She sure pi$#es off whitey when she speaks the truth.

White people hate to be reminded of what disgusting racists they were and are.

Amendment 15 - Race No Bar to Vote. Ratified 2/3/1870. History

1. The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.

2. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

The voting rights act of 1965 allowed for enforcement of the 15th amendment. The right to vote was PERMANENTLY given to black people in the 15th amendment. You fucking morons that believe other wise. God you are dumb and do no research. Whoopi, what a fucking name

Fair and balanced is the view --- always 4 against 1.
Why wouldn't whoop-pee be for the N word she is also able to kiss another liz on the program.
ABC is trash in my book and such B.S. programs like the view are what is wrong with the US.

The "n" word nonsense.
How every move affects the "black community".
CNN.. "Black America".
With team Obama playing the race card at every turn I really don't think most of us want 4 more years of this junk.
White trash like you have been tormenting blacks for well over 200 years.

And you are unhappy that blacks are reminding you of your latent racism. If not in words, certainly in thought and deed.

Time to face yourself for what you are: An ignorant racist, afraid that blacks might truly achieve equality.

All Whoopi did was remind people of our history. To speak of the 15th Amedndment while inventing new ways to deny the right to vote to minorities, you folks only highlight your hiprocacy and stupidity.

Whoopie is defnitly a "True Blue Gum" she's a nasty racist and loves promoting that Jesse Jackson "Blue Gum" sarcasam. I think Obama has enough white in him to put Jesse and whoopie in their racist places and enough black in him to not get in trouble doing it.

Don't spew that BS about only whites being racists. Look at the definition of the word, stupid. It refers to hating another race, not whites hating blacks or any other combination you can conjur up.

Hundreds of thousands of blacks HATE whites, period. THEY ARE RACISTS.

Cut the double-speak, you idiot. It's losing it's appeal to intelligent people.

People need to learn the real reason of the Civil WAR, it WASN'T over slavery. The North used the free the slaves act against the south who had revolted against the noth because of politics NOT slavery. The South wanted to receed from the 13 colonies and the North didn't want them to because the North couldn't funcition without the cheap products of the SOUTH. Look it up for your self. History just ain't taught right anymore. Read several articles about it on the www. and make up your own mind.

The Civil War was over States Rights vs Federal Rights. On merit, the South should have won. They were for States Rights.

The North was for a strong Federal Gov't, and wanted to limit State powers.

Lincoln saw the slave issue as a moral rallying cry. He was folllowing anti-slavery movements common in Northern cities of the time.

It gave the Union cause cover for the true intention: ever stronger and more meddling Federal Govt. We all see where that's gotten us.

I don't watch the view because of people like Rosy and Whoopi. In fact there is not too much about ABC that I like at all.

all i can say is that im sick and tired of hearing all this racism. not one of the replies i have read do anything but promote our problem of racism. somebody says something and someone says something right back just to perpetuate the problem. if we could all learn to look beyond the problems of in equality and racism our nation might accomplish something as a whole and quit tearing itself apart as have so many great civilizations before us.

Why do black people think all white people had slaves? My ancestors did not come to this country till the late 1800's--1895 to be exact and settled in the north of this country. No one had slaves--nor was there segregation. Nor was I ever allowed to use that N word ever--my brother did at home once and boy did my dad come down on him and the lecture started that basically went they are Gods people too and no different than you and something about looking at a mans soul and not their skin. You look in their eyes not the color of their face and on his lectures went. But we got the message.

Whoopi said whites use that word in their home--not my home nor my fathers or grandfathers or aunts and uncles.

I always hate when people say "all" people--"everyone" Nothing is all and everyone. We are not robots or cloned.
I used to say "everyone" when I was a kid and wanted something. You pull out "but I want one "everyone" has one!"

Who gave Whoopi and Sherri the authority to speak for white people? This is Barbara Walters show and what made Whoopi think she had the right to use the N word 3 times on the show and disrespect Barbara? Seemed like Barbara was appalled with Whoopi's behavior.
