Mike Papantonio talks with blogger and author Chauncey DeVega about how the Tea Party GOP is attempting to court African Americans by using their “my friend is black” strategy with Herman Cain.

Uncle Ruckus Herman Cain — On The War-Path Defending Republican Racism & Bigotry

Herman Cain Insults The Intelligence of Black People:

On Sunday, Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain said that he doesn’t believe racism holds African Americans back:

“I don’t believe racism in this country today holds anybody back in a big way,” said Cain, former CEO of Godfather’s Pizza, during an interview on CNN. “Are there some elements of racism? Yes, it gets back to if we don’t grow this economy, that is a ripple effect for every economic level, and because blacks are more disproportionately unemployed, they get hit the worst when economic policies don’t work. That’s where it starts.”

….and UNCLE Cain is feeling like a prophet:

“I felt like Moses when God said I want you to go into Egypt and lead my people out,” he said. “God has been in this since the beginning…there are certain things that happen along this journey that they couldn’t happen unless God was in it.”

John Donald Imus, Jr. Has a Long Record of Incendiary Remarks.

The latest:

On Monday, WABC anchor Warner Wolf read a report about footballer Adam “Packman” Jones dropping his nickname, “Pacman.” Wolf also mentioned that Jones had been arrested six times since he was drafted in 2005.

Imus then asked, “What color is he?”

“He’s African-American,” Wolf said.

“Well, there you go,” Imus said. “Now we know.”

Imus said through a spokesperson that he was misunderstood.

“I meant that he was being picked on because he’s black,” Imus said.

“I find the inference of [Imus'] remark disturbing because it plays into stereotypes,” said the Rev. Al Sharpton of the National Action Network, which was part of protests that led to Imus’ firing last year.

“I’m truly upset about the comments,” Jones said. “Obviously Mr. Imus has problems with African-Americans. I’m upset, and I hope the station he works for handles it accordingly. I will pray for him.”

Imus was fired last year for making racial comments about the Rutgers women’s basketball team.

Imus called the Rutgers University women’s basketball team “nappy-headed hos,” and for good measure the show’s executive producer, Bernard McGuirk, called the team “hard-core hos.” Later, former Imus sports announcer Sid Rosenberg, who was filling in for sportscaster Chris Carlin, said: “The more I look at Rutgers, they look exactly like the [National Basketball Association's] Toronto Raptors.”

Over the years Imus has made numerous racist slurs on TV and Radio — The long string of racial slurs and inflammatory comments is well documented by Media Matters …..[MORE]

He has also been accused of making offensive remarks off the air. Here are some examples:

Don Imus is just but a speck in a huge crop of right wing extremists in America’s media — THUGS hiding behind TV and Radio, screaming and snorting their “Hate Rhetoric” like Hyenas in “extreme sexual heat,” fueling anti-immigrant xenophobia and the baseless hate of “Foreigners” and non-whites in America — Blacks, Latinos, Immigrants…you name it.

Media Matters for America has extensively documented, bigotry and hate speech targeting, among other characteristics, race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, and ethnicity continue to permeate the airwaves through personalities such as Glenn Beck, Neal Boortz, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly, Michael Savage, Michael Smerconish, John Gibson, Lou Dobbs, Sean Hannity, ….[MORE]
