Can anyone explain to me what this congresswomen meant or was thinking when she said the republicans are looking for their great white hope? I was under the belief that the phrase has obvious racist connotations that date back to the early 1900's. Is that incorrect? Or, in the alternative, do people here think that this women just is ignorant about what the words she is saying actually means? Please help me figure this one out guys. Thanks.
olbermann sucked on espn, and sucks as a so called political know it all. He needs a good ol kick in the face. I won't watch sunday night football 'cause they screwed up and brought this jackass into the pre game show. NBC sucks. I'm ashamed he is a white male in today's society. Jackass.
LOL look up what Waters want to "Be all about" she makes a GREAT soundbite to the oil companies. It is CLASSIC. Speaking of slips. Oh and Olberwomann is such a super left wing jerk.
1st of all Obama is half white. (In case by his blatant ass kissing, he didn't relize that)
2nd of all for him to have Maxine Waters on is a JOKE!!! She's as much of a nutjob as Blubberman is!!! She's also so in the tank for Obama it's sick!!!! Maxine Waters is one of the reasons why the state of California is in the condition it's in!!!!
People bitch about Fox not being "fair and balanced", but this sure is not "fair and balanced"..........This is a joke!!!!
I live in Burbank just about a mile from where Jeffries had his "boxing barn" and I know what "The Great White Hope" culturally means. Its like saying to a jewish guy "I hope the boss doesn't go all "final solution" on you. Oh! I meant "fire you". You have to be really ignorant not to realize the implications of certain phrases in our culture.
....she needs a "GREAT" white hope to defeat Obama...? Not just a pretty good white hope, or an average white hope would do...? How about a run of the mill white hope, or a fairly decent white hope...? Wouldn't an okie dokie white hope work...? I'm thinking Ted Nuggent...with Chuck Norris as his running mate.
Yes, It is your fault if you are offended. Grow a set. And Pulling Maxine Waters (Socialist-CA) as a voice of reason. Ha! Olbermann is a JOKE!

Olbermann needs to be air-dropped into the Congo (and hopefully cannibalized.)

I'm pushing 60 and I never new what " Great White Hope" really meant !
I really doubt that the Congresswoman knew !
Waters try's to play it down, but this IDIOT keeps pushing the issue !
For a White Man to use the Race Card is Racist !

Olbermann needs a Jena 6 style beat down to knock some sense into him.

This schmuck called Pat Boone a racist for asking ""Do we know how cancer starts, where the black filthy cells come from?"
Olbermann the guilty white limosine liberal doesn't know that racism applies to negroes, not to cancer cells.
