Thanks Bill Bennett!
All right now! Now we have someone with some stones to speek his mind. I am not shocked of Bennett's thoughts...I am suprised (slightly) that he openly verbalized them on air.
I do believe Billy is right on one point...I feel like elevating the crime rate right now with a jagged Brick to the former "Secretary of Education's" skull....multiple times.....like......7,345! Secretary of Education...ain't THAT a lesson!
Here is the question...
Why ask the MF to apologize when the a$$ is already out of the stall...if this is what he thinks?!? Personnally, I rather know it up front.
If he does apologize, he should be locked in a wooden crate with with a wolverine on crack then blowtorched on the stage of the Apollo Theatre...talk about amature night! (NOTE: Apply same process if he doesn't reply, comments taken out of context, misunderstood, et al....just remove the crack and replace with angeldust with a Schlitz Malt Liquor Bull chaser)
How many folks in the South thought Slavery was necessary but "Morally Reprehensible"? Same questions to Dr.'s injecting Syphillis to Negro's @ Tuskeegee in the '30's?
The Citizens of Europe while the Nazi's were warming the ovens in the 40's?
Folks watching Dogs and firehose's training on human's in the 50's and 60's?
F'ing rat bastard...
"Why sugarcoat what I am thinking...I'm just going to say it and let the Liberal Dems, CBC, Jessie Jackson et al do their usual dance. It is what it is!"
Very Truely Yours,
Bill Bennett, re-creator of the Final Solution
Bennett’s remarks on blacks, crime stir outrage
Ex-education secretary seeks to clarify comments on aborting black babies

WASHINGTON - Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid and other Democrats on Thursday demanded that former Education Secretary William Bennett apologize for remarks on his radio program linking the crime rate and the abortion of black babies.
Bennett responded that the comments, made Wednesday on his “Morning in America” show, had been mischaracterized and that his point was that the idea of supporting abortion to reduce crime was “morally reprehensible.”
The author of “The Book of Virtues,” answering a caller’s question, took issue with the hypothesis put forth in a recent book that one reason crime is down is that abortion is up.
“But I do know that it’s true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could, if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down,” Bennett said.
He went on to call that “an impossible, ridiculous and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down. So these far-out, these far-reaching, extensive extrapolations are, I think, tricky.”
On his show Thursday, Bennett, who opposes abortion, said he was “pointing out that abortion should not be opposed for economic reasons any more than racism ... should be supported or opposed for economic reasons. Immoral policies are wrong because they are wrong, not because of an economic calculation.”
Reid, D-Nev., said he was “appalled by Mr. Bennett’s remarks” and called on him “to issue an immediate apology not only to African Americans but to the nation.”
Rep. Raum Emanuel, D-Ill., said in a statement, “At the very time our country yearns for national unity in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, these comments reflect a spirit of hate and division.”
