Fox Pundit Cal Thomas Says African American Women are "Angry"

[my2sense]

Did anyone else see the clip Dan Abrams played of a Fox pundit characterizing African American women such as Maxine Waters, Cynthia McKinney and local black female broadcasters as "angry". I believe he was speeking of Michelle Obama as well, but I only caught the end. I believe his name is Cal Thomas of Fox News. Not sure, can't find a transcript or video of the encounter.

Please help me find the clip of the video.

[skooooo]

1. So what if they are?

Maybe they have a reason.

[my2sense]

8. I'm trying to find a link to the video

So I can review what he was saying. It looks like another Fox screw-up....any help to find it would be appreciated.

28. Dan Abrams played it on his show.

2. if they weren't angry I'd thinks something was wrong with them n/t

[anonymous171]

23. Agreed. The whole country should be furious right now.

[dhill926]

3. wonder if that dickwad has ever even....

talked to an African American woman.....

[Ichingcarpenter]

4. You like watching Nuts on Faux TV?

Cal Thomas?....... and you worry what he says?

[TooRaLoo]

7. no...

Dan Abrams played the clip on HIS show.

[my2sense]

10. Just trying to expose it.....that's all

[Ichingcarpenter]

13. Well, why don't you do a google search first

and give your readers a reason to doubt his shit?

Otherwise you might be worried what David Duke says on Faux news.

5. Cal Thomas needs a good ass whoopin'!

I'm sure we can line some folks up to get that done......Black women included (think Airplane, the movie). LOL!

[my2sense]

12. I'll volunteer to hold him......

:silly:

[my2sense]

14. Trying to find the video

or transcript to add it to the Michelle Obama Watch blog.

[FrenchieCat]

17. Good idea!

[Ichingcarpenter]

21. Great Idea .... I await seeing it on the site. n/t

[Botany]

6. Nobody knows Black Women like Cal

WTF would anybody give crap one what that old fart says?

[skooooo]

16. ..lol.....

The ultimate insider!

[Forkboy]

24. LOL...whenever I have a question about African Americans, he's who I turn too.

:)

[TahitiNut]

31. You don't suppose he's talking about Michelle Malkin, do you?

Nawww. :eyes:

11. Ya' don't get much stupider than Cal Thomas.

Not surprised to see he's working for Fox.

[blogslut]

15. In the reconfigured words of Mario Cantone

"Fuck Him!!!"

[AnnieBW]

18. Cal Thomas - Local DC Wingnut Commentator

Total a**hole. Are black women angry? Hell yeah! So are white women! And Asian women! And Latinas and Native American women! You're taking our rights away, dammit!

[my2sense]

19. Exactly!!....Why did this fool

decide to single out black women? That seems to get lost on some folks. Hell everyone one man, woman and child in this country should be angry.

[genna]

20. The best advice Cal Thomas and other Republican leaning people can take is to stop digging the hole

Every time someone puts a microphone in their face, they make broad generalizations about people they obviously don't know anything about.

If John McCain doesn't represent all white men regardless of age and disposition, why should Michelle Obama represent all black women, angry or otherwise?


Their bias and lack of interaction is showing.


How much crap do they think we, angry black women, plan to take off Fox?

[Barack_America]

22. They are now.

What an asinine thing to say.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

25. Yes, Cal, African-American women have no reason whatsoever

to be angry. :sarcasm:

[muntrv]

26. If so, it's because of jackoffs like Cal Thomas.

[Tatiana]

27. Oh how cute. We're back to the "angry black woman" meme!

Guess I better pull out "Waiting to Exhale." Or better yet, watch "Diary of a Mad Black Woman."

:eyes:

[AspenRose]

42. Let's go get all 'Madea' on his ass!

He wants "angry?" I can give him "angry." :rofl:

[Tatiana]

43. They don't know what "angry" is. As my grannie would say, these folks need to

"sat down."

[NatBurner]

46. my granny would send him out to pick a switch

[madrchsod]

29. cal is very old

only people that are his age care about what he writes or says.

[Overseas]

30. So are pasty white guys -- where's that GRRR photo of John SIdney McCain III ?

[FloridaJudy]

32. Cal Thomas is a Smug Reactionary

Of the worst kind. He's been writing right wing screeds on the editorial pages for years.

But even a wingnut like him gets it right once in a while. I'll bet African American women are angry: I'd question their sanity if they weren't!

[NOLALady]

33. Harriet Christian, Gerri Ferraro, Michele Malkin

Ann Coulter are black? Who knew?

If you're not angry, you're not paying attention.

[GoldieAZ49]

34. how sad to go through life angry over

things you cannot change, I work with a woman like that...no one wants to be around her.

what a waste.

[liberaltrucker]

35. Earth to old white dude: YA THINK!

Sheesh!

:puke:

[damntexdem]

36. With so many Faux News pundits yammering away, ...

all women, including African American women -- for that matter, all people, male and female, SHOULD be angry.

[scarface2004]

38. old pasty bald white guy...

should know what its like for sure...what an asshole!

[JI7]

39. is he still around ?

[AlCzervik]

40. another magic thread, the more responses it has the shorter it is.

[theboss]

41. Cal Thomas is just an asshole in the purest sense

I find nothing redeemable, likable, or interesting about him.

[my2sense]

44. Here is the link to the Huffington Post story with a video

[Medusa]

45. The truth is

we're all angry. At right-wing asshats like *, and the likes of the Fox News pundits!

[uponit7771]

47. WHY AREN'T WOMEN SCREAMING ABOUT THIS!! IT'S SEXIST AND RACIST!

It's a stupid stereotype and they guy should be fired no doubt!!

[LowerManhattanite]

49. Because it's about Black women, and in the eyes of the so-called...

...feminist movement, Black women don't count and NEVER HAVE COUNTED.

Simple as that.

[Occam Bandage]

48. Keep up the misogyny, guys. That'll really help McCain.
