Sorry... I thought you were describing CNN's James Carville?

As for the bribes from white supremacists, I'm rather surprised it hasn't come up myself.
Abraham Lincoln was a Republican... Abraham Lincoln ended slavery... Republicans ended slavery... hmm...

Ignore, duplicate post and for some reason I don't have deletion privileges on my own posts anymore.

For the first, you're right, and I hardly condone his attitude when he acts like that. But he's a far cry from Bill o' Reilly nine times out of ten.

But for the second, where did I state (or even imply) that accepting bribes from white supremacists had anything to do with being Republican? No need to get defensive about something I didn't even say.

I think if Carville had his own show he'd be just as bad as O'Reilly. But that being said, they're both awful.

I was just being an ass, sorry. But the whole white supremacist stigma that often goes along with Republicans irritates me so.

I was pretty sure he was just referring to Ron Paul, who is by all association a shameless white supremacist. Michael Medved has called him out on this MULTIPLE times on his national radio show (6th in the nation overall) and Paul has never explained the donations or refused them. Its a definite problem that hasn.t been picked up on by major media for some odd reason.

Personally, I think media types protect Paul because he's a weird, fidgety, little man who makes wild claims and talks like a 1939 nazi sympathizing isolationist. Crazy is always good for ratings.

This is what I'm talking about when it comes to Ron Paul

Yeah, he's pretty much a scumbag.
