Brian Kilmeade of Fox and Friends AM show...

[RightIsWrong]

I think that I can smell an apology being issued within the next day or two...

http://www.salon.com/politics/.../07/08/qotd/index.html

Watching Fox News' morning show, "Fox and Friends," is a little bit like watching the aftermath of a particularly nasty car crash. Yeah, it's awful, but you just have to keep looking, because, well, who knows what mangled body parts they'll pull from the wreckage next?

Even by those standards, though, host Brian Kilmeade's performance on Wednesday was just terrible.

Kilmeade and two colleagues were discussing a study that, based on research done in Finland and Sweden, showed people who stay married are less likely to suffer from Alzheimer's. Kilmeade questioned the results, though, saying, "We are -- we keep marrying other species and other ethnics and other ..."

At this point, his co-host tried to -- in that jokey morning show way -- tell Kilmeade he needed to shut up, and quick, for his own sake. But he didn't get the message, adding, "See, the problem is the Swedes have pure genes. Because they marry other Swedes .... Finns marry other Finns, so they have a pure society."[/b]

Paging Dr. Goebbels...is Dr. Goebbels in the house?

That's funny, considering that it was 2 Democrats that proposed Constitutional amendments to make interracial marriage illegal: Andrew King in 1871, and Seaborn Roddenbery in 1912 and 1913.

You do realize we're living in the year 2009, right?

Of course I do. I just find it telling that you felt the need to excoriate me for making a factual (albeit dated) statement, yet seemingly had no problem with Phokus making an idiotic generalization about Republicans. Of course, I should have known better than to expect anything less from you.

100 years ago vs last few Days, I think we need a committee to return a finding that we can then use for discussion.

I'll concede that the actions of 2 politicians many years ago are not representative of the entire Democratic party if you concede that the actions of some jackass on tv are not representative of the entire Republican party. Deal?

See in today's terminology they would be republicans. Like Lincoln would be a democrat.

Read up on how the focus of the 2 parties changed around the time of the Great Depression (actually quite interesting and subtle.

Agreed, but this kind of thing has been going on with such regularity amongst such a large number of people that it would seem to be a significant part of the Republican Party.

Please provide a link showing that Republicans are against interracial marriage and advocate racial purity. Take your time...

[Hayabusa Rider]

Ah, heck. Even I know that the majority of Reps find this stuff stupid. There are always idiots who seem to go out of their way to be loud and ignorant.

I also know the "magic negro" stuff was aimed mostly at the easily offended to get them into a huff, and I'd say it worked pretty well.

The "Obama the magic negro" phrase was actually coined by a liberal op-ed writer for the LA Times. Limbaugh started using it to make a point that it was apparently okay for a liberal to say it, but a conservative would be condemned for it. As far as the Republican rallies go, it would be unfair to use the actions of a few morons against the whole party, just as it would be unfair to use the actions of several liberal idiots (Sandra Bernhard, multiple vandals, people wearing "Sarah Palin is a wise and beautiful woman" t-shirts) against the entire Democratic party.

"republican rallies" is vague and incoherent at best. you need to address the question once again, but be more specific

You do realize the modern day republican party was built around racism, right? Lookup 'southern strategy' and 'dog whistle politics'.

From now on, the Republicans are never going to get more than 10 to 20 percent of the Negro vote and they don't need any more than that... but Republicans would be shortsighted if they weakened enforcement of the Voting Rights Act. The more Negroes who register as Democrats in the South, the sooner the Negrophobe whites will quit the Democrats and become Republicans. That's where the votes are. Without that prodding from the blacks, the whites will backslide into their old comfortable arrangement with the local Democrats.[3]

You start out in 1954 by saying, "great person, *****, *****." By 1968 you can't say "*****"?that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states' rights and all that stuff. You're getting so abstract now [that] you're talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you're talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is [that] blacks get hurt worse than whites.

And subconsciously maybe that is part of it. I'm not saying that. But I'm saying that if it is getting that abstract, and that coded, that we are doing away with the racial problem one way or the other. You follow me?because obviously sitting around saying, "We want to cut this," is much more abstract than even the busing thing, and a hell of a lot more abstract than "great person, *****".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_strategy

Do you even realize that most of the racist dixiecrats jumped ship to the republican party after LBJ 'betrayed' the southern conservative democrats by signing the civil rights act?

 

[DAPUNISHER]

"Marrying other species" Wow, I think he is late for a clan rally :Q;

She had a good zinger with the "Are you sure you aren't suffering from some of the cognitive dementia right now?!?"

You can't really apologize for something like that, he was clearly verbalizing his beliefs. I suppose he can apologize for expressing them, and that he should have remained a closet racist? It will be synonymous to doing damage control on a flaming car wreck, no matter what you do, just an ugly hunk of shit will be left.

In 1967, 17 Southern states (all the former slave states plus Oklahoma) still enforced laws prohibiting marriage between whites and people of color. Maryland repealed its law in response to the start of the proceedings at the Supreme Court. After the ruling of the Supreme Court, the remaining laws were no longer in effect. Nonetheless, it took South Carolina until 1998 and Alabama until 2000 to officially amend their states' constitutions to remove language prohibiting miscegenation. In the respective referendums, 62% of voters in South Carolina and 59% of voters in Alabama voted to remove these laws.

 

[Red Dawn]

That guy and that show are a joke, even Republicans think it's a joke. It's Fox's version of the "Morning Zoo" that's on a lot of stations during the commute except less entertaining.

You're excused from the thread due to inability to answer

Perhaps next time before implicitly suggesting that the majority of the republican party is racist, you arm yourself with some recent facts to back it up. Sorry, but a few youtube videos of a hick saying the N word and an op-ed article in the LA Times about a magic negro don't translate to the majority of the republican party being racist. That's a big leap, even for you. Don't get me wrong, I hate republicans as much as the next guy, but I prefer facts to accusations. Due to your failure to provide any prudent facts, I accept the withdrawal of your accusation wholeheartedly

Find yourself another reason to bash the R's -and base it on facts, not hyperbole- and I will gladly jump on the bandwagon
