Howard Stern Exposes Ignorance Of Obama Supporters

The worst thing is that the stupid 3 sounded like they really knew what was going on,they were so confidant in their responses. Most dummys answer with a different tone and say DUh alot.

Howard Stern said (in the full interview) that they did find one person that was voting for McCain. Of course this wasn't about McCain/Obama as much as it was about people voting along racial lines without knowing anything about the candidate. They specifically went to Harlem to find black voters.

Full show. There are 3 or 4 uses of profanity in this clip. It's mostly at one point in the middle.

I just got back from the US a couple of weeks ago and the whole partisan posturing thing was very entertaining indeed.
I seemed to be surrounded by predominantly white dyed-in-the-wool republicans whose only arguments against Obama were that he was:

a. Black
b. Muslim
c. A Radical Muslim
d. The brother of a Radical Muslim
e. The son of a radical Muslim

Nobody seemed to have any real argument about policy issues, only the above issues mattered. It would be just as easy to go out on the streets in many mainly white hick towns and get some real humdinger opinions and answers.
Therefore, the ignorance of Obama supporters is likely equal to the ignorance of McCain supporters.

Quite what this issue has to do with anything in the real world is beyond me and looks like just another idiotic political statement by a has-been trying to remind us he's still alive.

Most Americans think Tim Horton is the Canadian Emporer.

So americans are not that smart, whats new.

Or this could all be a... wait for it... entertainment show. naww, must be real.

This is the funniest thing I have ever seen and I don't even like Howard Stern. How can you NOT know that Sarah Palin is running with McCain???!!!

stern is funny...but an unbiased political researcher???? yeah right!!! he makes sean hannity almost seem normal.

I dont know what you are talking about.
Stern is a genius when it comes to digging out a laugh from the most serious subjects.
Love him or hate him, he calls it like it is.
I remember during one of Clinton's many scandals when he sent Stuttering John to ask Paula Jones if Governor Clinton used protection, a perfectly valid question.

BTW, Stern is a Mega-Bush-Hater.

His ideas are so socialist that if he is elected with a democratically controlled congress, this country will have it's constitution ripped to shreds and an we will be known as the United Socialist States of America.

First, I hope whoever is the new President brings along a few roles of scotch tape to put the thing back together. We have seen more and more of our liberties slowly slip away under the guise of "homeland security" and the war on terrorism.

Second, regardless of the issues or the color of the candidate, African Americans have historically and overwhelmingly supported whoever is the Democratic candidate.

Last, Stern is a joke. He along with Rush, Hannity, Olberman, and their like are just contributing to the dumbing down of America.

Tim Horton was a hockey player who was credited for the coffee + doughnut combination. I don't know if the chain of shops were started by him or if they were just named after him though. I could be wrong but to my credit I've never gone around telling people who Tim Horton was/is (still alive?) as per my understanding of the man so in this case it wouldn't matter if I was completely ignorant of Mr. Horton. If I had gone around spreading what I know as fact then we'd have a problem, unless of course I'm right.

Register this time?

No matter what ACORN says...you only have to register to vote ONCE.

Anyway....I like the last soundclip of the woman saying McCain was "he sounded like he was not uneducated" Doesn't that make him educated?

Sean Hannity does the same thing on his radio show...It's really hilarious!

Yes you are probably correct but isn't that what the MSM do on a regular basis?
How many times have they "selectively" interviewed the one 'ignernt' red-neck in the crowd and try to paint everyone that has that same belief with the same brush?

Wasn't that your intention of making this thread, to label black Obama supporters as ignorant? Aren't you the one with the "Howard Stern Exposes Ignorance Of Obama Supporters" link in your signature?

If you find it so grossly unfair, why do you promote it?

Howard Stern is a "shock jock" meaning he likes to get a rise out of people by doing things that are deviant. In this video, he wants to make the people from the area they interviewed to seem like they do not know Obama's own policies and are only voting for him because he's black. Do you think he would try and post the other audio that would otherwise have proved him wrong?

Actually my intent was to post a thread that was entertaining, yet sad but true, which is why I posted it in this forum.
I've given up on the MSM to report the truth.
Yes it's. "grossly unfair" in how they report or don't report things if they feel it will negatively affect a certain candidate.
Stern didn't "seem" to do anything.
He doesn't control how those people feel, so why are you shooting the messenger?
Btw, a lot of people are voting for Barack because he is, ahem, black.
Get over it.

Do you believe that black republicans that are going to vote for McCain are racist also? Or is it just white republicans that are racist?

It's enough to make you sick. Ignorance. Rampant ignorance. And why do the Democrats appeal to the ignorant? Not saying there aren't some stupid Republicans, but I see the Democrats play on ignorance and take advantage of it. I think they really, really, deep down inside want the ignorance to continue.

And the black community? This reverend and that one? Well, I know intellectually that this was done for entertainment, but deep down, it kinda verifies what a lot of us have suspected for a long time.

It's one thing to be ignorant. It's quite another to remain ignorant.

Shocker.

Poor, uneducated blacks blindly following Obama even though they don't have a clue what his stances are.

I don't think that this is funny at all. Its disturbing and sad.

the weird thing is, obama didn't get one single vote in harlem apparently. (?)

Black voters are heavily represented in the 94th Election District in Harlem’s 70th Assembly District. Yet according to the unofficial results from the New York Democratic primary last week, not a single vote in the district was cast for Senator Barack Obama.

BOTTOM LINE: Most people, black or white, or whatever aren't smart enough to vote. During the last election there was a website that would test you on yer knowledge and tell you if you were informed enough to vote. I thought that was a great idea. In a country thats always telling people to get out and vote all I have to say is....

Could you cretins sit down, shut up, and leave the voting to me and only me....utopian society....DONE!

Last, Stern is a joke. He along with Rush, Hannity, Olberman, and their like are just contributing to the dumbing down of America.



No, that would be the schools. They're too busy teaching how to put rubbers on cucumbers, that Johnny has 2 mommys & other pc crap and lowering test standards so no one gets their feelings hurt.

Only white republicans can be called racist. Calling a black racist is racist!

You mean both of them?
I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. I'm sure there are many black republicans.
But do you ever look around the crowd during one of McCain/Palin's pep talks?
Looks like a whiteout blizzard to me.

I'm considered 'Black' but umm, even I'd have to say, that was a good comeback. HAHA.

As for this video, I'm certain he found 3 of the most ignorant people, who answered all the questions the way he wanted them to, and put them into this video, excluding the ones that weren't ignorant. Although, there are many ignorant people in Harlem...I live here, I would know. You can't blame them; government cuts funding for education and this is what happens in the long run, and less jobs equals lower income, thus creating fewer alternatives for kids to have private schooling.

I'm 17 years old, Black, and in college... Fortunately.
