Subject: RE: BS: Modern Day Uncle Toms & Aunt Jemimas
I think this is horrifying. I also think it is quite possible that Juan Williams is voicing his honest opinion, which may be at times totally wrong, pig-headed, or whatever. I have seen him many times and like his point of view usually. I also like Michelle Obama and the president. He gets to think what he wants to think and say what he wants to say, up to some line no one should cross...It is OK to say Juan Williams is totally misinformed, he is illogical, wrong in his thinking etc, rude to the first lady, whatever. It is not OK, at least in my book, to refer to him as an Uncle Tom or a lawn jockey for expressing his personal opinion. This is America. He gets to. mg
