This is such B.S. Bob Johnson tried to paint Obama as being a druggie while Clinton was off fighting for black people. First, she was doing no such thing. Second, what’s up with that? It’s bad enough that he tried to use a black man w/drugs “in the neighborhood” stereotype, but then he tried to cover it up with some lame excuse that he was referring to Obama’s community service. Uhm…I might be an idiot, but I’m not a fool. Even an idiot knows better than that. Look at his statements.
“To me, as an African American, I am frankly insulted the Obama campaign would imply that we are so stupid that we would think Hillary and Bill Clinton, who have been deeply and emotionally involved in black issues — when Barack Obama was doing something in the neighborhood; I won’t say what he was doing, but he said it in his book — when they have been involved,” Johnson said.”
You were talking about his community service in Chicago? Yeah, right.
And what if he was snorting some coke, which he admitted was a mistake in that same book? The image of black men and drugs weren’t so offensive to Bob when he was making millions off of it while running BET? Oh yes, I went there.
For someone who’s activities “in the neighborhood” cost him a $1.5 divorce settlement, I would stick with the issues if I was him.
