Question for anyone who heard the crazy caller on Al Frakken's show today

[journalist3072]

I'm referring to the guy who called in and told Sam Sedar that the people in New Orleans don't want to work. They never wanted to work, they don't want jobs!

He was batshit crazy.

Anyways, did he identify his party affiliation?

I thought Sam said the guy tried to say he was a Libertarian?

Does anyone know?

1. I heard it....

the guy never gave his party affiliation...the libertarian was another caller who wasnt' anywhere near as bad as the one who kept saying "those people" didn't want to work....Samm finally pinned him down on who "those people" were and the guy said "blacks"...then he said "I guess I put my foot in it now, huh?"

2. Thanks for the clarification on that.

And yes, I did hear Sam finally force to say WHAT people he was talking about (mainly African-Americans).

That guy sounded just like this conservative blogger I know who said that the Katrina victims were "riding the gravy train" and their time was up!

Amazing isn't it?

3. I was listening at my PC

with my mouth wide open in shock.

I live in one of the most lilly white states in the country but we're mostly progressive up here and don't hear much blatant racism so this was a shock to me...

4. Sam is great at that

I've heard him do that a bunch of times, basically just letting callers hang themselves.
