Why hasn't this guy been fired?


Black Republican gets thrown out of Memphis Radio Studio 1180 WPLX (part 2) - YouTube

Unfortunately this is completely normal behavior.

Whoever raised this guy ought to be ashamed.

But, how can this be? A black, public personality that's a racist?!!

No, no we keep being told that it's the Tea Party that's racist. Oh no! this paradigm has a big crack in it.

In our society only conservatives can be racist or sexist.

In some ways, though, it pretty much should be that way. Since almost all charges of racism or sexism are false and politically motivated, I'm just as happy that they don't come from conservatives.

In order for the rare legitimate charge of racism against a liberal to be heard, it would have to be more than just spitting in the wind.

For that to happen, conservatives would have to hurl a thousand false charges in order to match the noise level coming from the left. Which would make the right no better than they are.

Duplicat thread, and some of the most racist posts I've seen have been by members who have the name "liberal" in their screen name.

I looked to see if this was posted and didn't find anything.

He "axed" her over and over so it should be obvious that he would cut her off.

What is the deal with "ax" vs. "Ask"?

Is it like any other accent like a Boston accent or Minnesota accent?

I don't think it is a Southern accent because most people from the South that I hear don't say "ax" when they mean "ask".

It is the sign of a "lazy" mind.

You live in La La Land.

Radio host, while emotional, was accurate. He called out a sell out, which wingnut radio hosts seemingly do everyday.

Didn't hear a racist word from the man, just wingnut angst.

"I don't need to shake your hand, because I'm afraid some whiteness might rub off?" Okay.
