Her husband is a piece of shite, always playing the race card. He was the one spearheading the federal case to put those new housing projects in Chalmette.

I think it's racist to say that white men can't be hard workers.

I doubt the 0.1 market share's worth of viewers this network gets will be affected by her comments.
Such a flaming network to get reactions by people, and they're getting them.

Suggesting that it is racist by implying that it may be offensive to blacks is actually racist.

Who is we? Maybe she means like libs since I've heard the left refer to people without health insurance as leeches. But I don't hear very many people say the working poor are sucking off the system. That type of criticism is leveled at people who don't work at all and simply game the system.

If they didn't say stupid shite it wouldn't be a stupid show now would it? It's TV news lol. Same crap on FOX. The US would be so much better off without cable news of any type (with the exception of I guess Bloomberg, CSPAN, etc).

There are people on the PT board who believe self reliance is racist. They deserve to be ridiculed
