Stephanopoulos:
OMG in
the news this week
Hillary
Clinton's e-mails and
police shootings
and
Ferguson is a totally racist town
Audience:
that covers it
Stephanopoulos:
also 50 years after
Selma
we have black President
Audience:
oh right that
Obama:
what they did here will
reverberate
through the ages –
they
proved that non-violent
change
is possible
Obama:
things have changed but
racism
hasn't vanished either
Stephanopoulos:
the DOJ issued a
report
calling
Ferguson a
corrupt town with an
armed
gang for a police force
Thomas:
Eric Holder is prepared to
dismantle
the Ferguson
police dept
Stephanopoulos:
wow
Thomas:
93% of all arrests were
of African-Americans
Stephanopoulos:
that seems high
Thomas:
the report
showed government
officials
sending racist
e-mails calling
Obama
a chimpanzee
Stephanopoulos:
that's not good
Obama:
it was a repressive and
abusive
situation and it's not an aberration
Thomas:
the DOJ
under Obama
has
investigated many towns finding
unconstitutional
practices

Stephanopoulos:
welcome Mayor
Knowles:
hi George
Stephanopoulos:
your town is
shockingly
racist
and corrupt and abusive
and criminal
Knowles:
look in our defense many
of
our police officers are part-time
employees
and full time idiots
Stephanopoulos:
are you prepared
to
dismantle the police dept or at
least
fire the police chief
Knowles:
no why should I
Stephanopoulos:
they're all
hopelessly corrupt and racist
Knowles:
we were singled out by the
federal
government it's very unfair
Stephanopoulos:
you think?
Knowles:
sure every town
around here is worse
Stephanopoulos:
that's
terrible!
Knowles:
well it's
true
Stephanopoulos:
will you at least
stop
breaking the law?
Knowles:
we'll take a look
at it
Stephanopoulos:
well good
for you
Knowles:
we're going to have the
first
civilian review
board in the St Louis area
Stephanopoulos:
the city manager
is
a crook
as well
Knowles:
we're going to read the
report and look at that
Stephanopoulos:
ok thanks for
coming
Knowles:
I have to break a few more laws now
Stephanopoulos:
good luck
[

Stephanopoulos:
welcome General
Powell
Powell:
good morning George
Stephanopoulos:
you're black –
what
do you think of Selma?
Powell:
the violence in
Selma was
so
shocking it changed America
Stephanopoulos:
amazing
Powell:
Selma gave the
President
and Congress
the urgency to pass
the Voting
Rights Act
Stephanopoulos:
the President says
we've
made progress – have we?
Powell:
of course – we
have a black
President
and I was secretary of state
Stephanopoulos:
good point
Powell:
I'm troubled by the
voting
restrictions
and what I say to my
black friends
is register and vote
these jackasses out of office
Stephanopoulos:
were you shocked
by Ferguson
report?
Powell:
I was shocked but
not surprised
Stephanopoulos:
sounds about right
Powell:
arresting people to
raise money is not right
Stephanopoulos:
true
Powell:
racism is not right
Stephanopoulos:
not it's not
Powell:
violating the
Constitution is not right
Stephanopoulos:
can't argue with
that
Powell:
shooting unarmed
people
who
pose no threat is not right
Stephanopoulos:
okay okay sheesh
Powell:
just saying George
Stephanopoulos:
you say there is
intolerance in the Republican party
Powell:
it's pretty much
their thing
Stephanopoulos:
If you say so
Powell:
hey
it was only 60 years
ago
we still had poll taxes
Stephanopoulos:
not that long ago
Powell:
but young people
today
understand
the beauty of diversity
Stephanopoulos:
that seems true
Powell:
but we also
have to
make
sure our government
is
not openly racist
Stephanopoulos:
aim high I say
Stephanopoulos:
would you vote for
Jeb?
Powell:
I worked for his
brother
and
I've rarely met a dumber person
Stephanopoulos:
is that right?
Powell:
I was his Secretary of State
and
voted for Barack Obama -
what does that tell you?
Stephanopoulos:
you were Secretary
of
State and had an e-mail account
Powell:
I modernized the
State Department
and
used e-mail but I didn't keep any
copies of them
Stephanopoulos:
so there's no record
at all?
Powell:
I don't know what
happened to them
Stephanopoulos:
well no problem them
Powell:
they're were all
pretty boring
anyway
– it just the days after 9/11
and
during the buildup to invading Iraq
Stephanopoulos:
oh well never mind
then
Stephanopoulos:
thanks for coming
Colin
Powell:
you're welcome
George
[

Stephanopoulos:
OMG HILLARY'S
E-MAILS!!!
Karl:
President Obama didn't even know
Clinton
had a private e-mail account!
Axelrod:
they're allowing the issue to fester!
Karl:
Clinton may violated State Dept rules
Karl:
remember the secret health
care
task force and the Rose law
firm
billing records?!
Stephanopoulos:
will this hurt
Clinton?
Halperin:
I used to think she was inevitable
but
now I've decided I don't like her
Stephanopoulos:
wow!
Halperin:
she's not going to be President!
Brazile:
private e-mail accounts
was
the norm for cabinet officials!
Stephanopoulos:
so why not get
out
ahead of this story?
Wallace:
this reminds me of how
the
media unfairly went
after
that
Saint Dick Cheney
Stephanopoulos:
the parallels are
uncanny
Wallace:
the is a media problem
because
they feel those e-mails
are
their property but voters don't care
Heileman:
I don't dislike her as
much as Mark Halperin
Stephanopoulos:
well he is a
conservative
and an idiot
Heileman:
on the other hand she
is
probably hiding something
Stephanopoulos:
is she doomed?
Heileman:
a lot of Democrats are
getting
that queasy feeling again
Halperin:
she withheld documents!
Stephanopoulos:
what should she do
now?
Brazile:
talk about the economy
Stephanopoulos:
the what?
Brazile:
Democrats are very
confident about 2016!!
Wallace:
Benghazi!!
