Bill O'Reilly.....Slaves that built the white house were well fed

[Neotrotsky]

probably for the same reason Democrats promote BLM and their anti-cop message
agitate blacks enough to vote for Hillary in greater numbers

Unlike Papa Obama there is no love there
after all she is the old witch bitch that tried to keep him from the White House

It's amazing how you dumbasses can read something and manage to find things in the content that were never said.

"Slaves that worked there were well-fed and had decent lodgings provided by the government, which stopped hiring slave labor in 1802. However, the feds did not forbid subcontractors from using slave labor. So, Michelle Obama is essentially correct in citing slaves as builders of the White House, but there were others working as well. Got it all? There will be a quiz."

Give us your explanation

There is nothing in there suggesting O'Reilly was claiming slavery was ok which was being implied and in some cases said outright by you and your fellow lefties. Got it, good, so long.

Yet, O'Reilly is soft selling the institution of slavery
"well fed and had decent lodgings" is an attempt to justify the use of slave labor
It wasn't so bad

bullshit, no one is trying to justify slavery, pointing out historical facts that some slaves were well cared for is not an attempt to justify it.

your bullshit spin attempt is discredited..

You tell us....what is the purpose of stating that the slaves were "well fed" in this discussion?

to counter the constant dem/lib lie that all slaves were abused and mistreated. Stating that FACT does not justify or excuse slavery, it merely states a FACT.

If this is an issue, then demolish the White House. Otherwise, STFU about it, tbh.

It's not an "issue"....actually, it is to RWrs who are whining about it.....it's a touching point on how our country has moved forward in human rights.

The issue is Dems politicizing the issue. What moral high ground do they have? None. This was included in the speech to make it seem like they're the ones who overcame when in fact they were the perps.

Politicizing reality? It is a FACT that slaves helped build the WH. It is a FACT that the ancestor of slaves is now the First Lady living in the WH.....Progress is a great thing......except for RWrs.

Conservatives are absolutely clueless

Why are Liberals against understanding history with the correct facts?

Truth is hard for the Left
In fact, it is their worst enemy

because historical facts do not fit their agenda.

The afro americans actually volunteered to move building materials so the Scottish, Irish, and Italian craftsmen could construct and teach the afro american various carpentry skills the afro americans used later for their own businesses.

Partly true...

But in 1803, not many slaves were going out and starting businesses with their new found skills

Nether were they the only ones working to build the white house that narrative is ignorant.

The issue isn't that slaves built the White House but that Conservatives today are trying to justify it

Exactly, O'Reilly isn't making a moral judgement on slavery. We all know it was obviously wrong - well expect for Liberals who own the modern day inner city plantations. Being a history buff who writes books O'Reilly is just stating the facts.

 

[Theowl32]

Saying slaves were well fed, means we are pro slavery?

The left (especially the white guilt losers like bodecea and rightwinger) are losers.

You don't believe it to be abuse and being mistreated simply by BEING a slave?

Why do Conservatives struggle with the term "only"

To say that black lives matter does not mean "only" black lives matter
To say slaves built the White House does not mean "only" slaves built the White House

What is the purpose of the "fact" that some slaves were better fed than others or that slaves were not the only ones who built the White House (thanks Capt Obvious)?

Methinks that the ancestors of slaves have died long ago.
I think you meant DESCENDANT.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Michelle's statement incontrovertibly makes the fact: blacks have moved up to the east side, so to speak, and there is nothing that whitey can do about it.

Nothing wrong with facts, but what was the point of bringing it up? Michelle Obama was not casting aspersions on anyone with her comments, in fact she was detailing how far we have come as a country. Why did Mr. O'Reilly feel that her statement needed an addendum, THAT particular addendum?

Well, Wallace sure as hell wouldn't be a Democrat today would he? When President Johnson said he'd lose the south for a generation, Wallace was the kind of Democrat he was talking about losing. (Goodbye to bad rubbish)

Oh, and do explain how Mrs Obama's statement "takes advantage of people's ignorance"? What would people be "ignorant" about that you feel needed clarification? What is the importance of pointing out that the slaves were "well fed" when Mrs. Obama was not saying they weren't?

Not an anti-cop message....an anti-police abuse message. Are you unable to separate all of our LEO from the few who abuse their powers?

How do you know the cops you killed were the bad ones?
