08 Apr 2004 Black Conservative to Discuss Rice Testimony on CNN

According to RushLimbaugh.com, CNN had Anita Hill on the network as an advance commentator in preparation for Dr. Condoleezza Rice’s testimony before the 9-11 Commission today.

What’s the connection between Dr. Rice and Professor Hill? Deep knowledge of national security issues? Both experts on terrorism? Both high-ranking White House staffers who know how the federal government works?

Nah! Both black women!

I can count on zero fingers how many white men were booked for a white man’s point of view when Dick Clarke testified — and rightly so. Good grief.

On a related topic, Project 21 member Mychal Massie participated in a CNN focus group about Dr. Rice’s appearance today. It will be broadcast on CNN at 8 PM and 2 AM tonight, April 8, Eastern.

I suppose CNN picked him in part because Myke is black, but Myke’s also been quite involved in efforts to support the war on terrorism (as the post directly below shows).
