http://www.alternet.org/tea-party-and-right/6-right-wing-disasters-week-bill-oreilly-drops-accidental-truth-bomb1. Bill OReilly: Republicans are afraid of black people.
Bill OReilly chatted with radio host Tavis Smiley on Thursday, about how black people are to blame for their economic problems, blah blah blah same old, same old. But Papa Bill also said something simultaneously bizarre and true. He told Smiley that Republicans are more intimidated than uncaring. I think theyre afraid I think theyre afraid of, uh, black people, yeah.
2. Fox Newsian wants to add his voice to street harassers caught on viral video: Damn, baby. You look hot!
Fox News roundtable on the street harassment video that went viral this week was just as enlightened as you might expect it to be. For those who need a reminder, a video made by the anti-street harassment group Hollaback documented a womans walk around New York for ten hours, during which she was subjected to more than 100 catcalls, being told to smile, comments about how good she looked, criticisms about being unfriendly, and having one man follow her silently for five minutes.
3. Rush Limbaugh: A scary black man is threatening our women.
Of course, schmuck jock Rush Limbaugh added his sickening voice to the street harassment discussion by blaming feminism for the whole thing, because what cant be blamed on feminism?
4. Chris Christie: Tries to distract everyone from Bridgegate by being an absolute d#ck about everything else.
Chris Christie really wants everyone to shut the f*ck up about how he and his top aides ordered a massive traffic jam on the George Washington Bridge for petty political reasons.

(14,177 posts)2. They sure look like disasters to me.
But, it is becoming clear that to a certain other group that gets offended when you call them on their racism, that these people are speaking the truth, and that is what is truly disgusting.
