Bolling pulled the phrase "chugging 40s" out of thin air to describe a black man drinking a beer, despite the fact that he was neither drinking a 40 nor chugging anything.

Explain that, or concede that it was a racist comment attempting to link the president to negative racial stereotypes. Those are your only two choices.

Really. How about a third. It was a bad choice in phrasing. He was trying to use a derogatory term and he used one with racial undertones.

And you are trying to make this an attempt to slam Obama. How would that work. Are you telling me their are a large group of racists in America that dont know Obama is black.

LOL. So your third option is that Bolling was just innocently attacking the president, but inadvertently used a racially-charged line of attack.

You expect that to be plausible to anyone? You don't even believe it, because you then claim I'm the one "trying to make this an attempt to slam Obama."

Explain why Bolling pulled that phrase out of thin air, or admit it was racist.

Can you admit that something can be racial without being racist?

You are implying that this is an attempt by Bolling to use code words to make a racial statement. I am asking you why? The fact that he is black is established, why the coy facade?

And I expect everyone to believe that it was a poor choice of phrases to mock Obama. It make sense.

Of course something can be racial without being racist. This is not one of those things.

You think coded racist language gets used to disguise the race of the target? You can't be that stupid. No one is that stupid. Bolling was trying to advance his career at Fox by winking and nodding to the racists in their audience by saying, "Oh, yeah, he's one of them. You know what they're like, getting wasted on Midnight Dragon instead of doing their jobs. They're all the same, and Obama's no different."

And no, it defies plausibility that Bolling meant to "mock" Obama, but inadvertently used a dog whistle to do it.

Dog Whistle!

For any of you that are not familar with this term let me explain it. The left invented the idea that the Right gets much of its support from people who are racists, homophobes, anti-communists and Christians and they need to send them seceret messages.

A dog whistle is a whistle that only a dog can hear. If you blow it their is a sound that humans cannot hear but dogs can. In political contect a dog whistle is a phrase that a speical group understands but the rest of the world might not.

This allows the left to keep blacks and gays scared about the Right without having to address actual issues or policies.

This fails in this case for 2 reasons....

1 A dog whistle works to take support away from a person. If you used a dog whitle term to imply a guy is gay he might lose support. In this case to say that FOX news is letting people know Obama is black is stupid.

2 The whole principal is based on the left wing idea that America is a racist nation. In reality there are very few racists in America. Groups like the KKK are almost a memory, blacks occupy top spots in every industry, blacks are at the top of entertainment and sports all across the nation. We have a black "Dancing with the stars" champion, and that required people voting.We have black governors, senators and a black president.

This boils down to Anton is furious that someone made fun of his guy and that we are not all calling for his fireing. As a person who sees the good in people and refuses to destroy people over a slip of the lip I am a threat to Anton's way of life. This is the most Anton has talked about any one issue ever, and this is what he considers the greatest threat to our nation....Fox News!

Anyone who gives a damn about this conversation already knows what the term 'dog whistle' means, and doesn't need your craptacular and inaccurate attempt to spin the definition of it.

This is also another attempt to shift the conversation, and run away from a topic on which your *** has been completely and thoroughly kicked.

Also, when did I call for Bolling's firing? More lies from the liar.

If I wanted a topic that would make you look more crazy and out of touch I couldnt have wished this one up with a genie in a bottle

I might have had some pity on you and let you run away like you usually do, but no one calls me a racist and gets away with it!

"no one calls me a racist and gets away with it!"




I'm sure we're all shaking in our boots...in the sense of convulsing with laughter.

Spoken like a true racist. "You people aren't real Americans! You don't understand this country!"

To borrow a page from your book....

Not everyone, just you!

You ignore it every time I say it. Why do you think you deserve any more consideration than you give me?

Obama is an anti-semite, the racist pig.
