Here’s one of the those stories you’ll read this week that helps explain liberals and how they think; and it also shows us how Hollywood liberals have progressed (they’re all about the “progressive”!).
Harry Belafonte Calls Black Republicans ‘Tyrants’
Celebrity activist Harry Belafonte referred to prominent African-American officials in the Bush administration as “black tyrants” at a weekend march, and he also compared the administration to Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Germany.
Belafonte, a featured speaker at Saturday’s march in Atlanta commemorating the 40th anniversary of the signing of the Voting Rights Act, previously ignited a political controversy in 2002 when he likened then-Secretary of State Colin Powell to a “house slave.”
At Saturday’s civil rights march, Belafonte said the Bush administration has been “rather dismal” for the lives of black Americans. The march, which featured prominent civil rights groups and labor union representatives, was intended to drum up support for extending and strengthening the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
Belafonte used a Hitler analogy when asked about what impact prominent blacks such as former Secretary of State Powell and current Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice had on the Bush administration’s relations with minorities.
“Hitler had a lot of Jews high up in the hierarchy of the Third Reich. Color does not necessarily denote quality, content or value,” Belafonte said in an exclusive interview with Cybercast News Service.
“[If] a black is a tyrant, he is first and foremost a tyrant, then he incidentally is black. Bush is a tyrant and if he gathers around him black tyrants, they all have to be treated as they are being treated,” he added.
When asked specifically who was a “black tyrant” in the Bush administration, Belafonte responded to this reporter, “You.” When this reporter noted that he was a Caucasian and attempted to ask another question, Belafonte abruptly ended the interview by saying, “That’s it.”
[…] Civil rights activist Dick Gregory mocked the existence of African-American conservatives in America.
“They (black conservatives) have a right to exist, but why would I want to walk around with a swastika on my shirt after the way Hitler done messed it (the swastika symbol) up?” Gregory said in an interview with Cybercast News Service. (The swastika was an ancient symbol generally regarded an emblem of strength and luck before the Nazi Party adopted it in 1920.)
“So why would I want to call myself a conservative after the way them white racists thugs have used that word to hide behind? They call themselves new Republicans,” Gregory said.
US ‘most ungodly unspiritual nation’
Gregory trashed the United States, calling it “the most dishonest, ungodly, unspiritual nation that ever existed in the history of the planet. As we talk now, America is 5 percent of the world’s population and consumes 96 percent of the world’s hard drugs,” Gregory said.
Gregory also accused President Bush of stealing the 2004 presidential election.
“They didn’t win, and I got that from the white press. At four o’clock [on Election Day 2004], that evening, the white press said from the exit polls that [Democratic presidential nominee John] Kerry had won by a landslide and then three hours later something funny happened,” Gregory said of Bush’s eventual election victory.
Asked why approximately ten percent of African-Americans typically vote for Republican presidential candidates, Gregory responded, “I have no idea. You have to ask them. That’s like asking me about a woman having a baby. Go ask her, I don’t know.”
Searching for a little background on both these liberals, I found this Dick Gregory quote: “I am really enjoying the new Martin Luther King Jr stamp – just think about all those white bigots, licking the backside of a black man.”
That’s “progressive”! Vote liberal!
