Ari Fleischer calls out Cornell Belcher with a smile.
BELCHER: “What Herman Cain said was a racist, bigoted statement and should be treated like a racist and bigoted person who makes racist and bigoted statements.”
FELSIECHER: “Questioning people’s motives who are trying to help is ionly going to divide people. And I think there’s too great a sensitivity about people who just say Republicans are evil, Republicans are racist, Republicans are wrong. That’s hurtful and that’s just as wrong.
BELCHER: ”Well, you know, I, I , I, agree with my friend Ari, I wish I had the confidence, by the way, I never called Herman Cain a racist
[CROSSTALK]
FLEISCHER: “You sure did, you sure did.”
BELCHER: “No, I said his language was bigoted, I never called him actually a racist, but I understand the difference between racism and bigotry.”
Uh, yes, you did, Belcher. Verbatim.

I guess no one cares about Herman Cain any more.
Hey Cornell, would you like some ketchup with your foot? Might make it taste better.
Of course, considering where his head is obviously residing, he may prefer some Vaseline to ease the transition when he needs to come out for air…
This guy is in the position he is in today because throughout the 60's…
He screamed racism every time someone looked at him wrong.
He was promoted to the next grade just to get his ignorant a z z off the teacher's back.
He is as ignorant (and racist) now as he was in 3rd grade.
Belcher would call the iceberg that the Titanic ran into a racist because it was white.
There is big money to be made in continuing and inflating the appearance of racism.
Though the charge of racism is losing its meaning and its sting because of overuse.
How sick the Democrat party is. And I rather doubt that recovery from that sickness is possible. They have come to almost totally depend on playing the race card. If they give that up what will they have? At some point, there will be enough people who will realize that the Democrats offer a very limited life unless you are willing to be as big a crook as they are.
If you don't treat race the way Dems do, you are a racist. Doesn't matter the color of the person. I'm pretty tired of it being the trump card to shut down speech. And to hear them, they want the power to throw racists in jail. ???!!!!
How convenient.
Maybe we need to start applying some sort of label and make it as shocking as the term "racist". How about "freeloading thief " ?
I thought these guys already damaged Cain enough? The sad thing about Cain is that he was one of the few Republican candidates that had ideas that actually made sense.
Traitors to the Constitution of the United States of America.
he has a pull string in his back.
Pull it and it spits out several phrases.
'Racist'! Pull again and it utters 'Sexist'!. One more tug and it says the biggie: 'Right wing, racist, sexist, homophobe'
Then the final statement: 'I need a government grant'.
Ah, empty headed liberalism on display for all to see. 'Tis a sight to behold…
The whole liberal philosophy summed up in five pulls of the string, D, very well put!
I say five 'cause you forgot one. Pull the string once more and they say, "It's for the children, you racist!"
Yeah, they're kinda' repetitive.
It was jewish too. Goldberg, iceberg….they're all the same. /sarc
gee, you know. you're right.
The most FAMOUS liberal assertion of all time.
'It's for the children'. Dear old dad told us to hold onto our wallets and run whenever it was uttered…
I think Mr. Cain was the BEST choice for the republican party to run for the top office. He is smart, educated, and a businessman who made his mark in public as well as private life. He was smeared almost instantly. It proved to me the left was very scared, indeed. He left, in my opinion, because he wasn't willing to pay the great price that was going to be extracted upon his family by running. I cannot blame him for that.
The best men do not run for the big office.
That he did so at all is to his great credit.
A great american. I am a white boy, so don't use any racism tag on me. I want the best man for the job. We won't have that again this time.
Racers.
I say "parasites" because it's always the case. The time you find one of these left-wing bastards, rich or poor, who isn't on the take in some way, it will be the first.
WOWOWOW ! I'm sick of hearing about "teachable moments" and "racism". Cornell, can I say that without being labeled a racist, YOU GOT TAGGED.
In the past, if liberals say something stupid they can go to sleep and the world begins the next day after their idiotic ramblings, not to be quoted because of some libturd "rule".
New libturd standard is that you can't quote ANYTHING they said in the last 30 seconds.
Also. if I say his name (Cornell Belcher) I'm a "racist". If I mention his middle name, I should be placed on the DHS terrorist list.
His family must be proud ? He's only a "Belcher" after he sucks Obummer's rectum !
His hair is racist. He's kinda stupid. Not because he's Black, but because he cannot think.
Any time someone says "teachable moment" I want to slap them.
New libturd standard is that you can't quote ANYTHING they said in the last 30 seconds.
Hahahahaha. LOVE it. Very true.
What will they call us if we mention his ridiculous hair-do?
LOL, D! This just popped up! http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2012/01/disgustin...
I've noticed that so many of these nerdy younger liberals have the exact same mannerisms when they get called out about something and start lying to defend themselves.
Study this video carefully and next time you want to see if a liberal is lying, look for the tell-tale signs…
…or just be smart and assume they're lying in the first place…
Another Sociopathic Socialist caught in a lie while at the same time telling you to disbelieve that he is lying.
Sounds just like Obama to me, or Eric Holder, or Anita Dunn, or what was that truther's name, or …
That was funny.
Yeah, 'teachable moment' is the phrase that tunes my ears off like some school spinster raking her fingers across a blackboard. Nothing smacks of elitism and arrogance more than that one phrase, and I don't care who utters it: left or right. It's as repugnant as 'racism' and 'bigotry.'
I replied to an earlier post about that 'teachable moment' b s. I despise that phrase; I want to hit someone, too.
On the keystone subject….On the 5 today Bolling held up a map showing all existing pipelines in the U.S. ….It was full….full in that area and all over. Pipelines everywhere. What bull from obama admin. use a study already done 50 times.
Oh, I forgot to say….No race card could be played here, he is far blacker than Obama in so many ways. I wish he would reconsider. Trump has…again and again and maybe again.
Geez, if ya said the 80's and 90's I would have thought ya were sayin Sharpton.
Or Jackson.
The Bums.
A truly teachable moment. He is teaching us how to lie.
Don King had a son???????
of course the iceberg was racist……the hull of the Titanic was black!
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Herman Cain's statement was foolish and in line with the way blacks on opposite sides of the political divide normally talk about each other (disrespecting the other side as a tool of the white man).
Among idealogical allies painting the black man who disagrees with you as a tool of the white man tends to earn applause, but outside of those circles it tends to cut off debate real fast, which is a problem because both black conservatives and black Republicans (not necessarily the same thing) are a small minority.
Contrary to what Mr. Cain sometimes seems to believe (he went on about skin color quite a lot), neither his race nor the color of his skin in and of itself would have been a big draw to black voters (more blacks ran for office as Republicans in 2010 than have in many years, but those who won did so despite the black vote, not because of it).
Most blacks are liberal leaning on most issues and vote Democrat. The only way to change that is through engagement, pointing out to people how conservatism can serve the interests of the black community (a point Bill Cosby, a Democrat, has been better about making that most self proclaimed black conservatives) and how some of the other interest groups the Democrats are tied to (nods towards teacher's unions) cause the Democrats to adopt positions which don't serve the interests of blacks.
it is a THIN playbook that they use.
But as long as they get a 'pass' from the corrupt media they will continue. Fortunately, many citizens have awakened and see this for the con game it is…
Of course he understands the difference between racism and bigotry…because he's both.
The irony of the situation is that while almost everyone wants a candidate who's a "regular guy", or "an honest human being who simply has experience", unless he can survive the onslaught of the vetting process, they never make it. While many in America, and the media want somebody who isn't an establishment parrot, a puppet, or a complete baffoon, it's the complete opposite when it comes to the actual election process.
In Herman's case, even a number of liberal media stations admitted he was probably the most effective candidate because was that honest businessman, he wasn't a career puppet politician, etc. But they didn't like him because he wasn't a democrat and thus lambasted him over "sex scandals" that had little to no evidence, and happened to have already been taken care of 20+ years ago. Rather than going after the guy's record and his ideas, they went straight for the emotional response of the electorate. It's a classic tactic to delegitimizing your opponent.
The NAACP just did an interview at some CBS Station denouncing fact that GPS provides an APP that warns drivers away from "Ghetto Areas that are UNSAFE". Calling it Racist, and saying it would keep Tourists away from areas where Black people live, hurting their businesses, etc. The article is available from Drudge Report. Commenters to a person were absolutely outraged at that woman's remarks and there are hundreds of comments to the article.
Jackson, Sharpton, the CBC, NAACP and other reps for the "Black Community" should step up NOW and admit that an APP for peoples cell phones, GPS systems have become NECESSARY for the safety of lost travellers, and other people that would become subject to Car Jackings, Shootings, Robberies, etc. because those very "communities" are NOT SAFE for White people…and they should call in Bill Cosby to explain to them exactly what they need to do to CLEAN UP their Communities all over this once great Nation. She was outraged that MLK Ave. in all cities should be available to all people…that was really her beef…saying "I cannot imagine not being allowed to drive on MLK Blvd."
When the Black Race Baiters are making piles of money to represent their "community" they should be doing so to HELP them instead of reinforceing their Entitlement Mentality as they do and as our sorry public schools do. Education used to be the way out of Poverty. NO MORE. When their own Communities do not VALUE Real Education…then CRIME is what they automatically turn to. Trillions of Dollars of TAX MONEY has been poured into the Social Welfare programs and it is now time to admit FAILURE…because the Nation is BANKRUPT….and those programs have only created Generations of Food Stampers and Criminals.
So, tell me DEF…Where are all the accusers today???? Hit job is all that it was. Sad, sordid political theater. And you, perhaps the fool for buying in?
Nah, "freeloading thief" would be way too literal.
LOTS of liberals (both famous and ordinary) are just like this guy. They have become so used to never being challenged by the MSM (or by their insular circle of like-minded friends) that all you have to do is push back a little and they come apart at the seams.
