| Tavis Smiley and Dr. Cornel West are Black liberal agitators who complain about President Barack Obama not doing enough for Black America. When the president does something, these two nut farmers criticize him. These guys are just as worse as the conservative agitators I've often mention. |
Black liberal extremist can't be satisfied.
This has to be one of the reason why I can't stand Black liberal activists. They want more and more.
They can't settle for compromise.
They always figure that the president isn't doing enough for one group or doing too much for one group.
There are some liberal extremists who can't be satisfied with the way the president does his job.
They're just as bad as the conservative agitators and White extremists.
On the positive note, SiriusXM has relaunched its networks. The relaunch includes the channels I normally listen to in my drive time. The channel SiriusXM LEFT will now be called SiriusXM Progress and SiriusXM The Power will be called SiriusXM Urban View.
Through Public Radio International and featured on WCPT AM, the nation's most popular progressive talk radio network comes Tavis Smiley. Smiley, who is a host on PBS program on late nights also goes to the radio to talk about the state of Black America. He also host a second show with Dr. Cornel West, professor from Union Theological Seminary in the City of New York.
Tom Joyner dropped Smiley for Roland Martin after he kept complaining to the audience that Barack Obama in a theme that described him as a "HOUSE NIGGER!"
Anyways, on Obama News featured Meet The Press, David Gregory gets Smiley, Congresswoman Marcia Fudge (D-Ohio), and Michael Steele debate this controversy.
Smiley goes to the nut farm with this comment.
[I think that Obama was] pushed to the podium and these comments were as "weak as pre-sweetened Kool Aid."
"I appreciate and applaud the fact that the president did finally show up," Smiley said on NBC's "Meet the Press."
"[But however], this town has been spinning a story that's not altogether true. He did not walk to the podium for an impromptu address to the nation. He was pushed to that podium. A week of protest outside the White House, pressure building on him inside the White House pushed him to that podium. So I'm glad he finally arrived.
"But when he left the podium, he still had not answered the most important question, that Keynesian question, where do we go from here?"
"That question this morning remains unanswered, at least from the perspective of the president. And the bottom line is this is not Libya, this is America."On the Trayvon Martin situation, I think the president is leading from behind".
From Wikipedia.
Tavis Smiley is an American talk show host, author, liberal political commentator, entrepreneur, advocate and philanthropist.
Smiley was born in Gulfport, Mississippi, and grew up in Bunker Hill, Indiana. After attending Indiana University, he worked during the late 1980s as an aide to Tom Bradley, the mayor of Los Angeles. Smiley became a radio commentator in 1991, and starting in 1996, he hosted the talk show BET Talk (later renamed BET Tonight) on BET.
Controversially, after Smiley sold an exclusive interview of Sara Jane Olson to ABC News in 2001, BET declined to renew Smiley's contract that year. Smiley then began hosting The Tavis Smiley Show on NPR from 2002 to 2004 and currently hosts Tavis Smiley on PBS on the weekdays and "The Tavis Smiley Show" from PRI. Starting in 2010 Smiley and Dr. Cornel West have joined forces for their own radio talk show, Smiley & West. They were featured together interviewing musician Bill Withers in the 2009 documentary film Still Bill.
He is the new host of "Tavis Talks" on BlogTalkRadio's Tavis Smiley Network.
In 2008, Tavis Smiley announced that he would resign in June 2008 as a commentator on the Tom Joyner Morning Show. He cited fatigue and a busy schedule in a personal call to Joyner. However, Joyner, referring to several commentaries in which Smiley was critical of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, indicated otherwise on his program, stating: "The real reason is that he can't take the hate he's been getting regarding the Barack issue—hate from the black people that he loves so much."
Prior to the public controversy and being elected President, Obama had been on Smiley's PBS show six times.
In 2012, Smiley participated in a "Poverty Tour" with professor Cornel West in promoting their book The Rich and the Rest of Us: A Poverty Manifesto.
The stated aim of the tour was to highlight the plight of the impoverished population of the United States prior to the 2012 Presidential Election, whose candidates Smiley and West stated had ignored the plight of the poor.
GOP Sundays often have a Republican on there. Usually it's a requirement that Senator John McCain (R-Arizona), Senator Lindsay Graham (R-South Carolina), Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky), Congressman Mike Rogers (R-Michigan), Congressman Darrell Issa (R-California) and Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-Minnesota) be on GOP Sundays.
There's a 3:1 ratio when it comes to Republicans being featured on GOP Sundays.
For some reason the president's talk about being racially profiled became the talk of the town.
