Comment: I will never understand what women find so exciting about politicians.

Name: Taurusingr
Comment: nightshift:...It's the access to....POWER & MONEY!!! man!! Anything,Anyone who can give them what they don't have......they are tweeeeekin for THAT shyt!! Also...I knew this brotha was gonna be one of those who could "pass"!! Like a Colon Powell,Ralph Bunche lookin mo fo!! LOL!!!

Name: Taurusingr
Comment: nightshift:...Yeah!! She got her some "chocolate" alright!!....Some "WHITE" chococlate!!!!! I guess she still wanted to...."match"!!! LOL!!! Just think if Barack was a "darker" brotha!? I don't think HE would be ANYWHERE NEAR where he is NOW!!! It's that....fear & memory of what they did to the "dark ones"!! Plus...they feel less threatened by the lighter complexion, b/c it shows "shades" of ....THEM! (no pun intended!)

Name: nightshift
Comment: I loved come Colin Powell and it wasn't for the power baby. I'm just saying politics period..... from the presidency to Raykwan & Keesha's lemonade stand.... is lame. p.s. I think that pun was intended (LOL)

Name: blaquebaby
Comment: Well nightshift I do not know what it is about politicians, but I know one thing I hope Walters dont think her coming out with this tad bit is going to make me go out and buy her stanky memoir, although I hope I catch the View when they bring this "Hot Topic" up! It was the 70s they were on dat stuff! LMAO

Name: umph_umph_umph
Comment: hell he's so light he could pass for white... anywaaaay!

Name: MsBlake
Comment: Ahhhhhh its all making sense now.........when Obama was on the View, she was all over him, very touchy feely! Turns out there are alot of similarities between Obama and Edward Brooke. Both AA Senators, light skin, well spoken, well educated, same campaign message i.e. unifying folks and transcending race....the list goes on!! Obama obviously reminded her of Edward..It must have been a difficult time for both of them, cos being together would have ruined both of their careers cos of the race thing, but they were both wrong for carrying on behind his wife's back. (sigh).

Name: MsBlake
Comment: The man is still very much alive, I think he's about 88 years old now. He was probably hoping him n' Babs would take this secret to their graves. He is still very respected in the state where he was senator, cos he was like Obama in his heyday. This revelation may make his long time admirers look at him differently. Oh well.....

Name: huey
Comment: oppourtunistic old battleax,,,why now? oh, i get it, "look at me!! look at me! the rest of society is morally bankrupt and getting it in with every tom, harry dick whilst still married. i will show them all, BARBARA WAWA WAS GETTING IT IN WITH A NEGRO POLE-IS-STICKEN!! HA, HOW ABOUT THAT!! now im the queen of the dislocated moral compass hill"....gimme a break..

Name: HersheysKiss
Comment: Much like the 40y/o porn video of Jimi H., why would anyone care about a 40y/o affair? This man will be scarred from this and she'll come out smelling like a bouquet of roses! Anything for a few extra ratings. I hope her co-hosts take her to task on this. *Highly annoyed*

Name: GHank
Comment: And they say "dark-skinned" is in.....oh well..

Name: Grace12_34
Comment: I REALLY, REALLY liked Barbara Walters, until I read this article and did some snooping. This man was diagnosed with BREAST CANCER six years ago?! What kind of person publishes some crap like this?? She couldn't even wait until the man was DEAD???! Is she trying to finish him off with this mess????? Oprah Winfre just keeps on pulling it out of that hat ... SMH

Name: McNasty
Comment: Oh Puhleeze! This ain't news! The old broad has one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel and she wants folk to know she tipped on the black side. Psst babawawa - most folk already knew - as a matter of fact it's rumored this wasn't the only time. Baba liked the magic stick!lmao

Name: Train
Comment: Why can't some women learn to just shut the f'uck up? Some things you need to take to the grave and not pimp it to sell some dayum book. Back in the day in the 50's and 60's ppl kept shyt to themselves and now everybody wants the whole dayum world to know. There's some things in my life before I got married that my wife will never, ever know about because it doesn't make any sense talking about it now.

Name: fanteeking
Comment: This ain't no NEWS!!! EERRYBODY knew about this dating back in the day. Brooke was estranged from his Italian wife Remigia and was tipping around with Baraba Wa-Wa. I can just see Gilda Radnor laughing and hollering BARBARA-WAWA from heaven. LOL!!!

Name: MelodyCool
Comment: Women like her have are extremely whorish with an intense sense of entitlement just like the married astro-nut who drove 900 miles in space diapers to confront her rival.

Name: fanteeking
Comment: MelodyCool: I bet that car was stinking in that hot desert sun with those loaded diapers! LOL!!

Name: MDhornet
Comment: Seriously EUR. This is the main story? BARBARA WALTERS SLEPT WITH A BLACK MAN!!!!!! Stop the presses. Damn is every little thing that happens with black folks news?

Name: fanteeking
Comment: MsBlake: Mornin' Wer u be at yestiday? Obama came to Indiana U. 2 nites ago and filled the basketball arena---15,000 cheering, enthusiastic students. In spite of Rev. Brutus Wright's idiotic rants, Obama still has a chance in Hoosierland. Jus' thought you'd like ta-know.

Name: STONEY605
Comment: Even if She says it didn't happen Paul Moonley Richard Pryor's best friend said Richard and Barbara use to Fu@k all the time back in the 70's.

Name: FiveMore
Comment: Taurusingr, I been saying that for a long time now!If B.O. was a darker skinned man, he wouldn't recieve all of this praise and support. Barbara Walters is a crazy that gets on my last darn nerve!!!

Name: Renetta
Comment: So what. Leave our men alone.

Name: CrazzeeGyrl
Comment: Obama confronts racism in his speech and she felt relieved to tell of her affair with a black man. Then she hits up the black woman for an interview to discuss her affair with him. I guess BET will be next.

Name: CrazzeeGyrl
Comment: And, what's the point in revealing this affair now? I believe she was an undercover freak and still may be one. UGH!!!!!! I stopped liking her after all that crap went down with Starr Jones.

Name: Train
Comment: Is Sen. Brooke still married to his wife? I'm sure that she would be interested in this news of Barbara Wa Wa.

Name: nightshift
Comment: She musta had a hankering for the some spicy food when she met him, 'cause he looks like a cross between an old drunk looking Terrence Howard or a spanish chinaman.

Name: McNasty
Comment: lmao, lmao Nightshift you have nosenseatall!

Name: nightshift
Comment: She feels safe talking about it now b/c he's probably got alzheimers and damnit, he just don't remember to deny it.

Name: Grace12_34
Comment: Train, he is on his SECOND wife now. LOL@Nightshift

Name: Exmun
Comment: Train you ain't right with that comment "he looks like a cross between an old drunk looking Terrence Howard or a spanish chinaman."

Name: DCGG
Comment: Baaba Walters eat shyt and die bytch...don't nobody wanna hear your old war tales of how you got some black cock up in that old dusty cobweb filled sinkhole of yours...

Name: MelodyCool
Comment: STONEY605, it wouldn't surprise me if Richard Pryor was tapping Barbara and having her any which way he wanted. Of all women I find those from her group the most ho-ish. Don't be surprised if Barbara stated dating a black man now that it's just about over for her. There's an article in today's paper with a quote that Brooks used to tell Barbara she's the "oldest" woman he's ever been with. She said she felt like telling him "you're the blackest man I've ever been with". Brooks wrote a book a few years ago and really does not consider himself black:----> In this autobiography, Brooke details the challenges that confronted African American men of his generation and reveals his desire to be measured not as a black man in a white society but as an individual in a multiracial society.

Name: Southernbelle
Comment: No wonder she's so bitter. She's been missing her black stud all of these years LOL.

Name: bigchassie
Comment: NIGHTSHIFT>CTHELLYUP!!! THAT'S A GOOD ONE! LOL!

Name: MelodyCool
Comment: FiveMore, I agree with your comment to taurus. Deep down most black folks realize this but want to "pretend" otherwise.

Name: bigchassie
Comment: DAYUM YOU DCGG!! LOL!! YOU MADE ME SPIT OUT MY SLIMFAST! *Really ctheyellup*

Name: Stephanie
Comment: MelodyCool, damn you! **HOLLERING**

Name: MelodyCool
Comment: CrazzeeGyrl, I'm with you about Barbara. Many white women step out with black men when they have nothing else to lose in life. They always woo them with this tired line..."I should have done this a long time ago."

Name: MelodyCool
Comment: nightshift, I'm LMAO..."spanish chinaman"!!!!! I know "exactly" what you're talking about tho.

Name: QueenCityBee
Comment: This shyt was 40 years ago give up flucking break. Why is this the lead story any damn way. Scappin the bottom of the barrel uh EUR.

Name: fanteeking
Comment: MelodyCool: You jogged my memory!! I remember reading an article that dealt with Brooke's racial identity. He stated that in his Mass. community while growing up, "we didn't know what we were." Also, I remember when Brooke was speaking before congress, two white congressmen were sitting in an audio booth and didn't know that the mike was on. One commented to the other, "What kind of negro is this guy?" The other white man said, "He's an octoroon who is 1/8 Black and his kind was tutored, educated and favored by the slavemaster. That was big, embarassing news when Brooke was in Congress. Brooke saw himself as a "hipper" Ralph Bunche-type who really didn't identify with Africa-America. He had a whole lotta Tiger Woods in him. The Italians in Mass. approved his marriage to his Italiana wife Remigia but when they divorced they hated this "Tiger Woods" Brooke. I betcha Brooke ain't married to a Black woman 'cause he sees himself as an octooroon. LOL!!

Comment: Whatever happened to good old fashioned discretion? Dang! TMI and here's a quarter. Call someone who cares.

Name: nightshift
Comment: Fan, I think he's of portugese descent. They don't think they're black (like the dominicans). Here's an aside, my daughter has friend who is from cuba, and Yaphet Koto dark, she said all uppity-like that she wasn't black (like eeeuuww,she stepped in some shyt)....she was cuban. I asked if she stole something how she thought the accuser would describe her...she was silent and I laughed aaaawwwllll up in her face. WWoooooo, yeah, it was that good.

Name: justafu
Comment: LOL>>>never have been a big Barbara Wa-Wa fan but it's good to know that she's at least had a lil' color in her life...and seemingly enjoyed it too!!!

Name: justafu
Comment: PS>I agree whole-heartedly with what MelodyCool posted about women like Wa-Wa! Way to break it down sista! LOL!!!

Name: GranGran
Comment: Who cares????He was bi-racial anyway. Walters is just trying to sell her book. It's all about the benjamins as usual.

Name: queeniebunz
Comment: Y'all act like this "passing" thing is a new phenomenon. There are "black people" who will never admit to it who probably used to sweat bullets when a child was born afraid the child would have "negroid" features..."Please don't let this baby look like Uncle Jo Jo"...

Name: SpecialK
Comment: So Babs is down with the swirl! Big freakin deal. She ain't the first or the last.

Name: MOTHERSHIP
Comment: This here heffa has a book to sell "Audition", ain't that obvious to a duck??

Name: fanteeking
Comment: Nightshift: I speak Spanish & Portuguese and have so much fun confronting Africans who are trying to deny their African identity in any part of the world. I take them to the high African Yoruba court and charge them with ancestral shame & diasporic disrespect. I met two African-Mexican sisters who had afros and favored Angela Davis, they swore they were 100 % Mexicans. (No Senor, somos cien por cientos Mexicanas, no tenemos ni una traza de sangre Africana!!) In the Dominican Republic last summer, I argued with Dominicans who looked like us's but who swore they were mostly TAINO indians and didn't have a drop of African blood. Sammy Sosa said on a Chicago Spanish radio station when asked why he married a blonde white woman, he responded, "I wanted to improve the race" (Yo queria adelantar la raza) On top of that they felt superior to our Haitian siblings and looked down their noses. If you want to insult a Dominican, mistaken him/her for a Haitian, you gotta a cussing out comin'! They're a lot of Portuguese in Mass. and those Portuguese treated Africans in their colonies of Angola and Mozambique CRUELLY. I always thought Brooke wouldn't identify with African and you just edumucated me. Thanks!!

Comment: "I was certainly — I don't know — I was certainly whipped." "I was certainly — I don't know — I was certainly "feverish"." "I was certainly — I don't know — I was certainly walking on the dark side."

Name: fanteeking
Comment: Nightshift: I meet Cubans who look down their noses at Mexicans. Don't ask a Cuban if she/he is Mexican. They'll pitch a bytch!!! Also, Cubans try to speak a more Castillian Spanish that is spoken in Spain so to differentiate themselves from south and central america. There is a BLACK Brazilian educator named Abadias do Nascimiento who MAY be teaching in State University of New York (SUNY) who has written extensively on this phenomenan. Get his book.

Name: YLawdY
Comment: Hello to Mother and Special....

Name: MOTHERSHIP

Name: rre1239
Comment: i agree with fanteeking about the dominicans. i mistakenly call a dominican a hatian. boy, was he upset....dude, chill-out!

Name: TMan
Comment: Barbara Walters said Brotha put the Woo Woo in her Wah Wah, eh? LOL! This reminds me of that dialogue exchange in The Godfather between Woltz and Hagen. Woltz: "She was beautiful; she was young, she was innocent. She was the greatest piece of %*$ I ever had, and I had'em all over the world! And then Johnny Fontane comes along with his olive-oil voice, and guinea charm. And she runs off. She threw it all away just to make me look ridiculous! And a man in my position can't afford to be made to look ridiculous!" LOL! ;)

Name: nightshift
Comment: Fan' thanks for the tip but, I don't need a book with all fools running around here front'n!! I have to be honest with you..I get heated if jamaicans/haitians think I'm one of them. I tell them quick the only thing green in my pocket are dollah bills. My back ain't wet 'cause I don't swim. Crazy right?

Name: TMan
Comment: Baba WaWa Reading The Teleprompter On TV During Her Newscast In The 70s: "Good Evening, I'm Barbara Walters. (Damn, that brotha rocked my world last nite!) In tonight's news...(Umph! It's hot in here!)...onto politics...(Whew! Did I say say politics? That reminds me of - Oh My Dear! Mercy Me! Last Nigt! ).....and in closing...(Thank God this newscast is almost over!

Comment: Baba WaWa on The View: "Ladies, now you know the reason why I sat in that anchor chair so sweet in the 70s with that special twinkle in my eye!" Whoopie: "Barbara, was it good? Was it good to ya?" Sherri Shepherd: Yeah, girl! Fess up! Tell us the details! Once you go black you never go back! Okay?!? (Whoopie and Sherrie slap high fives) Elizabeth Hasselback: "You slept with a blackman? Really? Wow! What was that like?" Joy Behar: "Oh, Elizabeth, Shutup! You don't know what you're missing!

Name: TMan
Comment: Is it just me or is it amazing how white Hollywood and Beyond seems convinced that before they die that have to go on Oprah to tell the world what they did in their lives? Has Oprah replaced the church, preacher, priest and more? Do they call each other as stars and say "you have got to go on oprah and confess that?" LOL! Oprah gets more confessions in a week than your and my neighborhood churches combined! LOL!

Comment: My qualifier for being considered black in America has always been "if the KKK came at you, would they mistake you for one of them and keep it moving or would they string yo azz up, too?"

Comment: LOL@Queeniebunz

Name: cdplaya
Comment: Yeaaahh!!! Boyyyy!!! I didn't know Barbara WA-WA had a mandingo warrior in the mix. well you know the saying "Once you go BLACK you can never go BACK" She is now an Official Sista in Da HOOD!!

Name: Sexee
Comment: Why is this news?

Name: dport
Comment: It's new because she's coming out with a memoir of her life and this is one of the stories. Damn...looking at the calendar that would have been a daring time for her, or anyone, in the 70s to be involved in an interracial relationship. I don't see her as trying to capitalize but speaking on stories that will be read soon.

Name: Sexee
Comment: dport ~ no it's capitialism & sensationailism. It would of been news if she would have admitted it @ the time it occured.

Name: Taurusingr
Comment: Sexee:....AaaaaaaaaaaaaMennnnnnnnn! baby!!!!! Preach baby!!! sml!!

Name: cdplaya
Comment: Taking another look at Sen. Brooke he looks more like a nappy headed chinaman.

Name: goodnplenty1957
Comment: i tell ya...amazing how folks will post when it involves a black man and a white woman. all the negativity. but now when its a black woman / white man..now why is that?? ...so barbara was missing her chocolate chico-stick? well heck..whoopie is right there, get it from her!!!

Name: nightshift
Comment: Fan', I know this is late but, if you take a good look at both Sosa & Alex Rodriguez wives, you'll notice they are "bottle-blondes", if you get my drift. Especially A-rod, my girl's features look like folks I know on the block.

Name: Cali_Stunner
Comment: Um, simmer down Goodnplenty. The majority of the posters commented on individuals who will do anything to deny their black lineage and our desire for people to keep their personal business out of the street. I was not surprised you would pop on this board flapping your jaws in a desperate attempt to make this a black women bashing black men/white women relationships. Give it a rest! Jeez...

Name: Taurusingr
Comment: Cali-Stunner:....I think what goodnplenty1957 was referring to is....most of the post were negative about the MAN & how he looks etc..& Babs coming out with this info...... SO DAMN LATE, using this info to sell her damn book!, & said hardly NOTHING (if anything at all!!) about her BEING WITH a black man!! When it's the other way around???, like a few days ago with Halle Berry???...yall are just kissin all kinds of "A" talkin bout...Oh! that's so NICE, G'on GIRL, I'm so HAPPY for HER!! etc.......Where's the CRITICISM about HER or ANY OTHER WOMAN when THEY go....outside their race!!??? P.S.....And by the way, just b/c a brotha makes a/that statement, doesn't mean he is NOT CLAM when he is making it! Yall always GO THERE! The only people who need to "simmer down" is YALL, the next time their is a story about a BROTHA...going outside HIS race!!! Holla!

Name: Taurusingr
Comment: Cali_Stunner:...But I still luuuuuv yah!! Okaaay! sml!!

Name: MOTHERSHIP
Comment: Whaddup Queencity! I been chillin'!

Name: princessdrre
Comment: What's the purpose of this "revelation"? Really? Seriously? What's the friggin' purpose?

Name: MelodyCool
Comment: goodnplenty, Barbara was dealing with a "married" man and essentially broke up his marriage. There's a big difference between her and Halle Berry's situation.
