It looks like Chip Saltsman’s little CD gift is paying off: Four days after news broke that the former Tennessee GOP chairman had sent a CD that included a song titled “Barack the Magic Negro” to the RNC members he is courting, some of those officials are rallying around the embattled Saltsman, with a few […]
I posted about the story of a bus full of school kids chanting “assassinate Obama” in Idaho when it first happened a couple of weeks ago. It has gained some national attention, and now the mayor of the local town has apologized for what happened. That’s a nice gesture, but then I read further in […]
Finally we have someone to make an example of. I am sure there will be more down the road: Alie Kamara, a black Staten Island teenager, watched the results of the Nov. 4 election at a friend’s house. Soon after Barack Obama was declared the winner, he walked home alone to his house in the […]
I mentioned the other day that if John McCain didn’t come out and strongly denounce the actions of his supporters with their racist chants and threats of violence that he would be remembered as an extreme racist, regardless of the outcome next week. So far McCain hasn’t done anything and today the rhetoric of hate […]
Following the hoax that is now known as Ashley Todd, Keith Olbermann offers a sobering campaign comment asking John McCain to finally speak out on all this racism coming from his supporters and show he is a leader: John McCain does need to do this, not only for the country, but for John McCain. He […]
I have seen blurbs of this story but didn’t know where it was. I saw the post on AmericaBLOG and clicked on the YouTube and was shocked to see two very familiar newscaster faces. Turns out this sign of disgusting McCain/Palin Republican racism is only 10 miles from my house: Aravosis points out that there […]
Bob Cesca has thrown together a list of maniacs, serial killers and assassins who share something with McCain – the name John. So then why does the McCain campaign keep emphasizing Obama’s middle name is Hussein? Simple – they want to invoke a fear of terror in people. Again, it’s the ultimate form of racism. […]
It amazes me hearing Republicans go after John Lewis for his statement yesterday. His statement was 100% true. Republicans have been pushing the race card without actually saying it. What Republicans are trying to do though is say they aren’t pushing race as a black and white issue. Instead they are pushing race as an […]
When they are let off their leash, some Republicans can’t help but show their inner racism: The spokeswoman for the Republican Party in Nevada’s most populous county was removed from her post Saturday, after she said the Democratic Party made black people “dependent on the government.” Didi Lima, the Clark County GOP communications director, also […]
Lou Dobbs proclaims “my wife will love this” when looking at the racist Obama Waffles box. Will CNN let this racist stay on the air? (GottaLaff has more images of the racism this box exhibits. Think Progress also has more.)
