Morning Joe
Bob Herbert on his racist rant of mistaken identity and not the one he was talking about.
Let’s truly look past race as our obamessiah politically expediently Ciceroed in the city of our founding Fathers! Does the Bell still ring? I should know that but its not as bad as barry’s 57 states or Jonathan Capehart from the Washington Post wishing he had a map to see what states bordered Indiana. Willie Geist couldn’t find New Mexico. How can we expect them to know anything about barry?
barry initially wanted the Brandenburg Gate but it would be viewed as “electioneering”. What else was he doing? He was electioneering to the world before he is responsible for anything. His messianic complex knows no bound. A friend of Barack Sr said his downfall was arrogance and alcoholism…
(8-2-08) Herbert’s article: Running While Black:
Both ads [He relates McCain's to a Harold Ford ad.] are poisonous and emanate form the upper reaches of the Republican Party. [What a surprise.] Both were designed to exploit the hostility, anger and resentment of many white Americans who are freakishly hung up on the idea of black men raising above their station and becoming sexually involved with white women.
Recall Jesse Jr’s statement after Iowa. Something about how do we go after a white women [Sen Clinton]. The natural example is OJ & Nicole Smith.
Where do they get these ideas of how white people think? They don’t know that any more than I know how black folks think. But it’s ok for him to conjecture?
Why doesn’t anyone find this racist?
The Double Standard.
And Harold Ford married a blonde white woman…guess he must have called.

Even after it is pointed out, Herbert cannot and did not admit he was wrong.
Herbert thought it was the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Washington Monument. How many times has he seen the Washington Monument? And that McCain camp had inserted the phallic images to scare voters about interracial relationships & Obama “having relations” with white women. How insane is that? His mother married his father an African. And how does he know what whites think about black men? How is this not racist. Doesn’t he have anything else to write about?

BOB HERBERT: You guys have seen the ad a number of times, I am sure, and you have it here in-house. First thing you see are a couple of images of Britney Spears and Paris Hilton, right? And we see an image of Barack Obama right after that, comes quickly right at the beginning of the, you remember that, right? Do you remember any other startling images right there at the beginning?
Silence on the set.
HERBERT: Alright. There is an image right there in that very beginning of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and there is an image of the Washington Monument.
Look at the beginning of that ad again. And you tell me why those two phallic symbols are placed there [snaps fingers]—pow!—right at the very beginning of that ad.
Herbert writes for the New York Times. These things are what is so so aggravating. The large lies and then the lies that get layered on and people believe everyone despite easily findable truth
Do you know what a fraud barry is?
A re you so blinded by certain racism in anything said or done about barry?
I just want to know.
I don’t care if you don’t know who barry is – I would just like to know if you exist.
