Tidbits - 11/19/04

Here are some interesting items.

+A Madison, Wisconsin, radio host calls Condoleeze Rice and "Aunt Jamima." John "Sly" Sylvester said he was referring to the subservient role that black have in the Bush Administration. Sylvester has also referred to Colin Powell as an "Uncle Tome." A term used to describe blacks as fawning over whites. Sylvester is white also said that he was using terms that singer Harry Belafonte used to describe how any African-American would be able to gain access to power.

Totally unacceptable.

+Shortly before the election former anchor, Walter Cronkite, told the American people that Karl Rove somehow convinced Osama Bin Laden to produce the tape released before the election to scare voters. At that time, we said that Walter was a bit over the edge and should no longer speak publicly.

Well, Walter now has a companion in is inappropriate tirade against the Bush Administration. Cuban leader Fidel Castro agrees with Cronkite. Only Fidel says that it was George Bush who convinced bin Laden to make the tape.
