Belafonte Continues Tirade Against Bush

NEW YORK -- Entertainer Harry Belafonte, one of the Bush administration's harshest critics, compared the Homeland Security Department to the Nazi Gestapo on Saturday and attacked the president as a liar.

"We've come to this dark time in which the new Gestapo of Homeland Security lurks here, where citizens are having their rights suspended," Belafonte said in a speech to the annual meeting of the Arts Presenters Members Conference.

"You can be arrested and not charged. You can be arrested and have no right to counsel," said Belafonte.

Belafonte's remarks on Saturday _ part of a 45-minute speech on the role of the arts in a politically changing world _ were greeted with a roaring standing ovation from an audience which included singer Peter Yarrow of the folk group Peter, Paul and Mary, and members of the arts community from several dozen countries.

Messages seeking comments from Homeland Security and White House officials were not immediately returned.

He had called President Bush "the greatest terrorist in the world" during a trip to Venezuela two weeks ago. Belafonte, 78, made that comment after a meeting with Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez.

The Harlem-born Belafonte, who was raised in Jamaica, said his activism was inspired by an impoverished mother "who imbued in me that we should never capitulate to oppression."

He acknowledged that the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks demanded a reaction by the United States, but said the policies of the Bush administration were not the right response.

"Fascism is fascism. Terrorism is terrorism. Oppression is oppression," said Belafonte, who served in the U.S. Navy during World War II.

Bush, he said, rose to power "somewhat dubiously and ... then lies to the people of this nation, misleads them, misinstructs, and then sends off hundreds of thousands of our own boys and girls to a foreign land that has not aggressed against us."

Harry Belafonte is one of the rudest, most ignorant men I've ever met.

For someone whose claim to fame is the Banana boat song, it's scary how high an opinion he has of himself.

 

[Killswitch]

I dont disagree with anything he said in that article.

 

[LadyFunkenstein]

He's exaggerating a bit to affect, but hell anybody who wants to speak out on Bush is A-OK in my book.

By the way, I'll bet you 20 bucks that YOU busy SHAME your white "people" on this very board.

If you will take that bet, I will happily take a poll.

If you will welch on me, don't bother.

 

[Bob Peale]

So Richard Gere, Barbara Streisand, Susan Sarandon, Michale Moore, and Tim Robbins speak for all white people as well? And everytime they open their mouths, should everyone hang their head in shame?

How do you assign one person's comments, good or bad, to an entire race? Unless there is a hell of a good union out there, I don't remember any standing racial congress that has been designated the spokesperson for any race.

I do shame WHITE people on this board

as it tends to be LEFTIST

And imbued with hatred of all Bush/America etc and just downright sick

But hey, its a porn board, waddya expect

I do know this.

The comments made by this guy and Jackson/Sharpton and the guy in my other thread as well as those made by Obamaramajamma are doing a serious disservice to Blacks

The fact that so many Blacks dont see that is a black mark on them as well

the squeaky whell does get the oil, but also get replaced!

What Black repudiates the horrible comments made by these Belfart-eh et all?

You might think that but he's become a cartoon character and isnt taken seriously by 99.9% of the people.

Unfortunate really because although I disagree with his politics I admire his tenacity and interest.

That and all the cut and paste and long winded bullshit.

Im good for two or three sentances then Im out.

 

[busybody..]

Lady F

Its not the fact he speaks against Bush or DHS or America, he has that right, not a problem in my book

And because this is America, if I had a problem with him it would be a shame on me

It is WHAT he says and HOW he says it that is a problem for me

I assume YOU had no problem with FatStar Jones comment, either!

 

[Ham Murabi]

Amazing, isn't it, that with this Gestapo in place we still haven't managed to capture Belafonte and throw him in jail.

If by "there are many many whites that do repudiate their views as always seen in elections!" you are saying that there is an implicit rejection of their views, then you can no more claim that whites explicitly repudiate their views than you can claim that blacks explicitly support Belafonte's. I've seen about as many public and private figures specifically repudiare Gere et. al as I've seen people endorse Belafonte, so your argument lacks any real validity.

oops - I think I just repdiated you

 

[Gringao]

We need more tally-men to keep track of how bananas Harry's gotten. He declares his disdain for oppression, then licks the boots of Hugo Chavez, a communist thug who doesn't think twice about killing his political foes or sending his brownshirted lackeys to gun down protestors.

 

[busybody..]

if they really were the Gestapo

then he and Richard Gere, Barbara Streisand, Susan Sarandon, Michale Moore, and Tim Robbins most Democrats in Comgress and hundreds of thousands of others


Wouldnt be around, let alone running around making MILLIONS!

the moveon.org people are in lock step with the names you mention

their candidates were SHUT OUT in elections, hence the repudiation

"Sen" Obamaramajammabullshit had a chance to DO THE RIGHT THING and repudiate FatBitch ClitBitch and her PLANTATION comments

Not only did he NOT, he EXCUSED them

He is nothing more then what Jackie Mason called David Dinkins

"A fancy Shavrtza in a suit!"

 

[Cap’n AMatrixca]

That reads like a drunken orgy...

Yeah, I know.

I tend to read the first two sentences, then the last sentence. I figure that will do it. It's worked so far.

That might have washed years ago Mr Macarthy but today you sound stupid saying it because you could just be describing Bush.

 

[Cap’n AMatrixca]

It's ALWAYS about Bush.

Every fucking thread.

Bush

Bush

Bush

 

[LadyFunkenstein]

"A fancy Shavrtza in a suit!"

That's "schwartza" you idiot. It is Yiddish, comes from the German "Schwarzes." You call your a Jew? You shame yids the world over.

And Jackie Mason is as much of a has been as Belafonte.

 

[Cap’n AMatrixca]

People still pack Jackie's shows though.

He's on Broadway and Belefonte is down to CNN...

Yeah right, I've been to theatre in NYC where he performs. If you are impressed, that means you haven't.

 

[Killswitch]

Id love to kick the shit out of Jackie Mason.

God I loathe that dude.

 

[Cap’n AMatrixca]

You misunderestimate what I am saying...

Really? You saw Jackie? Me, I wouldn't pay to see his act. I don't find him any funnier than I found Lenny Bruce to be.
