DomYngBlk -> Is this Racist speak? (8/13/2010 9:31:27 AM)
Certainly is entertaining. And she is supposed to be some sort of "Counselor" of some sort which she obviously isn't since her education came in Physiology not Psychology http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laura_Schlessinger But I find it interesting that the diatribe even made it on air sins=ce the on air producer obviously has a mute button when they need to use it. So the rant, to me, was very intentional. Is it political? Why is this jewish woman still on air? http://mediamatters.org/blog/201008120045

DYB, it depends, if you find it necessary to point out to anyone who has passed puberty that she is either jewish or is married to a jew, then I suppose that I would need to point out that you are black, and it is central to the question. I hope I need not do that.

DomYngBlk -> RE: Is this Racist speak? (8/13/2010 9:38:16 AM)
Why is it necessarily true that people know she is jewish? You can point out that I am black till the world ends cause guess what. I am black! But if Tom Joyner or Tavis Smiley got on radio and started using jewish slurs......How long do you suppose either would be on the air waves? And, don't you think this was intentional on her part to put this in her program?

Dr Laura is a conservative nasty intolerant cunt, this is well known edited to add, her use of the N word.... if someone used the "K" word the same way I bet she would be all over that, as would the ADL

As a simple way of asking the question if it was another talk show host.....would they still be on the air?

I supposed them as being black and real in the above to mnotter......

Lordandmaster -> RE: Is this Racist speak? (8/13/2010 10:12:54 AM)
Her father was Jewish and her mother Catholic. As an adult, she experimented with Judaism for a while and then announced that she doesn't believe in it. (Actually, she's been all over the map with her religious life.) So I really think you're barking up the wrong tree. But is she a nasty twat who contributes nothing to our society? Yes, I'd agree with you there.

mnottertail -> RE: Is this Racist speak? (8/13/2010 10:17:49 AM)
DYB, I didnt check the link, she is a slimy cunt, and I care to hear nothing out of her mouth, which is why I didn't look and didn't know what she was saying, so I withdraw my initial objections and apologize to no end. I now understand. Ron

StrangerThan -> RE: Is this Racist speak? (8/13/2010 10:28:45 AM)
ditto with the nasty cunt sentiment. Haven't listened to her much, but the times I have, she doesn't come across as any different with this caller than any other. She is curt, elitist, and rude. As for the n-n-n utterances, she attributed them to others wherein her comments have some truth to them. Racist speak? Not really. Rude, nasty, evil bitch? Yeah.

DomYngBlk -> RE: Is this Racist speak? (8/13/2010 10:29:40 AM)
Just might be me.......But isn't this all going a little haywire at the moment? All of the congressional black caucus members under investigation, this cunt, the sherrod case......or am I turning into PA.

In the context in which she used it, CALLER: How about the N-word? So, the N-word's been thrown around -- SCHLESSINGER: Black guys use it all the time. Turn on HBO, listen to a black comic, and all you hear is nigger, nigger, nigger. No. Could she be racist. I suppose as easily as the rest of us, if we are honest with ourselves. chia* (the pet)

Is the congressional black caucus a rascist group ?

""well I heard Chris Rock say it and i am only quoting him so it is okay!"... and she said it over and over and over again because she was getting off on offending that caller.... this is because she is a cunt, a racist cunt? Probably, she seemed to enjoy the way saying it felt.

NeedToUseYou -> RE: Is this Racist speak? (8/13/2010 10:45:03 AM)
I don't know how you can discuss racism, without discussing, the usage of words in society and popular culture. Do, I think she is racist, I don't know, I don't think that conversation proves or disproves anything. You can't expect an adult, to go around saying N-word, when referencing someone else saying it. No other word on the planet is treated as such. Now, if she called the lady a nigger, then I'd agree, but when referencing any other racist terminology no one says W-word, when referring to someone saying Wetback, or whatever racist terminology. Personally, I think black people that use the word, do themselves a dis service, and I wouldn't be around a Jewish person that went around calling themselves kikes, I wouldn't hang out around a white people that referred to each other as white trash as habit. But I would say the literal word if talking about the word they used, as in did you see those crazy white guys calling themselves white trash or as Schlessinger did when saying black comedians on HBO say nigger all the time. But I would not get offended, nor care if a black guy said, "Those white comedians always call each other white trash". Now, if you are talking about when the caller said her husbands friends say stuff like "Do black people really like doing that" Well, that's not racist either. Racism is a belief in the superiority of one race over another, it's not asking a naive or stupid question. Now, one could infer "prejudice" which is decidely different than racism. As prejudice is prejudging another based on some quality and assuming most if not all share that attribute as default. Prejudice maybe, racism, I don't see any evidence. Though the trend at present seems to lump racism, in the same basket as prejudice, which is unfortunate, as prejudice is generally easy to overcome, and all have prejudice. The difference between racism and prejudice is racism is treated as a hard core fact, whereas prejudice is not so tightly grasped. My guess, is that the woman lives in an area of low concentration of black people, so she would be assumed to be the interpreter for the black culture. Now doing that is wrong, but it isn't racist.
