Fabulous Fumble of the Week - Bill Bennett
Political Sports offers a new feature this week called Fabulous Fumble of the Week. Inspired by Bill Bennett's thoughtful comments regarding blacks and crime on his syndicated radio talk show.
"If you wanted to reduce crime, you could -- if that were your sole purpose -- you could abort every black baby in this country and your crime rate would go down.
"That would be an impossibly ridiculous and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down," he said.
We feel that Mr. Bennett comments warranted a whole new award. Given the current political climate and flurry of ridiculous political activity I think that we will be able to make this a weekly award, we shall see. Back to Bill though, whether the comment has any validity or not, it was an amazingly dumb thing to say, considering racism and problems that blacks have with the legal system in this country. As a major player with the conservative, Republicans, he really hurt the team with his play at a time when they need all the help they can get.
