Just another pathetic white man looking for some attention, and now look what happened, he got embarrassed on national television. Krakkers man!

Banfield is just a whore now. She never took any of this seriously and just used it as an opportunity for her and her idiot sidekick martin to make some PC ambush BS television to make unthinking assholes feal better about themselves.

Just about everything Grothman says is correct. Kwanza is stupid, celebrated by an insignificant minority, and doesn't bare enough social signifigance to be in schools.

"Columbus was not a violent person" ........

Yeah....and the guys who wrote the bible wrote laws on how to marry off your daughter to the dude that raped her. The guy who wrote the koran married a 9 year old. What is your point? It seems it now matters who is carrying the tradition on and not so much the people who wrote the holy book.

It's more of a real holiday than Valentine's day.. what a waste of money that one is (for cards).

Well first I didn't say Thanksgiving was "invented" to divide Europeans and native Americans I said that is what it does, to the best of my understanding. I will qualify, because unlike your beloved Senator Grothman, I'm not going to project my feelings on others. I said Grotham is an idiot in the context of this video, I know nothing of him personally. As you must since you are so quick to defend him. I don't have a master's degree in "everything" so I won't give you my thesis just yet. Thanks

Senator Grothman is a fool and a racist. Kwanzaa is not anti- Christmas. Man I swear..good ol ignorance.

Thanksgiving was invented to divide Europeans and Native Americans? LMFAO You so funny. You think Grothman is an idiot? w0w... Let's here your thesis on Everything, buddy. What makes you the expert on anything? Bless us with your infinite wisdom, ET.

Well, I think they "tried" to ignore it, but deep inside they know the truth. That's why they both interrupted, talked over, and did everything possible from allowing the Senator from making his point.  But in the end I think the Senator made an excellent case against that shit holiday.
