Comment: “Other celebrities scheduled to participate in the bipartisan outreach include: Armstrong Williams,”… Bipartisan outreach in urban areas? How is that going to benefit Republicans? And Armstrong Williams!? Hmmm, didn’t fancy seeing him in this crowd. The Black Snob had an article on him “Armstrong Williams Could Take Barack Obama, But He'd Prefer Cash.” http://blacksnob.blogspot.com/2008/04/armstrong-willia ms-could-take-barack.html:
“The Black Commentator, an internet magazine, called Williams “The Biggest Whore of All.” The publishers lashed into Williams for perverting “America’s Black Forum,” a weekly news program they initially created…
In his column for conservative news site Townhall.com, Williams gives his analysis of Obama and his views, a man who looks great from the outside, but whose core is made of the gooey nougat of Liberalism.
After some “vetting,” Williams calls Obama “an ideal candidate,” praising him for being young, charismatic, optimistic, intelligent and energetic. Then Williams digs into “the other side of him.”
Williams listed the typical substantive complaints conservatives have about Obama: he is a dove on the war. He has never been tested on the war, as he was not in the senate when the war was first voted on. He proposes a troop redeployment that Williams does not agree with and has supported “comprehensive immigration reform.” …Chances of voting for Obama: None. Williams respects Obama as being another “outsider” in the inside world of black America, but all props stop there. Williams is resolute in his beliefs. While I, personally, see Williams as a farcical opportunist, he definitely is one farcical opportunist who makes a lot more money than me.”
