I may speak about that later on. Now, I\u2019m going to introduce you to the Chump of the Week. This week, it\u2019s Harry Belafonte.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Harry Belafonte ((<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Harry_Belafonte\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Harold George &#8220;Harry&#8221; Belafonte, Jr.<\/a>)) was once a singer of some note about 100 years ago. He has since become a complete idiot. He used to have great ideals, opposing Apartheid in South Africa, the American Civil rights movement, good things we can all agree on. However, he has grown very close to people who, to put it bluntly, want the United States destroyed. I don\u2019t know if he is a card carrying communist, (Information I see is that he never joined the party), but he has certainly backed most of the communist regimes over the years.<\/p>\n<p>He has opposed American foreign policy over the decades supporting Fidel Castro, the Nuclear Freeze movement, Hugo Chavez and opposition to the Bush Administration\u2019s War on Terror and invasion of Iraq. It\u2019s pretty safe to say that Banana man ((<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Day-O_(The_Banana_Boat_Song)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Day-O (The Banana Boat Song<\/a>))) Belafonte, in typical moonbat manner, never met a tyrant he didn\u2019t like.<\/p>\n<p>Well this week he topped all that with this comment:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThat there should be this lingering infestation of really corrupt people who sit trying to dismantle the wishes of the people, the mandate that has been given to Barack Obama, and I don\u2019t know what more they want,\u201d he said. \u201cThe only thing left for Barack Obama to do is to work like a third world dictator and just put all these guys in jail.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yup, Mr. Civil Rights showed his true colors, and they are RED ((<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Communism\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Communism<\/a>)), and I don\u2019t mean Red State ((<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Red_states_and_blue_states\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Red states and blue states<\/a>)). <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20121217025301\/http:\/\/www.foxnews.com:80\/entertainment\/2012\/12\/14\/harry-belafonte-msnbc-criticized-over-jailing-republicans-remarks\/?intcmp=features\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fox News has some details Harry\u2019s recent episode of verbal diarrhea<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>What do you do when it has been a while since you made headlines? If you are Harry Belafonte, apparently you say the president should jail Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>The American singer-songwriter, once considered the \u201cKind of Calypso,\u201d this week ignited outrage \u2013 and plenty of eye rolls \u2013 after speaking with MSNBC\u2019s Al Sharpton and saying President Obama should rule like a third-world dictator and toss his GOP opponents behind bars.<\/p>\n<p>Belafonte went on to claim that Republicans are &#8220;violating the American desire&#8221; by working to keep government limited, taxes low and the country solvent. Sharpton ((<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Al_Sharpton\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Alfred Charles &#8220;Al&#8221; Sharpton, Jr.<\/a>)) was clearly amused by the suggestion \u2013 and could be heard laughing in the background.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And of course that paragon of virtue ((<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tawana_Brawley_rape_allegations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tawana Brawley rape allegations<\/a>)), Al Sharpton would find this amusing and a great idea. He\u2019s always been a corrupt racist scumbag. Hey Al! You paid off that lawsuit you lost yet? Of course, not everyone thinks Harry was amusing with his most recent comments.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cHarry Belafonte has a long career as singer, actor, civil rights crusader, and now, professional lefty nutball. He no longer is content to just abuse conservatives, now he wants to envision Obama as a third-world dictator and have his opponents jailed,\u201d Dan Gainor, VP of Business &amp; Culture at the Media Research Institute, told FOX411\u2019s Pop Tarts column.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Lefty nutball. I like that. It\u2019s almost as good as Barking Moonbat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/barking_moonbat3.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1657\" alt=\"Barking Moonbat\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/barking_moonbat3.jpg?resize=250%2C244\" width=\"250\" height=\"244\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Belafonte\u2019s latest remarks have also drawn condemnation across the Twitterverse, including from former GOP Presidential hopeful, Herman Cain, who tweeted: \u201cWhat\u2019s up with these crazy liberals?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery time Harry Belafonte is given a chance to speak, we are granted the opportunity to laugh at his incompetence,\u201d tweeted one, while another called him a \u201ctotal wackjob.\u201d Another observed: \u201cDon&#8217;t know what&#8217;s more disturbing, Harry Belafonte&#8217;s statement or that @MSNBC thinks he&#8217;s worth talking to.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I wonder if it isn\u2019t time to have Banana Boat Harry declared mentally incompetent? I certainly wouldn\u2019t trust him behind the wheel of a car&#8230;.or a bicycle with training wheels.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Some wonder why the mainstream media continues to provide a platform for Belafonte.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn recent years, Belafonte has said that President George W. Bush as \u2018the greatest terrorist in the world\u2019 was \u2018no better\u2019 than Osama bin Laden,\u201d Gainor added. \u201cHe has claimed the Tea Parties were \u2018at the vanguard\u2019 of \u2018the greatest threat of all is the undermining of our Constitution.\u2019 The equally bizarre hosts of MSNBC keep giving Belafonte a platform because they want to give such bizarre comments credibility. It&#8217;s an embarrassment to a once-great man to have fallen so far.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I beg to differ, It isn\u2019t bizarre at all that MSNBC keeps giving this butthead a forum to spew his anti-American hate. He fits right in over there in Moonbat Central. Poor Harry. He was once a great singer and humanitarian. Now, all he\u2019s good for these days is comic relief for Chris Matthews. So, this week, Harry Belafonte has earned Anger Central\u2019s award of \u201cChump of the Week! Why don\u2019t stop by the offices Harry and come collect your award? This week, we all chipped in for a bunch of bananas, just for you.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Dancing.gif\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9407\" alt=\"Dancing\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Dancing.gif?resize=170%2C141\" width=\"170\" height=\"141\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Dancing.gif?w=170&amp;ssl=1 170w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Dancing.gif?resize=150%2C124&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 170px) 100vw, 170px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Thatisall<\/p>\n<p><i><b>~The Angry Webmaster~<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<span id=\"post-ratings-10217\" class=\"post-ratings\" data-nonce=\"89f0461370\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_10217_1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"1 Star\" title=\"1 Star\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(10217, 1, '1 Star');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(1, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_10217_2\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_off.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"2 Stars\" title=\"2 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(10217, 2, '2 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(1, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_10217_3\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_off.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"3 Stars\" title=\"3 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(10217, 3, '3 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(1, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_10217_4\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_off.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"4 Stars\" title=\"4 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(10217, 4, '4 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(1, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_10217_5\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_off.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"5 Stars\" title=\"5 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(10217, 5, '5 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(1, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/> (<strong>2<\/strong> votes, average: <strong>1.00<\/strong> out of 5)<br \/><span class=\"post-ratings-text\" id=\"ratings_10217_text\"><\/span><\/span><span id=\"post-ratings-10217-loading\" class=\"post-ratings-loading\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/loading.gif?resize=16%2C16&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" class=\"post-ratings-image\" \/>Loading...<\/span>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good day all. there\u2019s been a lot of really bad news going on.
