Russell Simmons, Hip-Hop Pioneer Was Just On Neil Cavuto's "Your World"
Fox News ^

Posted on 12/17/2003 1:49:56 PM PST by Recovering_Democrat

Anyone see this guy? What an ass. He think the viewpoint that Saddam's capture was a victory is "dangerous". He thinks the President rules by fear and anger and not "love". He's given money to every candidate in the 'rat race except Lieberman. Sharpton and Kucinich are great guys. He'll break his neck helping Howard Dean if Dean is the candidate. He's vowed to register millions of voters to defeat Bush.

I'm not suprised he doesn't want to give money to Lieberman. First, he chastized the first black president over the Lewinsky affair. Two, he has been a supporter of the war. Three, he's a jew.

If his main contribution to the enrichment of Western culture is 'hip hop', then his esteemed opinion is worth two cents less than the fish squeezin's in the bottom of my aquarium.

Cavuto must've owed somebody a favor.

Just damn.

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

I saw it...he was disgusting.

But there is better news. Donovan Chapman was on with Asman this afternoon singing his new song "There Is No War." I was shedding tears bigtime while listening to his wonderful voice singing this glorious song.

Here's a link to his website where there is a link to the lyrics. I'm putting this on my Santa Wish List.

Self-fulfilling prophecy? Let's hope he can't find those million voters.

Did he talk again about how the media is racist for pointing out that he and his wife have "a 49,000-square-foot, 20-bathroom mansion in Saddle River, N.J., a 25-carat diamond ring, a fleet of luxury cars, five maids, four assistants, two live-in nannies, a chef and two drivers." Oh yeah -- and don't forget all the money that the Simmons have spent on ads demanding "Reparations Now"!

As far as I'm concerned, this guy has contributed to the stupidity of kids in the cities across America so that he can have his Cristal. F him.

I have a policy of NOT taking political advice from grown men who wear a ball cap INDOORS on television.

That guy is such a jag-off. His promotion of the "hip-hop" culture has done more harm to the black community than anything whitey ever could have dreamed of.

Then to add insult to injury, this guy has the nerve to have a chip on his shoulder like he is some kind of civil rights hero.

"What was Cavuto's response to him?

Cavuto offered little to counter the bs Simmons was spewing. This guy has set up a business of offering a "visa credit card" to the 46 million americans without bank accounts. This is the welfare audience. And Cavuto allowed this guy to present his "company" as if it were an above board proposal. Cavuto was totally unprepared and Simmons rolled with the bs. This is simply his scam to get control of the welfare funds BEFORE they reach the end user.

The Bush bashing was typical and laden with false statements, just dem talking points. Again, Cavuto laid down for him.

Hip-hop pioneer

I have more respect for the man who invented the two-hole outhouse. What the he!! is "pioneering" about jungle rhythm and bad poetry?
