I don’t like John Stewart very much, but by God he has good logic, reasoning and sense here – and poor O’Reilly is a pompous and embarrassing simpleton.
I am truly shocked that Jon Stewart doesn’t understand why middle aged white guys don’t like rap. Especially by black artists. Especially when their daughters listen to it.
Good reasoning? This is an example of Stewart’s stupidity, and O’Reilly’s unpreparedness. Stewart thinks Common believes Assata is innocent? What a BS story. Does Common have any reason for this? At best Obama has invited a guy who supports the Black Panthers ad writes a song praising it, and has kooky ideas about one of them being innocent.
The problem is that Fox and their ilk draw a distinction between the 1960′s militants who took on “By Any Means Necessary” (Panthers and Malcolm X) and the 1970′s militants who took on “I’ll give you my gun when you pry it from my cold, dead hands!” These two statements are, ideologically, the same.
There is very little difference between what The Right wing says, in this regard, and what those that they call “African American Militants” say. I will fight, kill and die to protect my rights and the rights of those I care about.
Common’s last statement was even tamer then what I usually hear from the right wing; “I hold up a Peace Sign, but I carry a Gun.” The right wing just wants to carry a gun…
Finally, the Black Panther’s were no more Terrorists then the Confederate soldiers were.

Read Commons lyrics. It’s clear that he believes that the homicide was justified, because the police at the time, in his view, were bent on eliminating BLA & Panthers through extra-legal means.
The US and our police forces have a very, very long history of eliminating blacks through extra-legal means and an even longer one of using the laws to destroy problematic blacks.
World history is full of instances of what happens to police, even innocent policemen, when they are used as instruments of oppression against groups. Why don’t you look up the “Troubles”, no black folk required to get lots of cops killed.
#4 I deleted windows fonts to below 400, and everything’s running better, including the classic menu view in lotus 123 9.9…which had become primitive dot matrix print.
I had over 900 fonts.
But although everything seems to work better, especially Firefox, I still cant’ view th is without page fault.
Taxed enough….. Get a Linux boot CD and run it in live mode. Works on most hardware.
I own several PCs and most of them run Linux. I work on Win xp/Veeesta/se7en all day long and want to enjoy my computers at home.
And… Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz is left leaning. So what! There is 44 new minutes (x 4 days a week) of fake news on Comedy Central. Over at Fox it there is 44 (X 5days a week) minutes of real news. Thanks for hanging in there Shep!

Oh yea, and someone who is against interracial marriage. Then again, that didn’t stop Muhammad Ali from being invited.
#4 I booted to Win7, and it won’t even show the clip as playable…
So it must be my Trend Micro Anti Virus…that’s the only common denominator, unless something is wrong with my hardware.
But as you have the same problem, that’s unlikely.
great cast thanks
Played great on Linux. Usually it’s the other way around.

What better way to coddle a person to become a better man than to invite him to the Whitehouse? Its why Bush won’t attend events there.

Jon Stewart should host debates. He has to be more frighting than Tim Russert or Ted Koppel.
