MM: We’re With Harry on this one – Sally Lets Get Our Guns Damn It

Good Mornin World !

This is the Video that Has Harry and US Pissed

This is no better than that clowndressing Mr. Shirley Q. Liquor.


When will this Blackface Stop Being Funny People ?

the worst part is that it’s not in the culture of Australia to do Blackface;  yet we see a 2009 Minstrel show on National Television.

The World is saying Shame On You Australia – We Are Not Suprised at this, but at least Now We All know how you air your dirty laundry.

There is never a time or a place where racism is popular, acceptable or funny. in todays’ media it’s received more attention than most things; but this is going wayyyy beyond any acceptable limit of good taste.

is this a view of the racial identity problems in Australia, Still

We all know that many aboriginal children were stolen from their parents by the state in the early 60′s; and given to white australians – to be “Nationalized”.

what ? don’t the white folks realize that These Are the REAL Australians ?

ooooohhhh hang on, maybe the white folks in australia forgot that most of their dna comes from the prison camp. yes, the australian prisons were the breeding ground of the majority of the white australian population – as thats’ where the british exiled their prisoners to serve their sentences.

English murderers, whores and common thieves – the first Aussies

(remember the Aboriginal people don’t count in their australian eyes, even though they the real australians/aboriginal peoples were there when the white prisoners arrived)  Spiffing, to quote King George

Australia in case you’ve forgotten WAS Founded for Whitefolks As A Great British Penal Colony. Yupper.. so those Blackfaces are the Real Aussies. Now Munch On That for a Hot Crispy Moment, Whydontcha – Uh HUH

We’re With Harry on this one -

Sally Lets Get Our Guns Damn It.. JACKSONS Come To The STAGE NOW – Mike You’re Up

Blackface ‘Jackson Jive’ skit shocks Connick – CNN.com.

(CNN) — Movie star and singer Harry Connick Jr. made waves around the world by condemning, on air, an Australian television skit featuring a group of performers who wore blackface to impersonate the late pop star Michael Jackson and his brothers.

Harry Connick Jr. was visibly dismayed after watching an insensitive skit performance on an Australian show.

Harry Connick Jr. was visibly dismayed after watching an insensitive skit performance on an Australian show.

The “Jackson Jive” performed the song “Can You Feel It” Wednesday wearing huge black wigs, blackface and one spangled glove each. The Michael Jackson impersonator wore whiteface.

Connick was one of the judges on the program, a special edition of the Australian variety show “Hey Hey It’s Saturday,” which aired Wednesday.

“If they turned up looking like that in the United States,” he said, frowning, “Hey, hey, there’s no more show.” Video Watch Connick’s reaction to the performance »

The show’s host, longtime Australian TV presenter Daryl Somers, may have compounded the problem by twice referring to the performers as “boys” — a historically derogatory way of talking to or about black men.

Somers later apologized on air to Connick.

“It didn’t occur to me until later — I think we may have offended you with that and I deeply apologize on behalf of all of us,” he said. “Because I know, your countrymen, it’s an insult to have a blackface routine.”

Connick replied that he would not have appeared on the show if he had known about the routine in advance.

In a message posted on his Web site, Connick wrote that “in the American culture, the blackface image is steeped in a negative history and considered offensive.”

Connick also sought to clarify that he didn’t “ascribe any motives to anyone” or “call anyone a racist” on the show.

“I do not believe that the performers intended any harm,” Connick’s message stated. “I appreciate the folks who have written in support but please know that I allow everyone their own opinions and can only speak for myself.”

Also on Connick’s Web site was a response to criticisms that the performer was in a sketch on the “MadTV” comedy variety show in which he appeared to be mimicking a black preacher. According to the Web site posting, the 1996 sketch was “a spoof featuring a black baptist [sic] minister [played by African-American comedian Orlando Jones] … and a white southern evangelical preacher.”

Connick was playing the white preacher, the posting stated.

    That is pretty sad. People never fail to amaze at how far they will go to make money or ratings. I have come to the conclusion that this world has become a self serving nation and desperate for the love of power. It is not about the people anymore and that is exactly how our self destruction begins.

    Dori you think anybody else was listening ?
    I know some of my cousins in uk were so unaware
    of this; and when I forwarded it, they seemed
    genuinely shocked.

    somehow I am not shocked – but just tired now.

    What you girls failed to see is that, unlike America, blackface is a form of comedic make-up practiced across the world, it is considered a "stereotyped performance" but not racist in anyway.
    Please learn the meaning of your words before blabbering out idiotic comments, stereotype is different from racism.

    Stereotype IS racism…all white people…blah blah blah…all black people…blah blah blah. Now "girl", it might do YOU some good to learn the meaning of a few words…or better yet…remain silent and be thought of as a fool rather than speaking and removing ALL doubt.

    did you read the comment from the woman who said we were stupid for
    thinking this wasn't a global phenomenon. she is a piece of work.
    I've traveled the globe as a travel and financial pro; I think I would have
    seen it more prominantly if it were reality.

    she is a reallllll piece of work
