Mitt Romney is what people who hate white people think of white people.

[Electric Monk]

A comedian guest Barack Obama impersonator (Reggie Brown?) just said that on Real Time With Bill Maher. I found it hilarious, and a meme worth passing on, so here ya go.

3. Why is it acceptable to joke about or make generalizations about "white people?"

Would it be funny if someone cracked jokes about a well known black politician, claiming that he or she's what people who hate black people think of black people?

What's the difference?

5. Obama impersonator Reggie Brown gets the hook at GOP event after mocking party presidential hopefuls

GOP leaders booted a Barack Obama impersonator off the stage at the Republican Leadership Conference after the funnyman took one too many potshots at the party's presidential hopefuls.

Impersonator Reggie Brown had his mic cut off and was escorted off the stage after he slammed Newt Gingrich, Mitt Romney, Tim Pawlenty and Michelle Bachman during his routine at the GOP event in New Orleans on Saturday.

Brown, who was hired by the Louisiana Republican Party to perform his spot-on impression of the President, skewered Gingrich's imploding campaign, saying that his consultants were "dropping faster than Anthony Weiner's pants in an AOL chatroom."

But the laughter soon turned to boos after the Comedian-in-Chief mocked Mitt Romney as a Mormon polygamist and said Tim Pawlenty couldn't be there because he was "having his foot surgically removed from his mouth."

This was the reason Maher had him on the show, so he could finish his set from the GOP convention.

Hopefully this adds some context missing from my OP.

7. I am a very white person, but I think it is funny. In fact, even some

white people will agree that Romney is a stereotype of a White person.

8. Same here, I think it's funny

and I'm white. :shrug:

9. Embodies all our very worst, holier-than-thou characteristics.

Proud, arrogant, takes his privileges for granted, cares little about anyone else. He probably doesn't hate people of other races, ethnicities, etc., not at all. Probably not at all a racist, just very certain that his culture, his views, his life are superior. For him, it just goes without saying.

Clownish when you think about it.

Here in California, he is or soon will be a member of yet another minority.

4. Its not that he is whiter than over boiled rice. He is an out of touch rich elitist

who tries to act a like joe six pack and get over with the real joes in order to stab the real joes in the back.

He is a snake in the grass. A lier and poser and waffler of the greatest magnitude.

[Nye Bevan]

6. OJ Simpson is what people who hate black people think of black people.

As long as we are "passing on memes".
