I'm not saying this to be disagreeable, but...I disagree.

All these righteous right types defending the free world from the heinous threat of Harry Belafonte. One would think the point would be obvious Win, even to you... If all you liberals are willing to give Harry a "pass" for making such a blatantly racist statement, then it would be nice if you did the same for the bumbling idiots on the right who do the same thing. Bottom line.. everyone is capable of putting their foot in their mouths from time to time. I've heard more than my share of liberals make outrageiously racist comments and I've admonished them for it (and often lost their friendship as a result).. The true sign of integrity is admitting you screwed up and making sure that you revise your behavior accordingly... So I wouldn't have as much of a problem if Harry would just "be a man" and own up to shooting his mouth of.. But he won't... and liberals out there seem more than willing to run interference for him... Hawk
