This was a radio talk host from the 1990's from Denver, Colorado. He was an associate of fellow talk host Richard Berg, who was shot by white supremacists. One of his favorite phrases was 'cut the pie down the middle' and he always did exactly that. No fudging of data, no thumb on the scale, no laws for thee, but not for me. Always down the middle.

Here he overwhelms a young Chris Rock, and is rewarded w/ boos from the audience.

Typical.

All those black conservatives were all trying to out-wacko each other back then. Call it the zeal of the converted.

"Liberal egg sucking dogs" and blah, blah, blah....his shtick got old fairly quickly.

He moved to the front of the line because conservatives are always so enamored of their darker species.

Guess they're a bit more disenthralled with him now since being a black nutcase isn't an anomaly anymore.

A blast from the past.
Black leftists continue to loathe him years later.
See above for proof

Huh, wow, I'd forgotten about him. I recall he was on one of our local flea-power stations. I do recall there were some seriously deranged people called to vent their hate at him...

We would have to know who he is to loathe him.

Lol...That's also true. Even in conservative circles knowledge of him was pretty esoteric. Outside of Denver, he wouldn't get noticed if he walked down the street naked.

And among blacks, he was and is still unheard of. He got a little shine on Chris Rock and that's the end of that.
