Is this a bit of good natured sarcasm from the one and only Gracie? You know what Juan Williams said is just common sense and he did say in the same statement that he doesn't feel right about this feeling.

Remember some years ago when Rev. Jesse Jackson was discussing violence he was all over the news because of this quote;

"I hate to admit it, but I have reached a stage in my life that if I am walking down a dark street late at night and I see that the person behind me is white, I subconsciously feel relieved." — Reverend Jesse Jackson

He later said his words were misconstrued, but it was too late. Because of his embarrassment this incident was quickly dropped from news outlets in deference. The point is that Rev. Jackson had a human reaction based on common sense gleaned from human experience.

Mr. Williams has already landed on his feet with a new expanded role in his job on Fox News. He's already better off. He should sue NPR for unlawful termination though. I can't imagine him losing that case.


Update: Apparently Mr. Williams new contract with FOX is for a reported 2 Million Dollars annually. Not too shabby a rebound.
