C-Span caller: "Black people created the mortgage problem"
Day in and day out, C-Span callers demonstrate the rank racism that's still endemic in this country.

6. I think it is great that they are on the air
Let their ignorance shine and let the rest of America see what we are up against.

4. That's WAY beyond ignorant
Ignorant assumes that one doesn't know the facts. WILLFULLY denying them to keep your warped little worldview is insulting ignorant.

3. I heard that racist son of a bitch - I wish I could have been teletransported through the airwaves

Because at that very moment I would have been pleased to beat some civility into that asshole if I could have got my hands on him.

9. A lot of people believe this sh**! My neighbor told me the exact same thing yesterday and that it
is the democrats fault for telling Fannie and Freddie to give more loans to black people so they can buy houses.

10. Black people didn't cause this, these guys did

Richard Fuld, CEO of Lehman Bros.


John Thain, CEO of Merrill Lynch


Lloyd Blankfein, CEO of Goldman Sachs


Blaming black people for the financial crash/last month's hurricanes/the lack of rainfall/economic recession/crop failure is freeper reflex. Willful ignorance and envy by freepers and others like them lets these guys get away with it. Freepers and their ilk want to be like these guys--have more money than they could count.

12. I think it's good that this evil shit comes out.
More good people must realize where they really live, and who their neighbors really are.
This is always under the surface,and it is better for everyone to see it close up.
These are Bush's people.

A moron with a moronic point of view.
