Black Scholar Dr Boyce Watkins v Ben Ferguson on Fox News

[crusader199017]

I'm a conservative and I can't stand Ben Ferguson, the guy makes the conservative base look bad. All the guy is, is a whiney, ill-informed loser who got where he is today because of his rich parents.

Ben Ferguson is a chicken hawk

I sleep well at night knowing that Ben Ferguson is keeping me and my family safe from all of those terrorist! Oh, wait! Ben never served in any branch of the military. Then he goes on to make foolish comments like, "terrorist would rather have a democrat in the W/H, prior to their attacks." Need I remind him about 9/11? Besides, Randi Rhodes made a complete ass of this dork about his military contributions, or lack therof.

[booty1983]

"What do you make of that... since Democrats have been associated with cutting funding and support for programs that try to keep track of terrorist phone calls, that sort of thing..."

Lol. He's talking about the "Patriot Act," which basically says: If you do something we don't like, we'll investigate you and root through all of your personal affairs with, or without your knowledge. They'll just call you a "suspect," and it's justified in the eyes of the court.

This is the dumbest thing I heard besides the Palin interviews. A Republican was President when the biggest terrorist attack on America took place you goon! Thanks for keeping us safe you elephants

the mercury summer drive events ends september third?1?1? DAM!! I MISSED IT!!!

Now that I'm far more educated in politics than 6 months ago, since I started a political blog, and post at least 3 posts a day which i research, this entire interview is false:

Fact: democrats go to war for more than republicans.

Fact: dems are far more violent than repubs

Fact: repubs have been far more generous to blacks than dems

Fact: with the exception of Bill Clinton, most repub presidents have done more for Blacks than dem presidents. [but Bill gave pork to everyone not just blacks]

@shakaama You are completely ignoring the fact that the people that make up today's Republican party are the same people who used to be Southern "Dixiecrats". The label changed, but the Republicans of today are essentially the Southern Democrats of pre-1950-60 or so.

Republicans are also clearly not more generous towards blacks. They tend to be against social programs that would help out blacks. There's a reason why almost all blacks are Democrat and organizations like the NAACP are liberal.

[shakaama]

@BenkaiDebussy oh the dixiecrats nice point.

But, as far as "generous" is concerned, I don't consider a "social" program a bonus to Black people. What I'm talking about when i say republicans have been more generous to Blacks [and i don't know why i was marked down] is because under clear republican control Blacks received more guaranteed rights. I will never consider a hand out a good thing. Get out of my way and don't hinder me, that's all I ask, don't give me jack ****.

[shakaama]

see how disrespectful fox news is, he keeps calling a PHD Boyce... wtf. How unprofessional can you get? I would have taken my mic off and left on the first BOYCE.

[tarsia13]

That's probably because "DR. Watkins" wants to be called by his first name because he wasnts to keep his "average joe" image as "the peoples' scholar".

[shakaama]

no accounting for class.

Yeah i'm a snob. sorry.

[Caribkele]

Just a question who the F*** is this Ben Ferguson anyway. i am not American but looking at this boy makes me not have a good impression of Americans and I went to school in the US, so I know they are some exceedingly bright people there. Why are they never on TV?? Your news networks especially fox news are not giving the International community a good impression of the US. People like Bill O'Reilly personify what the world dislikes about Americans. Get them off the air!!!!

[awhitenton]

Ben Ferguson is YOUR DADDY! Say papa

[mc00k16]

correction. ben ferguson is an idiot

[punchdrunkatheist]

I AM an American, and you're 100% right and I have no idea who the shit that Ben guy is, he's just another one of those puppet idiots they send to romp and run around on the air to keep the rest of the idiots entertained, it's sad really.

[cthulufunk]

Ben Ferguson, he's been in talk radio since 13, and his reasoning and debating abilities haven't evolved since! He can never STFU while the other person is talking. He's like if Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly had a little turd baby.

[witeboy19]

Ben Ferguson is a dork.

[beegold07]

This fatty Ferguson is an ugly loser. He has a two-digit IQ and tries to hide the tiny size of his brain by using his terrible hair.

[bhavin313]

This Ben Ferguson is a complete idiot. If the next generation of the USA is same as him then only ONLY GOD CAN BLESS AMERICA.

I'll be crude... this kid did not even have his ballz drop
