugh's Dildoheads "winning" PA and Ohio for her.

6. So, does your criticism of Clinton for going on O'Reilly's show also apply to Dennis Kucinich?

7. I think she legitimizes his insanity by participating in it.
I didn't watch; I haven't watched Fox for some years now. But her doing that show is, alone, enough for me to be repulsed.

4. WTF is Obama going on there for?
Ugh ugh ugh... :banghead:

I know that some crack adviser thinks it's a good idea and I'm sure he'll perform well but I wish he'd release a statement saying that he refuses to appear on the show of a racist, misogynist, and known sexual harasser.

9. Wasn't he supposed to do Fox this weekend?
I agree. He should not set foot in that hole.

11. Maybe we can shame him away from O'Reilly.
Who was it that put the spell on Fox when the Fox Debate came along? I guess it was neither Obama nor Clinton.
