Republican Bob Corker says Harold Ford jr. is too Black & Sexy? by Ted Duplessis

Harold Ford, the JFK of Tennessee. The man is so sexy that even Hugh Hefner took notice.  The media's constant use of the phrase "Harold Ford=BLACK" and "Harold Ford the first BLACK"-god dam will they shut the FUCK UP about this man supposedly being so BLACK that is irking the hell out of me! Gees! The man is Brad Pitt with a slight olive tan and lets leave it at that! People really need to learn how to use the Louisiana term, "Person of Color" instead of "BLACK" or "African-(anything)" They are so desperate to play up a BLACK/white story-line that they have no shame. No one is saying "Bob Corker, the old white man" or "Bob Corker the Euro-(anything)," when they refer to him in the media.

I think that Tennessee's voting patterns have only hurt the state. Jessie Jackson has been trying to help the poor whites in Appalachia for decades but they still want to vote Republican and live in their trailer parks.  The poverty of Appalachia is so bad that it makes a New Orleans housing development look like the South of France! 

I love Tennessee people and I love the lady who smokes my Bar-B-Q ribs in her Tennessee smoke cabin but these people have been living like out cast by the white elite for a long time.  Harold Ford is a Tennessee native, who deeply appears to care for the poor whites of Tennessee and it would be a foolish mistake if they let this man slip through their fingers.  When I look at Harold Ford, I see the hope of Tennessee. That is a man that really  cares about his state.  Plus he wants to protect the state from the virus of illegal immigration that has destroyed at least 10 states in the U.S. already! 

Those folks in Tennessee better do the right thing because the good ole boy ain't looking for nothing except selling Tennessee out to corporations and illegal drug runners!

It is a shame at how dirty the Republicans are playing.  They are using racial ads and the main stream media does the most biased interviews. They are running an ad that shows a white woman insinuating that she had sex with Harold Ford at the Play Boy Mansion! This is to get into America's obsession with interracial sex but a white woman having sex with Harold Ford is hardly inter-racial! It's not like he's Wesley Snipes or anything. That ad had me laughing for 3 hours. I have to give it to Republicans-thats a bunch of dirty old men, who know how to play dirty and you better bring your "A" Game in sleaze when your up against a good ole boy! I do not know when Democrats are going to learn how to "go there" but they better start! I think good ole boy (R) Bob Corker is a little jealous of Mr. Ford.  Maybe good ole boy, Bob Corker is out of his Viagara. Was Bob Corker serious about that bullshit ad?

O.K. Harold, send some of those play-boy bunnies to New Orleans! I know you have them in hiding because the good ole boys told me that you had them on that sleazy Republican commercial, which CNN played at least 20 times in 5 minutes for their "story."

Is it just me or is Harold Ford Jr. white?? I mean, look at the guy. All this talk about the first black this and that is highly questionable as far as Harold Ford. -- The guy looks like he belongs on the Happy Days.

Also, I can't believe all the controversies surrounding that add. You know the one. The woman is white; so what? Would it make people feel better if she was Chinese? Personally, I think it's racist to even mention the race of the woman, period. How dare they(lol)??

Black rights groups will complain about virtually anything. Personally, I hardly noticed the woman's race, at first. Not to mention the fact that Harold Ford is white!ha-ha...

- I think it's all a little/very ridiclous..

I agree with the above comment. I didnt see the add as racist due to Harold Ford Jr. not being an African American. He looks Creole or Native American-white with some black. I think that America's media is racist and the reporters in New York are racist and were looking to make this a black/white issues. Like the article said-Harold Ford isnt Wesley Snipes. My grandmother thought he was a white man.
