You have to wonder why an Irish-Cuban woman would get so emotionally involved in Black victimhood politics. Must have been picked on as a child.

Picked on as a child. Ripe for the picking for the radicals infesting college campuses.

She’s outed herself now. Any credibility gone.

“You don’t. You just have to be smart/connected/fit the demographic/wealthy enough to get in. I know plenty o’ Harvard grads who have told me this point blank.”

They told you the truth.

Despite Ms. O'Brien's assertion that Critical Race Theory rejects white supremacy, here's what another "esteemed" Harvard professor, Cornel West, wrote in the introduction to Critical Race Theory: Key Writings That Formed the Movement (1995):

“This comprehensive movement in thought and life – created primarily, though not exclusively, by progressive intellectuals of color – compels us to confront critically the most explosive issue in American civilization: the historical centrality and complicity of law in upholding white supremacy…

Also, actor Jay Thomas' pathetic accusations of white racism didn't trouble Joel Pollak; Mr. Pollak's wife is black. She’s from South Africa and her mother was a political appointee of none other than Nelson Mandela.

Some racist.

yep they tied a shotgun to the judges throat and later killed him in the police battle

and Cleaver...who later sorta reformed..wrote Soledad Brother (i think)

with Obama...I think his mom was a radical from a sorta radical family and was a pioneer in very very early black white couplings at a very young age with a married man

or given her plain-ness her options were thus limited

and Obama grew up in a radical charged environment and we know it and the media knew it

and ignored it because they sympathize it

it's tuff to be half black and half white...I will give Soledad and Bro that much...it's just harder than defacto belonging to one race...no matter what platitudes folks spout about it

my daughters are technically half latino-maronite and half southern-saxon-celtic and even they get a bit conflicted just by self image alone...one swarthier, the other more "gringa"

Obama settled down eventually into a black identity

It’s all an act. Did he hang around with blacks? NO, college all pics are with whites. He USED the blacks, but his close friends were white.

This could cost her. She’s extremely annoying anyway. Can’t take more than 1 minute of her patronizing personality. Hope she gets the boot! She can always go over to The View.

The vanity of Liberal TV personalities likely hides a variety of insecurities, some perhaps carried over from childhood. Hence, Liberal.

I seldom write as I did yesterday. For me the more reason to vote in Novemeber despite some less then preferred choices that may have to be made.

This explains why she didn't see a problem with Bell's racist hatred. She's one with it..

We're charmed CNN - maybe this kind of stuff is why few citizens trust CNN...

O’Brien is an anti-white bigot.

“Boycott her sponsors!”


Who are her sponsors?

Boycott them? It goes both ways.

Boycott them...I’m in!
