FireDogLake: “OBAMA ROCKED BY SCANDAL: Is Presidential Bid Over?”

FireDogLake, one of the most influential liberal blogs that is a trailblazer for its on-site coverage of the trial of Scooter Libby, as well as its steadfast support of former ambassador Joseph Wilson and Valerie Plame Wilson, writes tonight:

OBAMA ROCKED BY SCANDAL: Is Presidential Bid Over?

I know we’re not supposed to directly quote AP stories without paying them serious cash, but this story is so important and has such major ramifications for this election — which will of course decide the leader of the free world — that I feel it vital to get this information out there immediately. The AP is to be praised for their tough-minded professional journalism.

The author quotes the sexist, crude joke told by Mac, which we reported at No Quarter this morning. The author continues:

This is potentially game changing. Who would ever have expected such stuff from Bernie Mac? At any rate I don’t see how Obama can possibly win in November in the aftermath of this catastrophe.

However, this story does go some distance towards silencing another controversy that the Obama campaign has been desperate to quiet:

FireDogLake quotes the Associated Press story again:

Mac’s appearance was Obama’s first celebrity event of the evening. Later at a Lincoln Park nightclub, Obama spoke to a raucous crowd of music fans, who paid up to $500 per person to see a performance by Wilco lead singer Jeff Tweedy, and two other band members.

"Before these guys go, I want them to know that I had heard a rumor
that they had suggested that I had nothing by them on my iPod," Obama
said. "That is not true. I love Wilco."

Nevertheless, political observers are certain that the Obama camp is having a great deal of trouble staying on-message, and the candidate himself is prone to terrible gaffes just like "BernieGate." Mac is just the latest in the long line of embarrassing associates Obama has had to throw under the bus, giving rise to speculation that he is a flip-flopper who cannot produce a Sister Souljah moment. Without a doubt, John McCain has once again won the week.

(Emphasis mine.)

Here are NoQuarter’s two stories to date:

The CRITICAL FACTOR HERE is Obama’s brushing off of Bernie Mac’s overtly sexist jokes, one after another. This is what Obama told the crowd gathered at the fundraiser:

“… Bernie you got to clean up your act. This is a family affair… I’m just messing with you,” he said.

“I’m just messing with you”?

Obama is excusing Mac’s degradation of women?

Obama is excusing Mac’s degradation of Mac’s OWN WIFE?

Obama is excusing Mac’s crude jokes that have NO place in presidential politics?

Obama is excusing Mac’s remarks about “ho’s” and “menopause” — as a husband and father of two daughters — as well as a nation that is over half female?

Shakesville‘s Melissa McEwan hits the nail on the head:

The headline of this AP article is “Bernie Mac makes off-color joke at Obama event,” though it should be “Bernie Mac makes misogynistic joke at Obama event.” And, for my money, it’s far less newsworthy that Bernie Mac made the joke in the first place, than the fact that presumed Democratic nominee Barack Obama chided him for it, only to immediately assure Mac he was just kidding.

    For Obama to condone these types of remarks isn’t surprising. Didn’t he run his whole campaign the same way?

  • http://me414.wordpress.com/ Mary Ellen

    Man, I was excited that this was going to be big. I’m a 100% Hillary supporter, always have been. And I’ve jumped all over Obama on every single issue of is votes, his record, who he hangs out with and the sexist way in which he treated Hillary. But this Bernie Mac story isn’t going anywhere. If Obama himself stood up in front of the crowd and made sexist jokes, that would be a story…not this. Sorry.

    Not that I don’t think what B.Mac said was disgusting, it was…but that’s the nature of comedians like him and rap stars. Everyone takes for granted that they will hear this stuff and when they do, it’s no surprise.

    I think it’s extremely un-Presidential for Obama to hang out with these guys, but face it…this is the black culture that is accepted by society, especially now, with all this race crap going on in this campaign.

    The FISA vote was the story that should have destroyed him, along with the campaign finance flip and the NAFT flip, and the death penalty flip, and the faith based initiative thing…those are the big stories…not this.

The guy can’t string 2 words together unless they’re written on a teleprompter; he puts his foot in his mouth so ofter, he’s gonna start buying shoes from Smuckers. This guy is such a phoney baloney transparent fraud, the whole thing has got to be a gag! What do you wanna bet that just as he’s about to be nominated, somebody will pop out from behind a curtain and yell, “Gotcha! Smile, you’re all on Candid Camera!” Because, this is all just too ridiculous to believe otherwise….

    SCANDALOUS! you can tell how important this story is by the way everyone’s laughing it off. the only ones even taking it seriously are the PUMA fanatics like yourself.

  • http://www.anvp.wordpress.com soldier4hillary

    Excuse Me? “This is not black culture”. The point is if your attempting to attain the highest office in our land, you are not only and your family an open book. The comment made was uncalled for, and Senator Obama’s remark was all kinds of wrong.

    If your accused of being “sexist” and then make and support sexist comments, how are you going to president? The Democratic Party are idiots. They have, the Republicans, now, a soundbyte of Senator Obama stating “I am just messing with you”. Would not of been an issue if his remarks didnt apply to Bernie Macs words.

    As a black female, I am so tired of people always assuming bad behavior can be excused because its in our culture.

    Off topic, but funny as hell:

    Bush Homeland Security Aide Caught On Tape Offering High-Level Access For Donations To Bush Library:

    In an undercover video, Payne is seen promising to arrange a meeting for an exiled leader of Krygystan with Dick Cheney or Condoleezza Rice. (Not President Bush because “he doesn’t meet with a lot of former Presidents these days,” Payne says. “I don’t think he meets with hardly anyone.”) All it will take for him to arrange this high-level meeting, says Payne, is “a couple hundred thousand dollars, or something like that”

  • JB

    Look, Baracky is a hypocrite, what else is new?

    Any individual which benefits him and advances his career has a free pass on bad behavior of any kind – sexism, racism, anti-semitism, terrorism, etc. (All others do not, especially when criticizing them benefits Barack.)

    Until he gets called on it he will not dissociate himself from that person.

    Barack’s sexism is tangential; his central, defining trait is amoral narcissism.

  • hummingbirdv

    First and foremost he is one of the boys…I feel very, very sorry for his daughters and for all of us if we allow this arrogant, contemptuous, boy-man to Chicago his way into the White House. Leader of the free world. Now that is a truly scary thought.

  • btintaos

    I agree, Mary Ellen. I’m as blood-thisty as the next PUMA for Obama-globen, but this incident doesn’t quite cut it. It is, however, another inch in the erosion of his character and I like that aspect of it.

    Wow, you people are fucking idiots.

    I think what’s really depressing is that people treat this as satire. So called “progressive” people are mocking the sexism and misogyny and those who would speak out about it. Don’t bother your pretty heads about being called effin whores by Randi Rhodes or Ho’s by Bernie Mac. Obambi’s going to lower sea levels, end the war, and create cosmic change, so y’all just have to tolerate the abuse for the greater good.

    I don’t think so.

    But Firedog Lake at least showed some fear in the article’s title. If anything comes out of this, sexism should be unacceptable even from Obama and his thugs.

    As someone on FireDog Lake posted – “How many times can the Hindenburg crash?”

    Sorry I didn’t get the name, but whomever it is deserves full credit for the question!

    How many times can Obama eff up before we are ALL sick of him?! The man is a walking disaster. Rasmussen has the race virtually tied today. Not a good spot for Barack Almighty to be in, is it?

    Pathetic. What part of Commander in Chief and president dont people understand? They are held to a HIGHER STANDARD despite if the words never crossed obama’s lips it does not change the fact he is responsible. If it was me, I would asked about the routine to insure nothing would offend anyone.

    But if people have lowered the standard for Senator Obama and gave him his own set of rules to follow by, it does not represent change. If this was a mccain event you obama supporters would be screaming and bursting into flames all over the place foaming at the mouth like rabid dogs for Senator Mccain to concede.
    And dont put that shit on being “acceptable” in the black community because its bullshit. What it does show is bad judgement

    Sorry, I had to leave the computer for a minute…

    To answer 30 yr. dem. (and others)

    Mary Ellen,

    So you think we should just except it because a black man said it…we should just expect this kind of thing from black comedians?…Sorry I don’t and never have…I have always thought it was wrong for any race to make vulgar jokes about another..

    It is time for change….yes there is an audience for this kind of crap…but should there be?

    No, I didn’t say that we shoudl accept what Bernie Mac said. Listen, when a candidate has a fundraiser and they hire a comedian to warm up the crowd, they can’t be held responsible for everything the comedian says. Obama certainly wasn’t going to go on stage and chastise Bernie in front of the crowd, that wouldn’t be too smart. I’m sure that his campaign manager or he will ask Mac to tone it down next time, or he won’t ask for his help again.

    I’m not defending what was said and I’m not defending Bernie Mac. I’m saying that Obama, as much as I dislike him, isn’t going to take a hit on this. We can yell and scream and stomp our feet at every little thing, but that won’t get any attention. We need to aim at the big things, the votes he casts, his flip flops, stuff like that. The Bernie Mac thing is just a lot of white noise (not in the racial sense)…you know what I mean.

    I don’t think that the Swiftboaters caused Kerry’s ship to sink. I believe more that lots of people wanted Bush to finish the war he started. I remember the exit polls. Kerry lost the “Rust Belt” because those people didn’t trust him to be one of them or for them. So he lost the elections.

    NO small stuff will sink Obama. This is the greatest illusion ever. Obama believes himself and that he can win the GE. DNC wants to believe that with their unclean support he can win. The media – same. The republicans are happily waiting until it will be too late to nominate Hillary and than they will come out with their ‘canons’.

    (They already achieved something important: Hillary had tons of money. Now she is broke. This is not a good way to start a GE campaign.)

    The ONLY thing to finish Obama is not something big, it has to be something huge. Like birth certificate, criminal indictment in the Rezko scandal, or that he proves to be unable to raise money. If June was for him in the neighborhood of 10 million, it would help. If it is under that, than the DNC would start to scramble to get Hillary back in time.

    Now, when was the last time you were in the midst of a Presidential campaign? There is no way in hell that you can read and approve of a routine or introduction by someone who is hosting a fundraiser or a rally. Most of the time the candidates arrive at the last minute because they are coming from another event.

    I’m not an OBama supporter, btw. I’m just trying to look at this realistically. If we continue to jump on this kind of stuff, we are going to be considered a bunch of hysterical idiots who are looking for any small item to pin on Obama. There’s plenty of real stuff out there…this is just peanuts and not worth the publicity, IMO.

    People tend to remember the negatives over time. Obama is conditioning voters with his repeated offenses to believe that he isn’t POTUS material or trustworthy. The consequence of all his gaffes and associations may just very well catch up to him on election day – IF he makes it that far. God, maybe the lightbulb will go on at the convention!!

    If the DNC really wanted to show they were connected to reality, they would be making every effort to back away from Obama. First item of business: Get rid of Donna Brazile!

    Chinese Government is Top Foreign Holder of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac Bonds
    $376 Billion in Chinese Agency Bond Holdings Subject to Taxpayer Bailout Proposals According to FreedomWorks Analysts
    Last update: 11:08 a.m. EDT July 11, 2008

    WASHINGTON, Jul 11, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) — As politicians call for taxpayer bailouts and a government takeover of troubled mortgage lenders Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, FreedomWorks would like to point out that a bailout is a transfer of possibly hundreds of billions of U.S. tax dollars to sophisticated investors and governments overseas.
    The top five foreign holders of Freddie and Fannie long-term debt are China, Japan, the Cayman Islands, Luxembourg, and Belgium. In total foreign investors hold over $1.3 trillion in these agency bonds, according to the U.S. Treasury’s most recent “Report on Foreign Portfolio Holdings of U.S. Securities.”
    FreedomWorks President Matt Kibbe commented, “The prospectus for every GSE bond clearly states that it is not backed by the United States government. That’s why investors holding agency bonds already receive a significant risk premium over Treasuries.”
    “A bailout at this stage would be the worst possible outcome for American taxpayers and mortgage holders, who have been paying a risk premium to these foreign investors. It would change the rules of the game retroactively and would directly subsidize the risks taken by sophisticated foreign investors.”
    “A bailout of GSE bondholders would be perhaps the greatest taxpayer rip-off in American history. It is bad economics and you can be sure it is terrible politics.”

    Actually, the second largest, the largest since 1984:

    IndyMac is the second-largest financial institution failure in U.S. history, following only Continental Illinois Bank, which had assets of about $40 billion before it was shuttered in 1984.

    John McBush,

    You are really running out of air on that one!

    When McCain and Obama are tied today in the Rasmussen Reports, it looks as if Obama isn’t the sacred answer anymore.

    So. It’s time to retire the old McSame routine. In fact, don’t waste your time here as I’m sure you’re needed to whine and complain over at the HuffyPuffy Report where you can rub Arianna’s feet and be a slave to the kool-aid!

    Has anyone heard about the rehabs gearing up for kool-aid addiction therapy?

  • Seattle Moss

    This country need to be brought back to the center. One of the reasons I will never support Obama is because I have a little class and respect for women.
    Obama represents all the thugs and Gangsta rappers that are making America an ugly place.

    There is no way I can condone dumb behavior.

  • benjamin

    Problem is this. There are plenty of reasons for people to have preferred Hillary over Obama.
    But any Democrat who is still arguing against Obama now has only this kind of idiotic details to rely on to justify their hatred.
    And so I guarantee you the stupidity will continue.

People here have worked themselves up to such a frenzy that they have lost touch with common sense, reality and, more sadly, any sense of proportionality.

    Is it because women now have rights in Afganistan that Obama refuses to do anything to secure the forces fighting there?

    He is not a useless black man, he is a useless excuse of a human being!

  • benjamin

    He would nominate judges that would overturn Roe vs Wade.
    He would keep our troops in Iraq indefinitely.
    He would bloat the deficit to several hundred more millions to give MORE tax cuts to the wealthiests.
    He would privatize Social Security and would not do anything in regards to health care but to propose the same non-starter ideas that Bush offered which were “personal health accounts” (as if saving is what poor people who can’t afford health care have a problem with).
    He would keep the same Republicans that have run our country into the ground for the past eight years in power in the administration.

    Obama will not condone a black man using “ho” (prostitute) to describe black women, yet he gives national interviews against Imus when Imus used to term to describe a black woman’s basketball team.

    Is saying “it is no big deal to call women ‘prostitutes’” OK by you?

    Obama said in the 2007 ABC interview he would never appear again on Imus’ show.

    “I understand MSNBC has suspended Mr. Imus,” Obama told ABC News, “but I would also say that there’s nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up having that same attitude.”

    “He didn’t just cross the line,” Obama said. “He fed into some of the worst stereotypes that my two young daughters are having to deal with today in America.”

    If your high school son or daughter came home from high school and stated there teacher made the same remark in the classroom Bernie Mac made, do you think the teacher would keep there job?

    What if you were in church and you minister made the same remark Bernie Mac made, would it be inappropriate?

The fans (uh UHHBama Delegates)can demonstrate their adoration for the exalted leader. He can bask in the adoration of the crowd, walk around, wave, and lap up the loud applause. In the morning he can wake up and see that he is not wanted by most people, as either the Democratic nominee, or as the President of the United States. Maybe he can just go on having his rallies and inspirational meet-ups and let us get on with the serious business of running this country.

    It will be interesting to see if black women show any anger over this or if they set it aside for the sake of getting their messiah into the White hOuse..

    my 2cents-

    “The AP is to be praised for their tough-minded professional journalism.”

    Honestly in the last year I think I’ve written to AP about 3 times condemning them for their lack of professionalism and blatant bias in favor of Obama in their articles and lack of full coverage. Each time I showed them examples that were outrageous on their reporting.

    If they did something right this time, well that’s one so far in the last year…

    “Who would ever have expected such stuff from Bernie Mac?”

    In 2005, billionaire investor George Soros convened a group of 70 super-rich liberal donors in Phoenix to evaluate why their efforts to defeat President Bush had failed. One conclusion was that they needed to step up their long-term efforts to dominate key battleground states. The donors formed a group called Democracy Alliance to make grants in four areas: media, ideas, leadership and civic engagement. Since then, Democracy Alliance partners have donated over $100 million to key progressive organizations.

    Acorn’s political arm has endorsed Mr. Obama while its “voter education” arm has pledged to spend $35 million to register people this fall — despite a history of vote fraud scandals that have led to guilty pleas by many Acorn employees.

    The housing bill now before Congress would set up a slush fund for community organizations such as Acorn. But Acorn has gone quiet in its lobbying for the bill this week with the news that one of its employees — the brother of Acorn founder Wade Rathke — had stolen nearly $1 million from the group. Mr. Rathke decided not to alert law enforcement or the organization’s board, and kept his brother employed at Acorn until last month. “Is this the kind of group we want getting taxpayer money?” asks Rep. Ed Royce (R., Calif.)

    But Acorn may play, along with other liberal groups, a leading role in electing Mr. Obama. Such groups deserve a closer look now, before their influence and possibly their clout grow dramatically after the November election.

    As always…Obama is a flip flopper.

  • typical.white.person

    Obama supporters don’t support Obama per se, but support a movement. They see Obama’s brand of politics as an entirely different way of doing things. A CHANGE from the old way.

    The problem is, that the more of the Obama flip-flops that are exposed (FISA/Telecom Immunity, the Second Amendment, public financing of campaigns, Handgun Ban, Death Penalty, NAFTA, Decriminalizing Marijuana, the War in Iraq, illegal immigration, and the Cuba embargo along with several other things), the more people realize CHANGE was only a buzz word and The Messiah Obama is a fraud.

    So, Obama feigns outrage and calls for the firing of a Typical White Person (Imus) for saying “hos.” But, Obama minimizes it when a Typical Black Person (Mac) says “ho.” It is one more flip-flop to add to the list and it further bursts the bubble for many of his supporters.

    The AA supporters will probably vote for Obama no matter what, but the Whiteys and the Indys will flee quicker than Speedy Gonzales running from the Border Patrol.

    soldier4Hillary–

    For you Obama trolls that think things such as this is non issues, let me ask you this. If you stated what Bernie Mac did to four female coworkers if you were male, do you think you would remain on that job?

    If your high school son or daughter came home from high school and stated there teacher made the same remark in the classroom Bernie Mac made, do you think the teacher would keep there job?

    What if you were in church and you minister made the same remark Bernie Mac made, would it be inappropriate?

    I could give a damn about this but what I do care about is the fact that the president is the highest job in our country and it is diverse with all people in all shapes and backgrounds. Presidents are held to higher standards.

    Listen, just because someone doesn’t jump into the bandwagon and act with herd mentality and agree with every single post on this blog, doesn’t mean they are trolls or Obama supporters.

    You really should back off and quit acting like the imbeciles over at Obama’s website blog. The fact of the matter is you are railing about Bernie Mac and that’s fine, but Obama did not put those words in Bernie’s mouth and neither did he write his material.

    Grow up already and use your anger on the real issues. It’s people like you who make the rest of Hillary’s supporters look bad.

    ABC News’ Teddy Davis and Gregory Wallace Report: Former Secretaries of State James Baker and Warren Christopher recommended Tuesday that the 1973 War Powers Act be replaced by a new law that would provide for more meaningful consultation between the president and Congress.

    “It’s ineffective a best; unconstitutional at worst,” said Baker, referring to the 1973 resolution that Congress passed over President Nixon’s veto. “The rule of law is undermined and is damaged when the main statute in this vital policy area is regularly questioned or ignored.”

    The commission is calling on Congress to repeal the 1973 War Powers Act — key parts of which many scholars consider unconstitutional — and to replace it with a new statute providing that the president shall consult with Congress before deploying U.S. troops into combat operations lasting, or expected to last, more than a week. Congress would then have 30 days to approve or decline to approve military action — and declining a vote of approval would order the military action be ended.

    The War Powers Consultation Act of 2009 would create a 20-member Joint Congressional Consultation Committee which would include leaders of the House and Senate from both parties as well as the chair and ranking members of key House and Senate committees covering foreign affairs, armed services, intelligence, and appropriations.

    “I’m disgusted with him,” said Ms. Shade, an artist. “I can’t even listen to him anymore. He had such an opportunity, but all this ‘audacity of hope’ stuff, it’s blah, blah, blah. For all the independents he’s going to gain, he’s going to lose a lot of progressives.”

    Ok asan AFrican American Female I am going to enlighten you, and a few african americans as well. The thing that ticked people off about Imus was not the Ho comment it was the nappy headed part. If you don’t believe me, go to harlem and call a black female ho, and then go and call one nappy headed and see which get’s you beat down quicker.The difference may only be a couple of seconds but i promise you there is a difference. Imus had made comments about Venus and Serena needing to be in national geographic. Both girls were much younger than the girls at Ruckers but nothing was ever said. So trust me it was the “nappy” not the ho’. Also Imus has a long history of humiliating every one and get’s off on it. It was about time someone pinned him and his tongue to the wall. Berney make pretty much picks on his family or friends, he says somthing about his wife but I has to go home with her, and trust me if I ticked her off, she’s beating him in his head right now. Also Imus is white Berney Mac is black it doesn’t make it right but that’s just the way it is. Also because I am a nurse so jokes about menopause don’t offend me. Real women know that changes in our body are not shameful. For the last few years before I went to college my mother was going through menopause and our house was so cold, you could see your breath. Our church members would wear sweaters to our house. Blacks also laugh amoung ourselves at how cold whites tend to keep their homes and office buildings. Infact the next time you go to work, note how many blacks are wearing long sleaved shirts or jackets. it’s not true of everyone, because i prefer cold to hot, but their is noticiable difference, and It’s not because they love winter clothing. So while Berney may not be the cleanest comedian in the world I really think people are making far to0 much out of this.

    You know, if BO has issues with Whites, then fine. But it simply isn’t acceptable for him to hate Whites if he is running for president. One must be free of hatred for a particular race to be qualified for president.

    Using drugs to help cope is more acceptable for the average person. But to NEED drugs to cope and STILL have the gall to want to be POTUS is OUTRAGEOUS!

    Obama issued a formal statement later. It would have worked equally well if he’d made a joke and said something direct such as, “This message was not approved by me.” Alas, the man seems to be a bit too earnest, which gets him into hot water.

    Ultimately neither may hurt his chances in November, but at what cost to our civility?

    You will agree, Benjamin, if a knowledgeable, qualified Black man became president, it would discourage racism and break some barriers? If Hillary wins, there will be a change. Women will see themselves in a different light and will be less likely to accept the sexist treatment. Problem is Obama is unqualified and the mess he is creating, will discourage future qualified candidates.

    His campaign *hired* Bernie Mac to entertain the crowd well knowing what kind of jokes BMac tells. Like many comedians he has a cruel edge.

  • wodiej

    The problem is Obama is surrounded by a bunch of Bernie Mac’s. People that are shady, vulgar, racist, criminals and radicals. While the very young set apparently thinks it is perfectly ok to crack sexist jokes at a Presidential fundraiser no less, most of the voters will find this offensive at least and out of place at best. I personally don’t find it funny to make fun of something so serious not to mention it is another incident of men being sexist towards women. I don’t watch comedians-I think they make money at the expense of the feelings of others. Do I think it will effect Obama’s position a great deal? No because most of his supporters defend this type of behavior-that is why Obama is where he is.

  • kenoshaMarge

    The problem is that the FISA story isn’t all that important to many voters. They don’t see the significance to them and many buy into the Republican talking points that this law was needed to keep us safe. With 22 corrupt Democrats jumped on board the electorate simply doesn’t know what to believe.

    But there are a lot of women and some decent men that are flat out tired of the youth and black culture and comedians that find misogyny acceptable. That’s something they can understand and sink their teeth into.

    We’ve seen enough misogyny this election cycle to know how pervasive it is in our culture. We see it even thought our corrupt media ignores it.

    I think this story alone means nothing. added to all that has gone before it’s just one more straw on the camels back.

    After all that has come out about their golden child, I hope the DNC comes to their senses and nominates Hillary this August.

    What I find most interesting is the way the DNC changed the course of this election by propping Obama up there in the first place. Was this sexism at its finest?

    As a Michigander, I believe that the local DNC manipulated the primaries–after all, a Democratic Governor signed the bill that changed the date that the primaries were held. The DNC then allotted Obama votes that should have been given to Hillary although they could have held the primaries a second time to let people have their say.

    I believe Hillary would have cleanly won Michigan–but if she is out of it, I hope McCain takes the normally blue state. The DNC in Michigan is connected with the indicted Kwame Kilpatrick–the DNC has not forced him out of office while the state continues to whither away economically. (Michigan is one of a handful of states technically IN a recession.) The local Democrat politicians are voting against funding to prosecute our mayor.

    The only people who I know have witnessed this strong-arming are the readers of this site.

    Why hasn’t Obama asked Mayor Kilpatrick to step down before he completely bankrupts the state (by having taxpayers pay for his lawyers to protect him, etc.)? Why haven’t our local politicians strong-armed Kilpatrick into leaving as well as they did with Hillary? Why hasn’t our Governor rescued us?

    Sorry to be off topic but this is the only place that I’ve found that recognizes the bullying tactics for exactly what they are.

    The post IS satire. As to what satire ‘is’ well….folks here are supposed to be smart enough to figure that out.

    This post is weakened by the fact that the satirical nature of the FDL post is not recognized.

    I spend a lot of time at FDL and the shift in attitude there resulting from El Foldo’s atttempted FISA walk back was profound. Many, many commenters there just will not accept that and a large number contacted the Obambi ‘campaign’ and asked for refunds.

    The atmosphere there has, as I say, changed to the point where I can now pour it on about the empty suit that is Obambi. People are gettting educated about Kmeic, Rezko and soon I’ll be commenting on the strange ebb and flow of Obambi’s cash machine.

    Pretty obvious that the Republicans have played a large role in the creation of the ‘Magic Man’.

    But….

    The post referenced here is more about how FDL views the corporatist press than what the consensus is on Obambi.

    The verdict on his ‘Magicness’ over there is,

    ‘Think I’ll take a pass on this guy since I CANNOT TELL WHAT HE STANDS FOR…..

    you are so right with your comment. I am a white woman but I have never felt these kinds of remarks should just be brushed off as being the culture. IMUS was wrong, BernieMac is wrong and Obama is wrong. Obama knew or should have known the type of jokes Bernie Mac uses and never have invited him and then to half-ass chide him and follow up with ‘just messing with ya’ is totally unacceptable. I will not, now or ever view this type of comment as ok. What is wrong with people that they have become so accepting of this?

  • mimi

    30yr,

    And you can control this how?

    You can’t. The problem isn’t the material. Off color/blue material has always been used by certain comedians. The problem is the ‘mainstreaming’ of such material. It belongs in clubs and private situations. A joke of this nature had no place at a presidential candidate’s fundraiser. Bernie Mac proved he is an idiot. And comedians who go to formal events with their stand-by stock and trade jokes, expecting these jokes to be accepted and laughed at are really dumb, as are the candidates’ handlers who don’t take these people aside and lay the ground rules out for such events.

    I don’t support Obama. But I support free speech. The joke was wrong for the venue. I think pursuing this story as if it is on par with Watergate is going to take you down an avenue of ridicule and derision. I’d rather see follow-up on FISA and I’m particularly interested in the Birth Certificate just to name two.

    As far as this opening the door for racist jokes, well that goes under the karmic heading for me. I’ve always believed that you fight fire with fire. I don’t like the idea, but if that’s the only way to get Obama and his campaign’s attention well, let it fly. If you punch someone in the face, then expect to be punched back. I live by this axiom and nobody fucks with me.

    You miss-use your point. Comedienne Kate Clinton does a hilarious bit about menopause. From her it’s ok, because she’s joking about something she is experiencing. From Bernie Mack it’s offensive, because he’s simply mocking half of the world.

    That being said, I do understand why black comedians make fun of other blacks. It can be very funny if done correctly. BUT – it’s never right to call someone a Ho when you’re running for President of the United States. Ok, so Obama didn’t utter the words, but he condoned them with his comments.

    For a man who made a rather controversial speech about black men being responsible on Father’s Day, this cannot help but come off as Obama saying it’s ok to demean women. “Don’t abandon your children, but call your wife a Ho.”

    It is outrageous. It is clear Obama has no sense whatsoever of what misogyny is. That is because by nature he is a sexist and thus his threshold for what’s acceptable and what is not is not his but “adquired” at the spot by what his handlers tell him.

    I am nt surprised though. This is how he has behaved since day 1. He has necver ever utter a word of admonishment to the heavy sexist tactics of his supporters and his adoring media (Matthews’s comments for ex.) He stayed silent not because he wanted to win but because he saw nothing wrong. He liked HRC and her women supporters being treated like that.

    PUMA and justsaynodeal are ‘real enough’. Ten million plus smacker makes it so. They are on the defensive and have no where to go (since BO’s manages to offend his own base and has no plans to woo Hillary’s supporters.

    Is it in your DNA to always be the insufferable diplomat.

    Soldier,

    I agree with you. But ‘blue’ material has been around since the days of Red Foxx. It is a black thing, but it was NEVER mainstream black culture. It was something the adults laughed in an appropriate ‘after hours’ setting. And only on occasion.

    What’s happened in America is that once everyone began raising their children according to the ‘kids are people, too’ philosophy, the line of demarcation between adulthood and childhood disappeared. Parents now raise children without teaching them boundaries for fear of traumatizing them and hurting their feelings. The result is a society of uncivilized adults who have no understanding of decorum in public and social gatherings. And they all seem to be Obama supporters.

    Blacks were always particularly rigid with regard to good manners. I know I was raised that way. But this current generation fell in line with what the rest of America was doing. The end result: hip-hop which the white controlled entertainment industry has mainstreamed shamelessly for profit while degrading civilization.

    I’m not a fan of Mac. But even I would not have imagined he would have told a joke like this at a fundraiser for a presidential candidate no less. A lot of these high profile black entertainers today have been hand-picked by white Hollywood executives who still view blacks from the prism of Steppin Fetchit. I had given Mac the benefit of the doubt, but now I realize my instincts were right in the first place. He is a card-carrying, ignorant fool. And like far too many AAs this election cycle, he has jumped on the Obama wagon just to see a ‘black’ man elected POTUS without knowing much about the candidate, the process, our system of government and presidential politics.

    And the DNC is responsible for this travesty.

    I wish the election were tomorrow so I can vote for McCain and banish Obama back to corrupt Chicago bogeyland. I don’t know how much more of this national embarrassment I can take.

    And my fears are that it’s only going to get worse.

    Mary Ellen,

    I agree with everything you said except one thing: I do think candidates should be held responsible for what is said by a comedian that was asked to be part of a fundraiser. It’s called organization, judgment and responsibility. If Mac didn’t want to be censored or held to a ‘standard’ find someone else. The ‘ho’ jokes belong in a nightclub. I don’t care what happens there. The level of comedy will take care of itself by the numbers of people who patronize these comedians. I wouldn’t give Bernie Mac a dime. Nor would he be a part of my fundraiser.

    But you’re right on about everything else.

  • thetownecrier

    Right you are!

  • Newly Independent

    Thanks for the compliment!!

    Best candidate for President now:

    1st: Hillary Clinton
    2nd: John McCain
    LAST: Barack Obama

    Which part of this equation don’t you understand?

  • ginaswo still says no Uhhbama

    this is PERFECTLY illustrative of the double standard applied to racism and sexism throughout this campaign

    Bernie Mac makes jokes about black wives/sisters/mothers as hos-fine
    about menopausal women-fine

    if ANYONE made a joke about black males-it would be RACISM!! you cant even say black hole, or monkey in a tree, or devils food cake without some maroon claiming racism for Cripes sake

    but it is perfectly acceptable behavior for a POTUS candidates fundraiser to bash black wives and mothers, and sisters as hos, and bash all menopausal women in general

    it is disgraceful and if the blogger boyzz dont see it it is because they r guilty of the double standard…

    HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FRM WHAT IMUS SAID?? Except IMUS wasnt opening for a POTUS candidate, but his comedy show it was unacceptable to say HO what now AL SHARPTON?

    Where is the action network to protest the use of these words

    ohh it is for Bawack and a black man said it so it is okay huh?

    hypocrites.

  • http://dontcallmesweetie.blogspot.com/ Blu

    I think the rules of tasteful jokes should be clarified by those in the know.
    Tell me, when Don Imus called the Rutgers team “nappy-headed hos” was it the descriptive “nappy-headed” that caused the up-roar, the word “hos“ or are both OK if used separately but WRONG if combined? Or is it that Don Imus is a white man and as a white man should be more sensitive (morally superior) than Bernie Mac, a black man? Is a sexist joke funny when delivered by a black man because black women are inferior to black men? If a black man calls white women “hos” is that also funny or is it only funny when he insults his own race? Can a female comedian (Randi Rhodes) talk about “hos” or are these jokes only funny when delivered by men? Is the venue in which the jokes are told relevant, an adult night club as opposed to a political rally with children in the audience?
    Maybe Obama or his disciples could enlighten all of us on the rules so we will know when to laugh and when to be insulted.

    Oh get off it, Deep Truths. Mary Ellen was expressing an opinion. And I agree with her. And I don’t support Obama by no way shape or form.

    Women have been stomping their hysterical little feet about male-speak and its misogynistic tones from time immemorial. And where has that gotten us? That we are here having this discussion proves how much good it’s done. We have to thank our lucky stars that in at least in the workplace this stuff can be restricted. But everything else falls under Freedom of Speech.

    That’s why the remarks above from the women using the word ‘ho’ make sense to me. It’s the only way to fight this. People who name call generally don’t like being called names. Call Michelle Obama a ho enough times and believe me that will get traction.

    It really the way the Imus situation should have been handled. Imus apparently doesn’t look in the mirror. He’s a half-a-second off of looking like the ‘Crypt Keeper.’ He should not call anyone any kind of name with regard to appearance. Rush Limbaugh should be given the same treatment. Fatso who probably hasn’t seen his dick in many decades.

    So if the Obamas want the ho word restricted from being attributed to Michelle and his daughters, then they have to stand-up publicly and repudiate it. If they don’t, then expect more of the same leveled at them. The same with Bernie Mac. I won’t do it here, but I could level a slew of obscene things at Mac that would change his tune. For now, I’ll simply call him an idiot in public and leave it at that. I cannot fathom how anyone with half a brain would have thought that joke was acceptable in a fundraising venue for POTUS. Obama’s handlers should be horsewhipped for not vetting Mac’s material. Hasn’t the Democratic Party learned anything from the Whoopi Goldberg fiasco back in ’04 at a John Kerry fundraiser?

    And while we are on the subject, comedy has descended into an abyss in recent years. Somehow entertainers now believe if it’s a joke then it automatically gets a pass. I’m sure tomorrow on The View, Joy Behar will be defending Bernie Mac. These people want anything that comes out of their mouths to be treated as acceptable because they say it’s a joke. When in reality they are nothing more than not very smart people without manners and common sense who learned at an early age that a cheap shot could get them a laugh. Now all they want to do is cheap shot their way through life get paid and be celebrated for it. Fuck these no talented people!

    Bawdy humor belongs in nightclubs, bars and private social situations where adults can handle it the way they choose. Get up, ask for your money back from management, or tell someone to their face that something they said was offensive. If you are at a social or business event where formal rules of behavior apply then be smart enough to tailor your material for the audience. The proof was that the audience bristled when Mac told the joke as well they should. Frankly, they should have booed, hissed and embarrassed him for being so stupid. But that’s what happens when people are so star struck. Celebrities get way too special treatment when in reality they are no different than the rest of us.

    We need to STOP WORSHIPPING these people. Many are not worth the time of day and more than meets the eye with regard to how these people get to be famous in the first place.

    But more importantly, even if you are a Hillary supporter and despise Obama, you are entitled to voice an opinion and not be labeled a troll for goodness sakes.

    In just months flat, the Democrat “brand” has fallen as low as the Republican “brand.”

    Obamabots have failed miserably at trying to paint John McCain as the second coming of Bush. Especially since Obama has quickly converted himself into a Democrat “Bush” – flip-flopping on his key primary campaign promises, his justification of those flops, and his great arrogance.

    It is hurting Obama.

    But the mainstream media will not report the serious damage to Obama’s campaign.

    In my opinion, there are at least two big reason for this:

    a.) the MSM wants John McCain for the Presidency and doesn’t want to try to turn public opinion against Obama until the strongest candidate – Hillary Clinton – is officially out of the race in late August, or

    b.) the MSM wants Obama for the Presidency and doesn’t want to try to turn public opinion against him – period.

    Either way, the MSM are useless assholes. Because in spite of their unprofessionalism, the word is getting out about Obama through the most powerful & effective form of spreading information – word of mouth.

    From the get-go Ob has flip-flopped. He cannot have it both ways. He is not capable of being a leader. I will never condone the bullshit this *democratic party* has pulled, and it doesn’t offend me at all to be called republican.

    Has anyone here ever watched The Bernie Mac Show on a regular basis? How do you feel about the treatment of women on that show? Do you feel that one of the central premises of the show is to dismantle male-centric prejudices, including the idea that the man is the king of the roost, by juxtaposing his man’s man character with a strong, sensible, smart professional woman as his wife? What about the characters of the two girls? Strong and independent voices? Do the women’s voices ever triumph over the Mac character’s less enlightened portrayals? Do you see anything in this show that promotes rather that dismantles misogyny?

    If anybody here really gives a flying burrito what Bernie Mac’s portrayal of women is I heartily encourage you to start watching the show and balance that with a botched semi-performance at an inappropriate venue.

    Notice to politicians: Never, ever, ever, never, ever lead off an event with a comedian (Rich Little and Bob Hope might be exceptions), a satirist (no exceptions), a ventriloquist or a mime.

    Misogyny I Won’t Miss

    By Marie Cocco
    Thursday, May 15, 2008

    As the Democratic nomination contest slouches toward a close, it’s time to take stock of what I will not miss.

    I will not miss seeing advertisements for T-shirts that bear the slogan “Bros before Hos.” The shirts depict Barack Obama (the Bro) and Hillary Clinton (the Ho) and are widely sold on the Internet.

    I will not miss walking past airport concessions selling the Hillary Nutcracker, a device in which a pantsuit-clad Clinton doll opens her legs to reveal stainless-steel thighs that, well, bust nuts. I won’t miss television and newspaper stories that make light of the novelty item.

    I won’t miss episodes like the one in which liberal radio personality Randi Rhodes called Clinton a “big [expletive] whore” and said the same about former vice presidential nominee Geraldine Ferraro. Rhodes was appearing at an event sponsored by a San Francisco radio station, before an audience of appreciative Obama supporters — one of whom had promoted the evening on the presumptive Democratic nominee’s official campaign Web site.

    I won’t miss Citizens United Not Timid (no acronym, please), an anti-Clinton group founded by Republican guru Roger Stone.

    Political discourse will at last be free of jokes like this one, told last week by magician Penn Jillette on MSNBC: “Obama did great in February, and that’s because that was Black History Month. And now Hillary’s doing much better ’cause it’s White Bitch Month, right?” Co-hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski rebuked Jillette.

    I won’t miss political commentators (including National Public Radio political editor Ken Rudin and Andrew Sullivan, the columnist and blogger) who compare Clinton to the Glenn Close character in the movie “Fatal Attraction.” In the iconic 1987 film, Close played an independent New York woman who has an affair with a married man played by Michael Douglas. When the liaison ends, the jilted woman becomes a deranged, knife-wielding stalker who terrorizes the man’s blissful suburban family. Message: Psychopathic home-wrecker, begone.

    The airwaves will at last be free of comments that liken Clinton to a “she-devil” (Chris Matthews on MSNBC, who helpfully supplied an on-screen mock-up of Clinton sprouting horns). Or those who offer that she’s “looking like everyone’s first wife standing outside a probate court” (Mike Barnicle, also on MSNBC).

    But perhaps it is not wives who are so very problematic. Maybe it’s mothers. Because, after all, Clinton is more like “a scolding mother, talking down to a child” (Jack Cafferty on CNN).

    When all other images fail, there is one other I will not miss. That is, the down-to-the-basics, simplest one: “White women are a problem, that’s — you know, we all live with that” (William Kristol of Fox News).

    I won’t miss reading another treatise by a man or woman, of the left or right, who says that sexism has had not even a teeny-weeny bit of influence on the course of the Democratic campaign. To hint that sexism might possibly have had a minimal role is to play that risible “gender card.”

    Most of all, I will not miss the silence.

    I will not miss the deafening, depressing silence of Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean or other leading Democrats, who to my knowledge (with the exception of Sen. Barbara Mikulski of Maryland) haven’t publicly uttered a word of outrage at the unrelenting, sex-based hate that has been hurled at a former first lady and two-term senator from New York. Among those holding their tongues are hundreds of Democrats for whom Clinton has campaigned and raised millions of dollars. Don Imus endured more public ire from the political class when he insulted the Rutgers University women’s basketball team.

    Would the silence prevail if Obama’s likeness were put on a tap-dancing doll that was sold at airports? Would the media figures who dole out precious face time to these politicians be such pals if they’d compared Obama with a character in a blaxploitation film? And how would crude references to Obama’s sex organs play?

    There are many reasons Clinton is losing the nomination contest, some having to do with her strategic mistakes, others with the groundswell for “change.” But for all Clinton’s political blemishes, the darker stain that has been exposed is the hatred of women that is accepted as a part of our culture.

    The people who run this site are too stupid to recognize satire when they see it.

    You should change the title of this site to NO BRAINS

  • Newly Independent

    LOL!! Yeah – really “cool!”

  • Jason McLane

    Okay an actual insult is allowed but trying to start an actual intelligent debate is altered or deleted.

    Thanks

  • Deep Truths

    My point is that this isn’t about the joke itself, but Ho-bama’s sycophantic ‘I’m just messing with you man’ rejoinder. Ho-bama wasn’t the least bit interested that it offended women, but to be on the wrong side of the brother Bernie Mac, then he’s uncomfortable.

    Ho-bama is making me want to spit every time I see him.

    People who supposedly are against misogyny should learn from the supersensitive ‘everybody’s a racist’ reflexive reaction that Ho-bama and his minions have achieved. Perhaps things regarding dissing women because they’re women will also reach a level of hypersensitivity.

    In the meantime, jumping in the middle of a genuine firefight against the Ho-bama monster is a waste of time, let alone a waste of conciousness. Ho-bama deserves neither.

  • Newly Independent

    “I agree with just about all of the comments here. You guys are right, no black person should ever be President.”

    Either you’re a blatant bigot – or you’re a mindless Obamabot troll who’s pissed about most Hillary supporters (and many new former-Obama supporters) who will vote for John McCain in November.

    Either way, SCRAM.

  • Newly Independent

    “He Might be politically correct, unbiased, unsexist, unracist, and unislamist, and very patriotic. People ya’ gotta lighten up.”

    Sorry. Bernie Mac’s brand of humor DOESN’T belong in the political world. Just like Michael Richards’ brand of humor doesn’t. What if black folks had been told to “lighten up” over Mr. Richards’s comic act about two years ago?

    There are absolutely NO passes for racism in politics. And there absolutely should be NO passes for sexism either.

  • Newly Independent

    Lord – don’t get me started on Kilpatrick & half of the damn corrupt city council with that Synagro sludge deal! I’ll be here all night!

    The tape is worse: she actually said “Kill whitey”.
    Guiliani’s research dept. orignally discovered it, and guess who is McCain’s new campaign manager – yep, former Guiliani guy.

    Booyah!

    PUMA!

  • Donna Brazile

    No thank you.

    We’ll just take our “hormonal” dollars & votes to John McCain.

    That’ll soothe our nerves.

    OK. No one can be this witless.

    It was sarcasm. A joke. Parody. Satire.

    Get a clue, please.

  • Miss Otis

    I leaned Obama, but now I support Hillary.

    If I be so bold as to point out – if you support Hillary, then you should listen to her and support Obama over the very much worse alternative.

    Thank you.

  • chris joseph

    You need to find your way to the nearest exit, and get as far away from the Internet as possible for a few days.

    I don’t even have to hear what Bernie Mac’s “joke” was to know you’re taking yourselves way too seriously. Allow me to paraphrase Phil Gramm for a moment, because truly, you’re a bunch of whiners.

  • pkat

    Boy,

    It is obvious that this hass scared the InsaneHussein Campaign. There are way too may here trying to dispell and squelch the bad move they made to put this guy out there. How unpresidential to be associated with this stunt in especially in front of supporters when he needs $$ for his big mile high stadium idea.

    This reminds me of when Bush was running against Gore. This is dejavu.

    I hope that shit head was born in another country and is inelligible to run.

    That would truly be a sign from God.

  • Newly Independent

    “You people are so sad.”

    Like you Obamabots will be in November.

    “Hillary lost.”

    Wrong. She was cheated out of the nomination. Just like Gore was cheated out of the Presidency in 2000.

    “Its over.”

    It ain’t over by a LONG shot. WE will end things in November.

    “I am sorry for you.”

    Keep you cheap, false, lousy pity. We don’t need it. But YOU will – on November 5.

    “She lost and she is not coming back.”

    Again dumb one, Hillary was CHEATED by the DNC. And considering how Obama is imploding now, the Superdelegates may have a change of heart in late August. Otherwise, Hillary will be back in 2012. And WE will hire McCain in the meantime.

    “You spend so much energy trying to “get” Obama.”

    You’re damn right! WE’RE going to get Obama out of way for McCain in November. And he can go back to the Senate until 2010 and be voted OUT of the U.S. Senate by the fine citizens of Illinois.

    “You really worshipped Hillary.”

    Nope. Hillary is the best qualified and most electable frontrunner for the Presidency. And a fellow flawed – but decent – human being. One who was MALICIOUSLY mistreated and backstabbed during the primaries by fellow Democrats claiming to be her “friends.”

    Maybe it’s because many Hillary supporters actually HAVE a moral compass (unlike the idiots that post here in support of Obama) – but we HATE to see people with the best of intentions & genuine concern for America like the Clintons get shafted and treated like garbage by people who hate & envy them.

    “This election for you was and is not about your allegiance to America.”

    I wonder if you – a Barack (with his Rev. Wright “God damn America – it’s in the Bible!” church) and Michelle (“For the first time in my life, I’m proud to be an American”) supporter – said this dumb shit with a straight face.

    “It is about your allegiance to the Clintons.”

    Yep – and to other GOOD politicians like them who will stand up & fight for the welfare and rights of ALL Americans. NOT just special “elite” groups. Those kinds of politicians will ALWAYS have our allegiance!

  • Buzz Latte

    MIss Otis and Chris,

    Take a look at why FDL thought they had to do such a satire. Why would they do that? To punish PUMAS and NO Quarter supporters? To poke fun at them? To win them over to Obama”s side? To inject some humor in a tenuous situation?

    How about they did it because it was a deflection – a misinformation piece – to mask the REAL problem.

    America just isn’t that into Obama anymore.

    Note:

    12 % drop in popularity

    70 million shortfall from projected campaign donations for June.

    steady decrease in donations to Obama since MARCH

    tied with McCain in latest Rasmussen Report (Sat. 07/12/08)

    first time for McCain to be seen in a more favorable light than Obama

    Again today, Obama apologizes for wrong usage of words regarding Jeruselem

    The list goes on.

    Obama is YESTERDAY’S fad.

  • noproblama

    Yeah, and you two are brain trusts. That’s why you’re supporting a candidate who repeatedly states his biggest qualification for being president is his time as a community organizer.

    Who after two years on the campaign trail still only has a rudimentary grasp of the issues at best.

    But hey, no worries, he changes his position so often, why spend too much time trying to understand the last one?

    Can you spell “clueless”?

  • Newly Independent

    Obama is the WORST alternative. Period.

  • Newly Independent

    All hail John McCain – the next President of the United States.

    “Get over it.”

  • Newly Independent

    Thank you.

    Isn’t it interesting to see these brainless nitwits in Obama’s camp trying to – once again – pass off offensive and sexist language as “jokes?”

    And don’t you just love how these dummies have picked up a new word from their leader – “satire?” Those damn idiots aren’t sophisticated enough to understand what true “satire” is. Polly-parroting each other to death, hollering about “satire” and “get a sense of humor.”

    Obamabots – go sit your unoriginal, silly asses in corners somewhere and shut up. Until you can learn to think for yourselves.

  • Cassidy

    It would be nice if you all just came out and said “you ain’t gonna let no nigger be President.” At the very least you’d be honest.

    You don’t know how joyful it makes me to know that the majority of the regulars here have left the Democratic Party. Once the racist and panty-twisting drama queens are gone, we can actually get back to some Democratic values.

  • hillarygotsmokedbythebettercandidate

    the quicker you can delete this post, the better chance you have at getting the collective blogosphere to stop laughing at you. congrats, this is your “star wars kid” moment.

    well, that and the whitey thing…

  • http://dontcallmesweetie.blogspot.com/ Blu

    Neither you nor Obama represent Democratic values. In one short post you managed to bash gays and use the “n” word then speak of honesty and values. You need to leave OUR party!

  • Newly Independent

    I am African American, and THAT is offensive.

    How can you be supporting Obama – yet say some stupid shit like this:

    “It would be nice if you all just came out and said ‘you ain’t gonna let no nigger be President.’”

    Perhaps you and the rest of that ignorant peanut gallery over in Obamaland are trying to convince yourselves that you’re not a bunch of bigots by voting for the “cool Black guy.”

    Go crawl under a rock you bastard!!!

  • Steven Mather

    Ted,

    Under the heading, Life’s little ironies, it is worth checking out the comment section at Huffpo for the New Yorker Obama cover. Obama supporters know the cover is satirical, but they are outraged, regardless. How does the cover make you feel?

    We progressives are a rather earnest bunch. Here, we’re more sensitive to sexism because of what was done to Hillary and what continues to be done to her female supporters. Obama camp supporters are touchy on a broader and deeper range of topics.

  • http://dontcallmesweetie.blogspot.com/ Blu

    Seems the new messiah has declared gay bashing, misogyny and sexist jokes “cool” but racist remarks are not cool unless you are a black Obama supporter then you can say anything you want EXCEPT references to the messiah’s nuts meeting a sharp blade.
    I’m probably going to have to depend on the bots to tell me when to laugh ’cause I just don’t see the humor in any of this crap!

  • http://dontcallmesweetie.blogspot.com/ Blu

    Some of these obamadrones remind me of those caucasian men back in the 60′s who ran around with “Afro” hairdos. They thought they were so cool, so hip. Now their sons think it’s “cool” and “hip” to wear an Obama ’08 T-shirt, stick their noses up in the air and call anyone who doesn’t support Obama a racist.

  • grimjim

    All these racists on these pages. its funny. Its funny because these people who have supported or state that the support Obama, black people i mean, are assumed to only support him because he is black. So based on his race, and not the content of his character(becaues Obambi obviously has no character rite?), these Americans, blacks supporting the first ever viable black candidate, are obvious racists. I mean sure they voted for the Clintons, they probably voted for the local Democratic representative as well, white or black or red or yeller, sure. But they’re obviously voting for Obama because he’s black, and that makes them rabid racist black separatists who hate America. Doesn’t it? Because that’s the definition of racism, only supporting people who are the same skin color as you, while actively suppressing or working against those who are not of your particular race?

    My take on it is, true white racists, be they open or closeted, are looking to absolve themselves. Or to share the mantle of racist ignorance. “See We’re not as bad as everybody thinks! All them coloreds are racist too, look how they all flock to Obama. Obviously they aren’t using logic or critical thinking, because they aren’t supporting MY CANDIDATE. They must be voting for him because he’s black.” I know that you aren’t shamed. You don’t know shame. But you should be ashamed at how you cut your brothers in arms, your fellow Americans down.

  • Anon

    This is pc-stopo. A comedian told a bad joke. Get over it. Get over yourselves. Your overwrought outrage is ridiculous compared to the many extremely serious issues facing this country such as the fact that we have a war mongering war criminal of a president who is getting Americans killed by his incompetence and mismanagement this very day.
    Grow up!
    Oh and btway- consider this your warning: your life has been rated at least PG-13. Some inappropriateness and thoughtlessness may occur.

  • WildChild

    What’s the matter son? Is it killing you that woman bashing and BOBOwaffles travel the same road?

  • http://www.stopmyabortion.blogspot.com bargal20

    Yes, yes, you’re all so worked up about someone, who is not Obama, making sexist jokes.

    That’s why you’re threatening to vote for a guy who calls his wife a “trollop” and a “c*nt” in public, jokes about killing millions of Iranian women, is anti-choice and even can’t say whether he thinks it’s unfair that insurance companies will fund Viagra but not contraception.

    You’re feminists. Of course you are.

  • WildChild

    Divided government works. The republican will give the democratic congress the excuse they need to oppose the misogynist in office. You and Pelosi however will fawn all over BOBO’s misogyny and defend it. Just like you’re doing now.

  • http://www.stopmyabortion.blogspot.com bargal20

    WildChild,
    If divided government is your ideal, then you were obviously going to vote McCain all along. Which is also obvious of most of the muppets here. At least you now admit you were only feigning support for Clinton.

    You probably applauded when your preferred candidate, Senator McCain, refused to admonish suppporters who called Senator Clinton a “bitch”.

    You probably love the fact that McCain abandoned his crippled wife after having an affair with a much, much younger woman, who just happened to be rich enough to fund his political career.

  • WildChild

    No, I was going to vote for Hillary. She was the only liberal in the race. In the absence of a liberal to vote for the only defense a liberal has from the fringe is divided government. A republican in the White House will give the democratic congress the excuse they need to oppose the misogyny of the president. With BOBO in office, You and Pelosi will fawn all over BOBO’s misogyny and defend it. Just like you’re doing now.

  • Ted

    I don’t mind the NYer cover. It is clear to me it is satire. If I were a McCain supporter, I would be a bit embarrassed I suppose. And the people who read the NYer are sophisticated enough to understand the cover for what it is.

    The only problem is when that cover is reproduced elsewhere, hoping that ‘low information” voters will not understand it. As an example, how many NYer covers have been posted here? One. That one. I wonder why.

  • http://www.stopmyabortion.blogspot.com bargal20

    You’re a liar WildChild. You know you’re a liar, and I know you’re a liar. Everyone else knows you’re a liar.

    You’d throw America’s women under a bus to gratify your hatred of Obama.

    You’d cheer every forced pregnancy and every refused abortion.

    Fortunately your ratfornication is small potatoes at best.

    Wow, where were all you “Hillary supporters” now leaning towards McCain when McCain made that joke about Chelsea? Are you all too young to remember? Or how about the “how do we beat this bitch” episode? Seems to me that a joke actually told by a candidate trumps anything said by Bernie Mac.
