However the it wasn't his comments on abortion that sparked the outrage - but his linking of criminality to "blacks". He's now claiming that the remarks were in the context of a hypothetical arguement that has been taken out of context by others... but the fact remains he linked crime and "blacks" - not crime and poverty angle as he alluded to on FOX (of course Bennett being a commentator on FOX might mean he gets a easier pass from them).
Bennett had it right. His mistake wasn't the message it was the fact that the messenger is white.
