Neil Cavuto Is A Racist Bastard

There really aren't many nice things to say about the on-air personalities at Fox News. It takes no a certain character of person to be able to spew the lies of the right day in and day out. So it wasn't surprising to that Neil Cavuto tried to blame brown people for the fiscal crisis we are currently suffering, despite the overwhelming load of facts that show the blame lies with rich, stuffy and ignorant white people like Neil.

From RawStory:

In an attempt to blame the Democrats in Congress for the current economic meltdown, Cavuto told Rep. Xavier Becerra (D-CA) last week that he should have warned bankers about possible problems with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

"I'm just saying," Cavuto insisted, "I don't remember a clarion call that said, 'Fannie and Freddie are a disaster. Loaning to minorities and risky folks is a disaster.'"

"Wow," commented Olbermann. "Usually they hide their racism a little bit better at Fox."
Nah, I've got to disagree with you there Keith. Neil Cavuto and Fox News as a whole do not really give a rat's ass what people think of their racist attitudes and remarks. Their bigotry and ignorance shine through on a regular basis and no one is really ashamed of it there. Roger Ailes wouldn't have it any other way.

Just like the GOP candidates, the use of fear and manipulation to drive home their talking points is part of the well-oiled machine that got Fox to the top of the charts and the Republicans in power. While they still dominate among older and more conservative audiences that like to hear the " I hate brown people" so its ok for you to as well, society as a whole is generally moving away from the old racist attitudes of the past. That doesn't mean that racism as an institution will disappear in 20 years, but it will most certainly be significantly reduced. That goes double for the ratings and popularity of the right's favorite propaganda organ.

The Biggest Business News Story Ever!

Ok, not really. This is a clip from Neil Cavuto over at Fox News. Saturday's hot topic was on why some hotel's are replacing bibles with condoms. Um, maybe they want to help people have safe sex and stop the spread of disease. Could you imagine that Mr. Purity?



Why don't you bring up a relevant business issue, like the proto-recession we're in, the sub-prime loan scandal, the record oil prices or what is becoming a worthless piece of paper, our very own currency? Get back to me Neil.

Neil Cavuto Doesn't Accept Information From The Real World

When you live in a bubble, it is hard to know what goes on in reality. Perhaps Neil and the President could form some sort of support group, call it Bubble Boy Anonymous. Bush lives life with a set of delusions and apparently so does Neil Cavuto of Fox News.

Believing numbers straight from the U.S. Census Bureau is too much for the financial guy at Fox when it comes to how many uninsured Americans there actually are. The ugly reality doesn't exactly mesh with Health Care industry profits and the "beauty" of the free market.

Of course with Hillary's health care plan in the news, he is on the attack and likens her reporting the same numbers exact numbers to him claiming to lose ten pounds. Well Neil can lie about his weight all he wants but there will still be 47 million Americans living without insurance today. They will still suffer from ailments and not having access to good care. They will still have to choose buying groceries and paying rent over having an HMO or PPO card that is essential to seeing a good doctor nowadays.

Neil makes plenty of money at Fox so he doesn't have to worry about waiting at an Emergency Room or getting his checkups. He doesn't have to make those dreadful budget decisions that so many families endure. Well good for you bubble boy. It doesn't give you any right to discount their realities or America's reality.
