Fox conservatives sound off on ‘white women.’

Fox conservatives sound off on ‘white women.’
On Fox News Sunday today, the Fox “all stars” discussed the possibility of Hillary Clinton being chosen as a vice president. Bill Kristol argued that Clinton would not be a valuable vice presidential pick because she lacks support beyond the “Democratic establishment and white women.” The “establishment” can be ignored, Kristol argued, but “white women are a problem.” He added, “But we all live with them.” “Not me,” said Juan Williams. Brit Hume chimed in, “For the record, I like white women.” “I know, I shouldn’t have said that,” Kristol concluded. Watch it:

Keep it up, guys.
February 3rd, 2008 at 11:59 amYou look like the fools you are.
There’s a lot of things you should have never said, Kristol. This is only one. But thanks again for demonstrating your bone-crushing stupidity for all to see.
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:00 pmMore from the Comic bigots….”Not me”..Juan Williams…lololol.
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:12 pmMouth meet foot…tasty toes.

I think it’s the Yankees and the Bulls.
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:24 pmWhat an incoherent rant. It goes without saying these fratboys are worth millions of bucks a year. Fox knows how to retain its talent.

Comment by Nevar — February 3, 2008 @ 12:24 pm
Thanks for the clarification.
I thought it was the Rams and the Oilers.
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:35 pmBTW, while I know it’s still too early for the results, I have to applaud progressives around the nation for its efforts to derail the clinton election machine. This country doesn’t need another 4-8 years of triangulating politics, or giving republicans the benefit of every deal.
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:36 pmThis is really to much information as now these guys are coming out of the closet. As for woman well we’re sister regardless of color but if you don’t like woman then you must prefer men. As for Brit Hume he had to speak up as he got his job because his wife gave it to him. With Mrs. Hume, Brit would be jobless. Right Brit you don’t bite the hand that feeds you. Now these sickos should join up with Tweety and O’Reilly. That would be a comedy show with the highest ratings.
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:42 pmAll the idiots, racist, woman haters and closet people all together to air their sick views representing their Republican Party. Maybe Ann would join in too.
I wonder what Laura Bush thinks of the comment about White woman isn’t she white?
McWars, ask yourself can Obama handle the republicans? I have my doubts.

Comment by wisedup — February 3, 2008 @ 12:42 pm
I mentioned to a big Obama supporter two things:
1 – His saying Reagan brought the country together
2 – His cozy relationship with AIPAC.
His answers were (1) On he didn’t say that, he meant Reagan was a great communicator. This is out of the mouth of a so-called “liberal”. Reagan, who started this free market insanity, busted Unions, Iran-Contra, and favored the rich. And (2) He said, “Obama will pull the rug out from AIPAC when he gets in”. This is Naive beyond description. EVERY candidate that has a chance is being endorsed by AIPAC. O-Bomb-ya says to get out of Iraq because it is such a miserable failure, but bombing Iran is not out the question.
We are being duped again. McCain or Romney vs Obama or Clinton. More wars on the horizon.
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:51 pmI, too, think Obama can handle the Repugnicans.
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:53 pmClinton, unfortunately, is so polarizing (undeservedly) that the Repugs will remain ceaseless in keeping the nation divided. Even people who like her and fondly remember the nineties are eager to move forward and not revert back to the last decade.
That hope that Obama touts is real; he does offer a change and I think he can have a positive effect on the nation, not only at home, but internationally as well.
McWars, ask yourself can Obama handle the republicans? I have my doubts.

February 3rd, 2008 at 12:58 pm2 – His cozy relationship with AIPAC.
I’m tired of seeing this and not challenging it. Why do you think you can make blanket statements like #2 above to justify saying that it will automatically result in endless wars.
Sorry but that just don’t fly. I hate the fact that the relationship exists too but it don’t mean they will take us to war because of it….necessariily
gw bush so far is the only one that had these close relationships that fell for it and went to war on thier behalf.
Even his dad resisted, as did rayguy…..damn that was hard to say but mostly true except his dad did attack just not occupy…..he just didn’t swallow……….
so how in the hell do you get from bill clinton to hillary and obama resulting in endless war…..didn’t happen under Bill….
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:59 pmHis answers were (1) On he didn’t say that, he meant Reagan was a great communicator. This is out of the mouth of a so-called “liberalâ€. Reagan, who started this free market insanity, busted Unions, Iran-Contra, and favored the rich.
Well, it’s true. Reagan was a great communicator. He was an actor, for pete’s sake – of course he was a great communicator.
Great communicator is not the same as great President. Adolf Hitler was a great communicator, too – that doesn’t mean he was good for Germany.
And (2) He said, “Obama will pull the rug out from AIPAC when he gets inâ€. This is Naive beyond description. EVERY candidate that has a chance is being endorsed by AIPAC. O-Bomb-ya says to get out of Iraq because it is such a miserable failure, but bombing Iran is not out the question.
Comment by Brain From Planet Arous — February 3, 2008 @ 12:51 pm
No candidate can win without AIPAC’s blessing, unfortunately. I trust Obama far more than “bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb McCain.”
February 3rd, 2008 at 1:04 pmSimply put, Obama is the best alternative out there. In fact, he is the only alternative. The first thig that has to be dealt with is undoing the harm Bush has foisted on this nation. Obama will make mistakes (they all do) but his mistakes will not begin to equal the grave sh!t pile our current pResident has given us.
February 3rd, 2008 at 1:12 pmso how in the hell do you get from bill clinton to hillary and obama resulting in endless war…..didn’t happen under Bill….

Fred, normally I respect your views, but I will counter challenge your challenge.
Obama has said he would use force against Iran for his Zionist handlers.

Now, Hillary is even more in bed with AIPAC. Look at the State of the Union last week. She stood up and clapped when Bush mentioned more wars.
Bush has been such a miserable failure that even Snoop Dog could be elected if he ran.
February 3rd, 2008 at 1:14 pmA brick wall, long posts, and blindfolds for these guys wouldn’t be too unseemly, would they?
February 3rd, 2008 at 1:15 pm“I know, I shouldn’t have said that,†Kristol concluded.

Yeah right Kristol. You know you should have said it when the cameras were off so you can keep the deplorable traits of right wingers concealed.

America supports many countries, I dont think we should, however, ‘pledge’ to any of them. Israel can protect itself and like a child growing into an adult there comes a time for them to stand up, support themselves and cut the umbilical cord.
February 3rd, 2008 at 1:57 pmWhen actually the saying is “barefoot and pregnantâ€. -JA
I suppose you missed the modifier “I guess they want” which isnt a projection. As for the saying I know how it goes and didnt want to repeat the same tired saying verbatim.

My solution would be to give all the land that Israel stole back to the Palestinians and then give Texas to the Jews. All the Jews move out of the Middle East to Texas (now renamed Israel) and all the Palestinians return to their homeland.
February 3rd, 2008 at 2:16 pmI, too, have reservations about Senator Obama’s plan to “reach out” to Republicans. Those bastards have done nothing to seek accommodation with Democrats for decades. They have sought to defame and derail us at every turn (Remember the pathetic Clinton impeachment?)
I am reminded of the parable about the scorpion who persuaded the frog to give him a piggyback ride across the pond. The frog was reluctant, to say the least, but the scorpion promised he would not sting the frog. Half way across the water, the scorpion slammed his stinger into the frog. Stunned, the frog asked, “Why, oh why, did you do that? Now both of us will drown!” The scorpion replied, “I couldn’t help it: it is my nature.”
It is the nature of Republicans to screw over Democrats — and the American people — at every turn. I am very uneasy at Obama’s plan to reach out to them.
Senator Clinton, on the other hand, has looked into the fiery eyes of the Republican beast. She knows exactly who and what they are. She bears the scars from two decades of battles and she — and her husband — have beaten them time and time again.
Since John Edwards, who promised to give no quarter to the Republcian money barons, has dropped out, my support goes to the Senator from the Empire State of New York.
February 3rd, 2008 at 2:21 pmWhat I find contradictory is that so-called liberals jump up and down, waving arms when Exxon and Lockheed lobby Right-Wing politicians, but are silent with AIPAC’s just as large sums of money to Democrats and republicans.
I also DO NOT like my tax dollars supporting Zionist ideals on Foreign Policy.

Yes, just as I disagreed with Prescott Bush, Nixon, and Joe McCarthy supporting the Nazis before and after they invaded Poland.

And if Fox finds “white women” to be problematic, then start firing all the white women that work for Fox News. Here’s some problematic “white women”, Lynn Cheney, Laura Bush, Ann Coulter and Dana Perino to start with. Condi, is only 1/2 problematic because she is a black “woman”.

February 3rd, 2008 at 3:37 pmdelafield, I am sick and tired of Oil, Military, and Zionists dictating where our dollars go. This “You are Anti-Semitic” if you question Israel’s motives is a crock of sheet, much like if you question gangsta rap you are “racist”. I know many Jews who detest the current Likud/Zionist insanity, and I know African-Americans who like Jimi Hendrix, Sam Cooke, and Dionne Warwick much more than 50 Cent. Sort of like questioning the Bush administration, and you are labeled “Un-American” by Neo-Conartists and their brain damaged followers.

February 3rd, 2008 at 6:28 pmI think he can. I think he can peel off a good portion of the evangelical vote that’s currently going to the Republicans.
Comment by toasterhead — February 3, 2008 @ 12:44 pm
Well, the portion he can peel off are the Black Evangelicals. The problem is, that to do so, he has to throw gays off his bus (and he made a pretty good start at doing just that when he signed Donnie McClurkin on to that little tour last year).
Obama won’t make any inroads into the White Evangelicals because they’ll back whichever of the GOPers gets the nod. McCain’s sucked up enough to the Evangelical tit/ass that he can still get that vote. Romney’s “Mormon problem” won’t be that much of one (I live in Alabama and I’ve seen more signs of support for Romney than any other GOP candidate*); Mormons are, for the Evangelicals, the “new Catholics”, and we’ve all seen how tied together the Evangelicals and Catholics have been in the last few Presidential election cycles. Huckabee? Well he IS an Evangelical. No way in hell that he’ll get less than 95% of the White Evangelical vote in November if he’s the GOP nominee (I would say that he’d get the full 100% but every group’s got its dissenting voices); if Huckabee has the GOP nomination, he could easily undo Obama’s hard-fought “gains” with Black Evangelicals (in which case Obama will have that McClurkin problem with the LGBT community). (Ron Paul won’t get the nomination so it’s pretty pointless considering him, but on the very off chance he should, the whole of the Evangelical community, Black AND White, will probably sit out the election, unless some strong Evangelical name launches a late 3rd party effort.)
*By signs of support, I mean the type in people’s yards and on their car bumpers, not the stuff that’s anonymously slapped onto utility poles.
February 3rd, 2008 at 6:32 pmuh…there is no more Neo conservative party.

I guess that means that George Bush, Dick Cheney, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Bill O’Reilly, and Michael Savage are now Liberals.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEEEEEEEIIIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii……………………….

Yeah. you’re right. Where can a fellow turn for some inane rants about atheism when they feel the need?

Yep.

Get over it. I mispelled it first

Comment by justasking — February 3, 2008 @ 7:07 pm
yes, justassing, all those posts, and you’ve yet to make a point of any salience. some things never change. we don’t need bartlebee, we have you for irrelevance and emptiness.
February 3rd, 2008 at 7:09 pmYou took the time to type that?
February 3rd, 2008 at 7:12 pmOld and in the way.
February 3rd, 2008 at 7:13 pmI’ll happily step aside and watch you trip headlong into the ditch.
And walk across on your youthful springy carcass.
Hope you don’t mind.
Damn I’m good!
Two repartees, to a single post, in a row, from the same poster, who wasn’t even directly addressed!

Perhaps you should just sit back and see if the eejit can do a bartlebee and just carry a conversation with itself. It’s only up to two comments, but you never know . . .

Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t ask you about the path you’re walking down..

gummitch – that has to be one of the best comebacks I’ve ever read. You rock, brother.
February 3rd, 2008 at 7:51 pmdbadass, Nevar – if only the troll new :) Ha!
And to add to an above comment, the white Evangelies will NOT be voting this November. They’ve already been told to stay home or write-in Hucklebee.
February 3rd, 2008 at 8:05 pmAnd yes, I do take offense to men trashing women in public. If Fox News finds white women so problematic, then Ann Coulter along with countless other white women will never appear on this network. That should take care of the problem of “white women”.
February 3rd, 2008 at 8:07 pmThere was a time when I didn’t want Fox commentators to get any air time. Of late, I have been wishing they would be on 24/7 in every living room in the country. They are SO out of touch and SO ignorant and SO buffonish that the country needs to see them for exactly what they are. Keep talking morons!
February 3rd, 2008 at 8:12 pmClinton, unfortunately, is so polarizing (undeservedly) that the Repugs will remain ceaseless in keeping the nation divided. Even people who like her and fondly remember the nineties are eager to move forward and not revert back to the last decade.
Comment by Marie — February 3, 2008 @ 12:53 pm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If Marie thinks that Hillary is polarizing, what does she think will happen if Obama gets the nomination? Do you think that the Republicans will be kind, loving, generous, and helpful to Obama?
If Obama gets the nomination (which is exactly what the GOP wants) they will make Obama look more evil than Adolf Hitler, Jeffrey Dahmer, and Josef Stalin combined.
February 3rd, 2008 at 8:23 pmja – gummitch would excuse my “typo”. I know it should be “knew” and not “new”.

February 3rd, 2008 at 8:31 pmThe interviewer asked if he was going to endoHe is does not practice endorsing candidates. But that’s what they all say at first. This interview took place just before Edwards dropped out.
Comment by justasking — February 3, 2008 @ 8:27 pm
Remember Michael Dukakis in 1988? They’re going to be asking the same question about Obama’s run in 2008 if he gets the nomination.
February 3rd, 2008 at 8:33 pmNice deflection, Nevar.
What is this deflection stuff all about?
February 3rd, 2008 at 8:37 pmDeflection from what?
“To who” was your question, I offered an answer.
WTF is wrong with you?
Your bashing me was the deflection.

It’s ritualized combat.

I am so tired of the Daily Kos and its pro Obama site, its really getting old.
It would be nice if this site had a daily open thread that wasn’t pro anything or subject guided.
I usually read the front page but have been posting to a particular board rooted since 1997. I dabbled on Kos but I can’t stand it anymore.
February 3rd, 2008 at 10:07 pmCactus Jack, TP has an open thread each weekday morning called “Think Fast.”
February 3rd, 2008 at 10:14 pmLooks like weekends are slow as hell on TP, what with all three threads up.

Not that I have’n't seen some violent chess games…
Geez, people…get a sense of humor! If Fox News said the sun is hot, most of the commenters here would accuse them of sexual harrassment. And if they made a joke about it, they would be bigots and fascists as well.
February 5th, 2008 at 8:28 am*BertConvy..? More like “Bert and Ernie”
“hildebeast” Well, at least she’s not a lying BASTARD like Bush…or a racially ignorant “can bill dance like a brother” Obama.
February 5th, 2008 at 11:35 amAs for woman well we’re sister regardless of color but if you don’t like woman then you must prefer men. As for Brit Hume he had to speak up as he got his job because his wife gave it to him. With Mrs. Hume, Brit would be jobless. Right Brit you don’t bite the hand that feeds you. Now these sickos should join up with Tweety and O’Reilly. That asus m3000n battery,asus m3000np battery would be a comedy show with the highest ratings.
October 15th, 2008 at 3:56 amAll the idiots, racist, woman haters and closet people all together to air their sick views representing their Republican Party. Maybe Ann would join in too.
I wonder what Laura Bush thinks of the comment about White woman isn’t she white?
