Bob McDonnell Campaign In Stuttering Flap

7:09 pm EST October 5th, 2009 | Uncategorized | 11 Comments

Ah, those black Republicans conservatives strike again.

The billionaire co-founder of Black Entertainment Television apologized Monday for pretending to stutter at a campaign event as she mimicked the Democratic candidate for governor.

BET co-founder Sheila Johnson, for years a major donor to President Barack Obama, Gov. Timothy M. Kaine and other Democrats, stunned Virginia political observers in July by endorsing Republican Bob McDonnell in the governor’s race.

He is running against Democrat Creigh Deeds to replace Kaine, who is barred by state law from running for a second straight term.

Macaca 2?

    This is not remotely the same as using a veiled euphomism for The N Word. It’s bad, but not in the same ballpark. Not even close.

    But in any event, way to keep it classy, Team McDonnell.

    Now I understand why BET is so crappy nowadays. Ever since Sheila Johnson took over BET has been heading down the river. Let’s not for get the recent BET Awards/Michael Jackson Tribute fiasco.

    Oops Sheila Johnson is the ex-wife of the founder of BET, so I think I am mistaken that she is in charge of it now. Oh well BET still sucks in my opinion.

    Advocates for people with speech problems were outraged at Johnson’s characterization of Deeds.

    Advocates for people with speech problems weren’t outraged enough to say anything for the last 8 years.

    Just more proof that Democrats can dish it but can’t take it.

    Criticizing a politican for stuttering?!??

    Didn’t any of these assholes ever watch “I, Claudius”?!

    Or “Life of Brian”, for that matter?

    Oh, wait, Pontius Pilate’s speech impediment in “Life of Brian” wasn’t a stutter. Sorry about that.

    SaveFarris: Advocates for people with speech problems weren’t outraged enough to say anything for the last 8 years.

    Johnson’s been mimicing people with speech problems for the last 8 years?

    Farris, you’re not making any sense.

    WTF? Isn’t she married to Bob Johnson, the dick with Hillary’s campaign that tried to imply candidate Obama still had drug issues?
