Alisyn in the Greenroom

Open Blog Friday!

Here are some suggestions: 

– Weigh in on the story we talked about at 6:50 (edt).  It’s the plan in Eugene, Oregon to train restaurant workers and store clerks how to make African-American Olympic athletes feel welcome and comfortable this summer.  

– Do you know Barack Obama’s religion? 

– Hilary Clinton fight with Nancy Pelosi

– or questions for Howard Stern’s girlfriend?  (she’ll be on the show later)

Howard Stern the shock jock, or Howard K Stern the leech?

Comment by Alisyn Camerota

The shock jock. We’re having Beth Ostrosky on.

 
 
Comment by John O'Malley

– Do you know Barack Obama’s religion?

His religion is Christian. However, he belongs to an oxymoronic Church. It is neither “United” nor ‘Christlike” if you listen to his former Pastor.

Comment by Marshall

Doesn’t Barack belong to some type of cult that has re-written the bible and built Rev. Wright a 10 million dollar house?

Comment by Alisyn Camerota

Is this how urban myths get started?

 
 
Comment by Ray Stogner

This isn’t about any of the suggestions made, but with all the talk about Speaking english in America, from the story of the “out of the box” Judge to the restaurant story a few weeks ago, I was surprised to see you running a commercial a few minutes ago completely in CHINESE…???
gettin ready for the Olympics are we???? LOL

 
Comment by Adam

Eugene Oregon is proof that racism is not defeated in America. They are probably trying to pre-empt a law suit by a black person for not being treated the way he feels he should be treated.

 
Comment by AJ

Alisyn,

I need to preface this comment with a disclaimer: I know from a quick Google check that you’re married w/kids, and I have nothing but the utmost respect for that. I’m also 33, which would probably be a little young for you even if you weren’t.

Still, seriously…you’ve got to stop looking so hot in the morning. You and Gretchen both. You’re killing me. I can’t take it this early. It throws off my whole day.;)

You’re clearly a man wiser than your 33 years.

Good Morning Ms. Alisyn and bloggers one and all.

About time to start the weekend so Ms. Alisyn you can go home this afternoon, kick off your heels, put up your feet and relax. 

J/K, weekends are more likely harder work than the week days for you. I hope you do get some nice relaxing down time however.

Seems the closer to the time the further the Democrats are getting from a real solution to their problem.

Let’s review how the Democrats go into this mess. During primary voting all delegates are sorted out to the candidates by percent of popular vote, (leaving out the so-called super delegates), which is nothing like how the Electoral College works in the General Election.

Never at a loss for a fix to something that isn’t broken the Democrats put themselves in this position. But wait, it gets better.

Sen. Nelson, Fla has this to say; “Nelson noted that “the solution is very elusive,” but that, “If nothing else, this election has provided further evidence that our system is broken.””

Sen. Bill Nelson wants, in part, to abolish the Electoral College. Wait, isn’t that how his party got onto the mess they are in? Thanks but no thanks Senator, if no Electoral College standard causes a mess in your primary we can be pretty sure that it would do worse in the General Election.

In a rare display of courage(?), Senator Obama, who first never heard a nasty word from Rev. Wright, then might have heard some, to I just didn’t hear the worse ones, would now leave the church if Wright hadn’t retired.

Does anyone actually buy this?

Enjoy your weekend folks, especially you Ms. Alisyn.

WHO WAS THAT GUY THAT WANTED SPECIAL TREATMENT FOR THE BLACK ATHLETS???? I THINK THEY SHOULD BE TREATED LIKE EVERYBODY. SPECIAL TREATMENT WOULD MAKE THEM FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE. THEY SHOULD GET POOR SERVICE AND BAD FOOD LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE. THANKS JACK G MANCHESTER MI

 
Comment by Leonard LA, Cali

Ali,

VOTING
The Obama & Hillary battle is discouraging to me as a
voter. I don’t think I’ll be voting this year for any
political party. Someone just lost a vote.

RELIGION
We are the voters, we are the people who put
people in office. I look at it like a job offer. I need
the truth a background and credit check and to see
if he or she has a criminal record. Religion isn’t that
important if it doesn’t engage with your performance.

THE FIGHT
Nancy Pelosi and Hillary are both democrats, these ladies
need to get it together. Voters, are the only people that
should decide who and who isn’t offered a job in any
government position. If it wasn’t for us those dels wouldn’t
be who they are.

Comment by JJ

Hello Alisyn. I’m typing Live from the UK, it is raining and I am off work sick. Never done this before so thought I’d try. The whole Oregan thing seems a bit silly to me. Sounds the sort of thing we would do over here to be honest!

Anyway, great show and keep it up!

Comment by john

I am sure thhe people of Oregon would do fine. I think the media ( not you guys of course ) is probably involved with the evolution of this someway.

I dont really care about Mr. Obama’s religion.I do care about the skelatons ( sp?) in his closet.
Is this pastor stuff just the start ? i couldnt picture a president having ANYTHING to do with a pastor/priest/reverend at all !!!! This kind of talk is ………very bad

 
Comment by Will Penny

Ali,

1. The sensitivity training is wrong on so many levels. The town is statistically 20% African American (AA), therefore why do the citizens need training. It suggests a lot of things - are AA in Eugene different from other AAs; are White Americans in Eugene so insensitive that they need training. Bottom line is this exacerbates the racial divide. It lends credence to the idea that there is a “race industry.”

2. Barack’s is a member of the Trinity Church of Christ. However, I do not know if it is affilitated with the Church of Christ (don’t think so), the Baptists, or African-Methodist-Episcipal (AME). The problem is Hussein is suggestive of Islam.

3. Hill v. Nancy has the makings for the biggest cat fight of all time. If Don King does not produce the fight, how about you and me co-producing?

Re: your reply from yesterday’s blog. Do the media Ravens (not mavens) have your permission to kill submissions? Last week I spent more time than I should of writing replies only to never see them. IF I WIN THE F&F CONTEST PLEASE INCLUDE A 5 MINUTE HEART TO HEART WITH THEM.

Comment by Pat in Minnesota

Good Morning Alisyn,

You look amazing as always today!

I am a big Obama supporter. I think he would be a breath of fresh air for this country. I hope the assumption of him being Muslim doesn’t hurt bid to become President. For the record…I have nothing against Muslims. Too many people in this country associate terrorism to the Muslim religion. I’m Catholic and certainly respect the beliefs of other people.

However, the pastor that appeared on Fox last night (not sure what his name was), made remarks that amazed me. What type of religion accepts an indvidual like that to become a leader in their faith? Has that pastor ever heard of the 10 Commandments? Love thy neighbor as yourself!

Have a great day and a great weeekend!!!

Pat

SENSITIVITY?

Oh please, if they were hosting thousands of

Comment by Carol

There has been so much attention on Barack Obama and how he feels about Rev. Wright. It’s time we hear from Michelle Obama concerning Wright’s sermons and their influence in her life. I think America needs to hear her explanation since she aspires to the position of our First Lady. Would a true lady have sat through such angry, racially-charged profanity? And with her children?

 
Comment by pogger

Political correctness run amok again. It is similar to the concept that all Southerner’s are bigots and racists. I can assure you that if the local Mayor and City Council tried to pass such an ordnance here. There would be a special election held and a new group of Politicians in office. Because only two percent of the city is Afro-American they assume that the entire cities population has to undergo sensitivity training. I cannot wait until one of their citizens tries to give the Athletes directions to the only Soul Food restaurant in town. Many of us wonder what they put in the water in Oregon and Washington State…it must be a derivative of Mescaline or LSD. That is why I am enjoying this election cycle so much Alisyn it is proving that Liberals are just as biased as the people their always criticizing. Only someone who is biased themselves would assume that they have to correct the behavior or beliefs or other people. That they are the only ones who know how to properly treat other races, groups or nationalities.

Right pogger. Aren’t we past painting people with such broad brushstrokes?

I blog on Active Rain, it is a real estate network, and yesterday someone reminded us of Hilary Clinton and “Travel Gate.” Here is a link to his post with a video of Ann Coulter discussing it:

His title is “So you really want to know what happens when you cross the Clintons? Ask Billy!”

The fight between Hillary and Nancy should be a pay per view mud wrestling event.

 
Comment by Will@Ca.

Morning Alisyn !!
Great show as usual..So Brian’s 1/2 Italian.. He can’t be all bad then.
Oregan,,,I think the retail workers don’t need training to be normally polite and helpful. If they do need traing as how to treat customers they should be fired. Blacks are American’s and the sooner we all feel at ease and become color blind the better. I hope they treat other American’s properly.
Barack Religion,
No, I don’t know Barack’s religion however,,,, It seems to look and sound alot as a KKK meeting in the old days. Of course in reverse!
Hillary,
She will do everything and any thing to be the Dem candidate. It is going to show Her crying and clawing and threatening people..How can both Clinton’s lie and keep showing up in public?
Howard,,
I think he knows everything already,,,,,Just ask him!!

Comment by Sally Chaplin

I’m not sure how Barak can tell the truth as he says on The View when he clearly has been sitting in the pews of a church for 20 years where the truth has not been preached. How can he know what telling the truth is when so clearly he has not emersed himself in it?

 
Comment by Will Penny

COMMENT FOR “AJ”

Alisyn is not in her 30s! She is on the backside of her 20s (to paraphrase a old song). If you want to remain a blogger, suggest you cut the 30s stuff. She has media ravens that monitor the blog.

As for her and Gretchen’s HOTNESS. Get used to it. I completely understand. That infectious laugh, beautiful eyes, lovely figure, excellent repartee. I can’t go into describing GC (Ali is my favorite and I don’t want to alienate her).

I recommend switching from Coffee to green tea and surfing to a local channel that has really boorish news (we have a very boorish channel locally).

The Eugene Oregon thing has to be the most racist thing I’ve ever heard. These people are AMERICAN just treat them as you would any other American.

(sarcasm) After all this is Obama’s America, race isn’t relevant anymore. (/sarcasm)

But seriously, if race baiter like Rev. White can retire into a million dollar home, any member of any community can make it.

 
Comment by Frjim

In regard to Barack and his faith,
I find it ironic and a bit sad, that with all the Clinton Camp has done to tarnish this guy, it was at the end of the day, his own faith community that could put the kabash on his chance for the presidency? Ones faith community should unite…not divide…I read somewhere in there about “something being built on sand??”

 
Comment by Mark

Alisyn,

Who really cares about Obama’s religion or who Hillary is fighting with? What is important right now and what should be discussed is the color of your hair!

Let me preface my following statement by letting you know that I think you are the foxiest fox at Fox!!! It’s not just your looks, it’s you personality and your “COMMAND OF THE CAMERA”

With that said and after much consideration, I have decided you should be true to your “garlic nosed” ancestry and go back to being what I’m sure would be a stunning brunette.

What do you think…good idea…should you put it on the blog for discussion? I think it would be a home run!

The athletes comming to Oregon are the ones who should be schooled in minding their manners, then I am sure they will not have any promblems. This is panddering in its worst form.

 
Comment by Karen Benoit

I think that this is outragouse. What is wrong with our Country? This race issue is getting so out of hand. When is it ever going to stop? Black people are humans just like everyone else. God created us all and are all seen equal in his eyes. You just treat them like you would want to be treated. I’m not sure who makes a big issue out of this the most is it white people or the blacks them selves. We all have choices to make and what we make of ourselves. Lets stop blameing each other for what we may or may not have.

Comment by melissa gigax

If black people eat “soul food” what do white people eat? Would I be directed to a pancake house? The political correctness gone mad in Oregon offends me! Yes, sadly there are a few racists still around, but don’t insult the majority of us who have the ability to see a human being, not someone who’s skin is a different shade than ours. They need “insanity” training!

First, I’d like to comment on some grammar I’ve heard. I heard Steve saying something about “where it is at”, and it was like hearing fingernails scratch a blackboard. Proper grammar means more to me as an older person, and it still irritates me to hear improper use on television (or anywhere). Thanks, Hugh Rhodes

Comment by Leanne

Regarding Eugene, Oregon, and its “sensitivity” training: To assume that the black athletes (which will have come from many backgrounds) would be interested in “soul food” would be like directing any person of Asian ancestry to the local chinese restaurant. How offensive!

 
Comment by Rachel Gunby

Whatever happened to “when in Rome”? I am from the South - if I were to take a trip to New York, should New York hold training sessions for New Yorkers to learn Southern customs to make me feel good- or should I learn the customs of New York?

Diversity and sensitivity training has been around for a long time now but it seems no matter
how “trained” people become, the line keeps moving and nothing is good enough.

It is more about the behavior and attitude of someone and not the color of their skin. For example - it doesn’t matter whether Rev. Wright is black or white- his outrageous, loud, offensive behavior and words are not acceptable in a civilized society.
Some people would claim he is being criticized because of the color of his skin. I believe it is about behaviors, words, and standards that he considers acceptable in his world as a person.

 
Comment by Steve Hood

I’m convinced that Obama is an Islamic plant. Or at least sympathetic to their beliefs which still makes him dangerous.

 
Comment by Dave

I would like to see you, Steve, Gretchen, or Brian interview Mrs. Hillary Clinton. It would be fun to put her on the couch and ask her about the lies. Do you think this can happen?

Comment by Lisa

Since it is open blog Friday I would like to submit a question.
Question:
With the need for jobs, the need for renewable energy, and the need to reduce our dependance on foreign oil why are we not building Hydro-Electric Dams in this Great Nation?

Comment:
Would this not be at least an small but real effort in creating jobs, clean renewable energy, not to mention bosting the sale of hybrid cars (as an abundance of electric energy would be available). Frankly, if I were GM I would build these facilities myself, and give all of their Hybrid Car Buyers a special rate on the cost of the electricity for the people who live in the areas serviced by the Dams.

(If you think this is worth mentioning please forward to the McCain Campaign or someone in the Republican Party who is busy about the business of the Nation.)

 
Comment by Jeff Insco

Alisyn and Gretchen

It is really amazing that just about every time we sign any type of important document we see the disclaimer refrence we do not discriminate against any race,color,religion and on and on and on. However, who are we fooling? Ourselves? Race, along with other topics is always discriminatory. Now in order to make a certian ethnic group of everyday normal human beings feel welcome, we have to single them out and make it an issue to let them know…..What? They are different then someone of asian descent or latino or white? What ever happened to treating human beings just like you want to be treated without making ethnic backgroud an issue. Kindness and a smile would be a good moral start dont ya think? By-the-way…i love the fox and friends…you guys and girls are the greatest. Have a great F & F day. Jeff

I think as far as training employees to make sure African-American Olympic athletes feel welcome and comfortable this summer… business is about knowing your clients and so that you can take care for them.

 
Comment by June

I was not up for this segment on Eugene… I do believe that racisim will always be with us in one form or another….when I pick up my local newspaper …the majority of violent crimes are usually committed by African Americans or people of Hispanic descent…if you happen to be a person who lives in an area that is dominated by this type of segment then you can not help but be leary when one “sees” someone of color that they don’t know approaching them on the street…many young blacks do not have fathers or good role models in the home and many also use the race card as a means of entitlement to something they have not earned….I also believe that there is plenty of reverse racism to go around…..

 
Comment by Sherrie in Michigan

I agree with John….. we are all in big trouble if Obama is our next president!! As for the two of us here in Michigan were are tired of everything being blamed on race, the worst are the blacks against the whites, we owe them nothing for something that happened hundreds of years ago….we have all had mountains to climb, things to over come we just do it!!!!!! Great show we watch every morning!!! We just can’t wait till Page is back on the weekend!!!!!!!

Barack is a Christian… but… I’m not sure where in the bible it states that AIDS was designed by our government, or where we had 911 coming to us, or where the Jewish religion was a ‘gutteral’ religion… I thought being a Christian was being ‘Christ-like’… those statements by Barack’s pastor doesn’t seem Christ-like to me!

 
Comment by Kim

Good Morning Alisyn,

The story about Eugene, Oregon just blows my mind! Hasn’t everyone figured out that we are ALL human beings and there is NO need to treat anyone different just because someone has a skin color different that yours?? I just have to shake my head on this one…..I just don’t get it. I treat everyone the same …. with respect, courtesy and kindness. If I am not treated in the same manner, I just chalk it up to their personality….NOT their skin color.

 
Comment by L.C.

The candidates we have all have issues. What do we really have to choose from? Obama is backed by a pastore, who seems to have alot of hate, (by the way as a Christian aren’t you suppose to love thy enemy). Obama says he won’t break his ties with him. Hillary seems to have shell shock and can’t piece together all her flashbacks, and McCain can’t determine what is to happen for the next 100 years. So who do we have to pick from? This is going to be the hardest election year that I can remember. None of them speak about the issues. I am really disappointed in our political officials that all they can do is act like a bunch of bullies who can’t grow up and talk about the facts. What kind of example are they for the next generation. I don’t find it to be a positive one. I also think other countries look at this and think we are a country who really doesn’t have it all together.

 
Comment by Dianna

Good Morning Ali, Here are some things I have read about Obama.His Father (Barack Hussein Obama Sr.) a black Muslim from Nyangoma-kogel, Kenya, and Ann Dunham, a white ATHIEST from Wichita, Kansas. When Obama was two , his Parents divorced. His Mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a RADICAL Muslim from Indonesia.He attended a Muslim school in Jakarta. He also spent two years in a Catholic school.Lolo Soetoro the second husband of Obama’s mother introduced his stepson to Islam. Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi school in Jakarta. Wahabism is the RADICAL teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad aganist the western world. Obama joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to down play his Muslim background.Also keep in mind, when he was sworn into office he DID NOT use the Holy Bible, but instead the Koran. The Muslims have said they plan on destroying the US from the inside out…what better way to start than at the highest level-through the President of the United States, one of their own! How can he call himself black, when his Mother is white?

Comment by Alisyn Camerota

Dianna, let’s up your confusion. Journalists who’ve researched Obama’s background discovered that his grandfather and stepfather were Muslim but the latter only occasionally attended services at a mosque (not a radical). Obama was raised without any formal religion and found Christianity as an adult. Obama was born in the U.S. and spent most of his childhood in Hawaii. He lived for four years, when he was 6-10, in Indonesia. He did not go to a madrassa or study Wahabism. And he did not get sworn in to office using the Koran. Perhaps you’re thinking of Rep. Keith Ellison? Obama used a Bible and Vice President Dick Cheney oversaw the oath.

Great show as usual……

 
Comment by Gloria

I always thought that there was a separation of state and religion. However, during elections it does not seem to be applied. — I know, I know….religion determines the character of a person.

Obama is Christian. He is just going to the wrong church with pastors who preach equality with a sense of anger rather than love.

If you watch on TV, the sermons at other Christian churches, the pastors also get into a trance and talk and talk. Most of the times they preach how Jesus will punish and are prompt to ask for money.

The Catholic Christian is probably the most stable on preaching but the sermons could be taken as boring. Only the priest talks and everybody else listens. There is no interaction.

I would have liked to attend four different types of churches for Easter to see how the same message was transmitted, but in complete different ways.

– Note: what about the Clinton’s (ex) pastor found guilty of child molestation of a 7-year girl? Does his doing affect who the Clinton’s are?

I am a black American ( I detest the label ” African American”; I was was born in America), and resent what they are trying to accomplish in Eugene, Ore. Natural human behavior will decide how black athletes will interact in the mostly white community. What is wrong with these mental midgets. By the way, I live in the “People’s Republic of Portland, Oregon” area. The Liberals in this area, black and white, have driven me drink.

Love you a lot,

Gene

 
Comment by Chris Quimby

All this race controversy is eye-opening for many Americans. It shows who are the REAL racists in our country. The statement, “typical white person”, by Obama makes me realize that if I said that, I would be labeled a racist if the color was changed in this statement. Going to college at the height of colitical correctness, BU-95, makes me remember that thin-skinned non-traditional racists of color sometimes do not hold themselves to the same standard to which the racially sensitive people are held.

Comment by Doug

Barack Obama’s religion? I can’t claim to know what Barack really believes but it’s scary that he belonged (belongs) to such a church for such a long time. It is worrisome to me that some lessor minded church members may actually be brainwashed this pastor!

God Bless America? How about God Save
