Comments

Youthful Hasselbeck, endowed with at least fundamental reasoning ability, versus clueless Whoopi Goldberg, a liberal icon reputedly possessed with tremendous intellect and profound social consciousness: Yet another glaring example of precisely why Europe's a cultural, technological and financial gem, and Africa withers.

It's the gray matter, Whoopi.

Wow T.J. You just found an alternative way of calling her the N-word. Disappointing.

Wow T.J.
I love how you just put all blacks into a box due to an opinion two black women have, but many blacks do not agree with. Ever listen to Bill Cosby speak on the subject. And by the way Black people are not full blooded African...we have some European in many of us too, though you may not want to admit it. And by the way...many blacks live in Europe, and also, not all of Europe is a Gem, they are not special, they have wars and slums, and civil unrests too. Maybe you are much like Whoopi, racist in your own special way...and spewing uninformative information before you think about what the truth really is.
