First thing I noticed, too. Conservatives are scared. They should be. Liberals should also be scared. Most people are too stupid to realize that all the time we spend arguing with each other about who's right is time that the government spends cementing its hold on stupid American people. When the skies are filled with drones, facebook.com becomes facebook.gov, and you can't piss without it ending up in a computer somewhere, maybe everyone will realize how stupid they've been. Or maybe they'll just roll over and open wide.
Yessir!! While everyone is busy flinging poo at one another scary things are taking place under our noses. Too many zealots and ideologues in America these days.
Well, I can certainly rest easy knowing that going forward the Breitbart crusade is in such capable hands as those of the political titan JOEL POLLAK.

I don't believe this quote furthers your cause at all, this is a very vanilla quote, and don't believe it is controversial at all. There are FAR more radical quotes out there... And I don't agree with all his positions or tactics, I am not sure how constructive he was either, but that quote is a softball down the middle for Dems.
Open your hearts and minds to Space Traders, Derrick Bell's sci fi slave trader epic. <embed src="http://content.bitsontherun.com/players/wHaZAWYk-dh3Zgtip.swf" width="640" height="480" allowfullscreen="true" />
Ah, so this is the satire that Northside Storm was talking about. Funny how the Breitbart hack seems to think that Bell filmed this piece himself. Another example of this guy not really bothering to do any research is his confusion about why George Clinton would be in a Twilight Zone esque special called Cosmic Slop....

I mean we're talking about stuff that happened in the late 80s and early 90s here. That's like only one generation removed from the 14th amendment.
I have a childhood friend running for state rep who keeps harping on his story. Starting to wonder if I should remind him that voters probably would be interested in his excessive drug use and attempt to steal his mom's hpd firearm to shoot someone who had messed with us one night back when we were in high school.
Open your minds people... Working with Thurgood Marshall, desegregating schools, supporting James Meredith, fighting the white power structure in Mississippi. Man, if this guy is considered a radical psycho, it just shows you how little wingnuts know about history and how far we still have to go (even with a half-white President). One of the things that makes me a Liberal and a Democrat is the absolute insistence of the right wing to either come up with ridiculously simple "solutions" to extremely complex social and economic problems or, as in this case, to radically simplify and embrace an intentional ignorance about our very complicated history to service their current political whims.
Obama has rubbed elbows with some unsavory characters, but so has every other Presidential candidate. They have to do this in order to build coalitions.
