    Harry Belafonte takes America to church

    One of only a handful of speakers at Saturday's rally who weren't afraid to speak up against both parties, instead of shouting "Vote for Dems because the other guys are worse!"

    Harry Belafonte: Iraq & Afghanistan Wars Are "Immoral, Unconscionable and Unwinnable"

    "The President’s decision to escalate the war in that region alone costs the nation $33 billion," the legendary musician, actor and activist Harry Belafonte said at Saturday’s "One Nation Working Together" in Washington. "That sum of money could not only create 600,000 jobs here in America but would even leave us a few billion to start rebuilding our schools, our roads, our hospitals and affordable housing. It could also help to rebuild the lives of the thousands of our returning wounded veterans.
    Video of the full speach.

    Both Harry Belafonte and Bill Cosby have lost their marbles, why people still pay attention to them is beyond me. Do you guys remember like 2 years ago when the 2 of them teamed up and berated the black community in a "Gangsta rap" song they co-wrote and released?

    Yeah, fuck those guys.

    I admit, they are stuck in their old ways on some points, but I will take Harry or Bill over Sharpton anyday.
