Rev. Lowery answers the Republican pundits on Countdown

Countdown played the usual idiocy from Rush Limbaugh and posted a snippet of Malkin to highlight their ignorance. The best way we can show our support for Countdown is to tune in and leave the show on for the full hour. (2-8-06)

Lets be careful we don't want to hurt the Bush feelings. He only sent innocent men and women over seas to fight a war for oil.

I love how right-wing nuts love to accuse minorities of being racist. They seem to feel that it somehow absolves them of their own racism and stereotypes of minorities. The old "Well Timmy did it too!" type of excuse that most of us used at some point in our childhood to get out of being chastised for wrongdoing.

we don't need to occupy the world to ensure domestic security at all...we have the strongest military in the world. War contractors have taken over our foreign policy the way pharmaceutical companies have taken over U.S drug policies We spend more on war and imprisonment compared to any other nation in the world and we wonder why we can't get our shit together? ha! .

a war on terror is just as useless as the war on drugs

the CIA informants code name was Curve ball he admitted to being coerced into lying about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. People forget that both parties in congress acted on "Bad information." simply because the G.W.B administration sad the three magic words "we believe they have (weapons of mass destruction).". GWB had a high approval rating at the time and the democrats did not dare say a word to oppose him. Ten years later OSBL gets shot in the head in Pakistan...? wars end.

@A86 That isn't it at all. Pointing out racism is just pointing out racism. You shouldn't let the color of the racist - nor their reasos for being racist - blind you from the fact taht they are indeed racist.

[tobiasrobbins72]

@calalum67 Whites are murdered for simply being white right now. It would make since if he said what he said as a historical anecdote. HE DID NOT. he VERY CLEARLY prayed to God for a FUTURE time when white will embrace right (nothing about anyone else embracing right - nothing about the countless whites who sacrificed for the benefit of blacks). Don't ignore what he said and replace it with what you WISH he had said.

[tobiasrobbins72]

@majestic8519 Bull. you didn't even listen to it. that might be SOME of what he said, but praying for the day when white will finally embrace right is a racial insult - and a very ingnorant stereotype about whites - no matter how you try to spin it.

[tobiasrobbins72]

@anthmi2 That is bullshit. It was insulting, racist and reactionary, NOT progressive. Plain and simple.

[anthmi2]

nothn he mentioned was wrong....he only expressed the whole purpose of Dr. Martin and Coretta King's endeavors. The truth  is just the truth........we have President Barack in office, but nothn still hasn't changed....so until democracy is exercised regardless of whom is in office, then we will experienced a more harmonious society....
