Last summer’s Health Care Reform (HCR) bill kicked off a flurry of racist ranting from the Tea Party and other folks gathering at town hall meetings.
Now it does not take a genius to teach black folks about the ins and outs of racism. Some live it every day. Tim Wise, author of “White Like Me,“ has written and spoken extensively on the subject and is a staunch advocate of anti-racism.
In the past, I’ve always thought that white people just don’t have the experience, the gravitas to talk about racism. But what he presents and how it is presented his case is another matter. some white people are more apt to listen to some one who looks like them, meaning another white person. Now they might not agree with Tim’s views on white racism, but what he says will at least get their attention, simply because he’s white.
Here’s an example of Tim breaking it down on CNN during the health-care reform debates:
Tim Wise, author of “White Like Me,” talks to CNN’s Don Lemon about clues that some opposition is rooted in race. 8/2009
August 15, 2010 CNN’s Don Lemon with panel Tim Wise, Jill Merrit, and John Ridley
IS THE N-WORD EVER OK?
Testing
You did it!
Can we talk about Blago here?
WE can talk about whatever you like, vette. Go for it!
Larry King said, “Dr. Laura is chucking it” LMBAO!!
Buh-bye
LOL! ;-)
LMBAO
Ten minutes and gone. She didnt need to come on tv to tell us that, just could have faxed it to the media and no one woulda care in the least. Good riddance. When will these CACs realize that it aint kewl to go on these Macaca Rants.
“When will these CACs realize that it aint kewl to go on these Macaca Rants?”
NEVER
How do you bold?
Humph, wrinkled face Laura better learned damn quick. Yelling nigger cost her a radio show. Bye Beyotch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Laura’s sponsors shit a ton of bricks after that lil racist rant of hers. Now there’s no doubt that some of them share her sentiments, but can’t come out and rant nigger,nigger, nigger!
Theycan’t make $$$ from the niggers if you do that, now can they.
I’m all for 1st amendment rights, and equally for accepting FULL responsiblitiy for exercises it.
Good riddance to very BAD RUBBISH!
Dear Dr Laura,
Don’t let the door knob hit cha, where the good Lord split cha!
Good Riddance, beyotch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Signed
Me!
LMBAO! You’re inside my head, SG2. Shameful advertising for her next gig. She could care less about that sista Jade.
I’m sure her attorneys and PR agent coached her on that first amendment speil… I gotcha 1st amendment’s right chere, Dr. Laura.
Hiding, running, collapsing and quitting — all of the above is what she is doing.
Affiliates and sponsors being attacked is very disheartening. Calling somebody a “nigger” is disheartening too. Get outta here.
Really, Dr. Laura, take a hike and don’t let the door hitcha where the good lord split ya!
Notice how white folks like Dr. Laura never misses a beat. She’s moving on to the next paid gig. plugging her books and shit. Fuck her.
Love this blog…freedom of speech!
The beyotch is nutty as hell.
Here’s where Dr. Laura’s going: http://360jobinterview.com/blog/2009/05/career-time-out-in-the-naughty-chair/
Compliments of dj!

There she goes with her FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS!!!!! So now this woman is a VICTIM! They have been usurped! Take responsibility for your RACIST BEHAVIOR, Dr. Laura!
So she’s leaving radio and laying low for a while.
Phuck her! She should learn to shut that wrinkled face of hers!
She has had a face lift recently. Her face used to look like a map.
Kathy Griffin just said that she didnt know what kind of doctor Dr. Laura was, “a botanist”? LOL
That bitch said she felt freer to exercise her rights, to say what she wants. She’s agitated because she still blaming the nigga’s for her sponsors giving her the AXE. BETTER “AXE” SOMEBODY…. LMBAO
My first amendment rights have been usurped by the sponsors! LOL
GOOD! What about JADE? Dr. Laura is doing what whitey does, cry victim and 1st amendment rights. She needs to take responsibility for her racist rant.
I’m waiting for this miss slick to comment on her statement about telling Jade that she shouldn’t marry outside of her race.
This woman is just given a platform to sell her nonsense in the way of books, etc. Good riddance to her!
Dr. Laura is jumping ship!
BWA HA HA HA ……Just like her sponsors jumped ship. Money so talks, doesn’t it, vette?
As the saying goes, Money talks & BS walks!
The Sponsors must have said….we can’t have you yelling “nigger” on the airwaves like that. You gots to go!
Interesting Larry who is Jewish gets the first interview with Dr. Larua who is Jewish,
Damn, the makeup is thick tonight.
She on King to get the Jewish sympathy…
To vette & SG2
LOL, I’m checking on why I can’t reply directly under comments. thanks for your patience.
Vette, don’t hold your breath on Dr. Laura paying a sista’s bills. That would ruin her image as a staunch advocate for calling blacks welfare queens.
Larry King will interview Dr. Laura tonight at 8pm CST
Oh really now, re you going to watch it, vette?
Just saw Spik Lee on KO.
Yeah, Dr. Laura is supposed to make a major announcement on his show tonight. Can’t wait…maybe she’s retiring or paying all of Jade’s therapy bills.
O I just love the picture of the Cherry Blossoms!! Beautiful….
