Ok, so let's just be the first to admit it. The Democratic Nominee for President in 2008 is a Nig....!

Just listen to Hillary Clinton.

“I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on,” she said in the interview, citing an article by The Associated Press.

It “found how Senator Obama’s support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me.”

“There’s a pattern emerging here,” she said.

Oh, No she D'int!

Oh yeah. She did, but the funny part is that all she did her was repeat what the Press has been doing for months.
Just do a search on Yahoo News for "Obama, White Voters, Polls" and this is what you get.

Far from being a taboo subject, this issue has been constantly debated since both Rev. Wright and Bitter-gate.

How does Obama win back the Springer Vote? How is he going to appeal to the Double-Wide Demographic?

Don't look so shocked, we all know what we're talking about here. White, Working-class, un and under-educated. C'mon. Where do you really think these people can afford to live? A condo? Who do you think Rush Limbaugh is talking to day in and day out?

Some of my best friends used to enjoy semi-mobile living conditions. Really.

Anywho...

The sad part about this discussion isn't the fact that it's being discussed, it's that it's being portrayed as some kind of failure on Barack's part! instead of the very obvious implication that we still, even in the 21st Century, have some dumb-ass reactionary redneck's left in this country.

Again, don't get all offended - isn't that the core idea behind Jeff Foxworthy's entire career?

You might be a Redneck if...?

You won't vote for the Black man for President, even when he's the best candidate, he's won the popular vote, he's (practically) won the delegate vote and he's won the most states.

I thought that was the entire point behind CMT. and "Blue-Collar TV"?

Instead of asking, gee - what the hell is wrong with these people? - the press has been putting all the blame in Barack's lap?

And now that Hillary is echoing them, people are up in arms?

Oh my God, the Sherrif Nominee is a Nig...!

Just figuring that out now are ya? Very astute. But Guess what...

Oh my God, the Country's Full of Ignorant Red-Necks too...!

Which of course, according to the Press, would be Clinton's base.

But here's the really interesting thing that the Press and Hillary haven't said, something that our own DemfromCT pointed out last week.

Since July 2006, long before both Bitter-Gate and Rev. Wrong, Barack Obama's favorability has actually maintained a net 5 points gain in support from White Voters, Hillary has lost 36 points from the Black Vote.



I wonder why the Press doesn't ask "What in the world is Hillary going to do about her Black Voter problem?"

Instead we get all this blather about how we're supposed to expect Black people to vote not based on issues, or facts, but skin color.

Y'know - cause they're just naturally racist. They see everything through the prism of color. It's in their blood, don't cha know?

Never mind the fact that both Bill and Hillary used to have massive support Black Voters. Why doesn't the Press ask - What went wrong sour between Hill and Black people?

Oh wait, they did ask that and the answer was - Bill.

But White people, when they reject a perfectly good Black candidate it's got nothing to do with race - except for everything! You see, he's too leftist and radical (A hidden Black Panther), he's too elitist (Uppity!), Educated (Effete!), and he's too damn Muslim (Barack Hussein Obama - Farrakhan and Hamas' new Puppet President!) and we shouldn't bother to call them out on it. No, don't even think about it. Don't get them all riled up by saying they're "bitter" or anything...

That's like tossing raw meat at a starving dog.

Whatever you do - Don't Feed the White People! They Bite.

For those who can't take a hint: /Snark Off!

It's about time we started realizing that we have some big big problems in this country and it's not all the black peoples fault, nor is it all the white peoples fault. It's our fault if we let ourselves be manipulated in this way. If we fail to see the obvious. If we let injustice happen in our laps and just brush it away.

We need to admit that Racism for a minority of say 17% of Democratic Voters in the South has become acceptable. It's expected now.

We have to do better than this. This isn't just Barack's problem, it's a problem for all of us.

We need to get enraged and fight back not just because Hillary repeats this nonesense, we need to fight back All the Time when the media repeatedly attempts to pit us all against each other.

We need to fight fear with truth.

Black people are not slaves to their skin-tone, and White people - even the "uneducated" ones - are a lot smarter and a lot less racist and reactionary than everyone from ABC to FOX seems to think.

Barack can get the White Vote back, in fact he's already started to - and if Hillary keeps insulting her own "base", she's going to lose all of it.

1. I don't know why it's considered Obama's fault, either, that the more ignorant

whites don't support him (at least in comparison). There was even a Newsweek cover that trumpeted Obama's "Bubba Problem". I'm so fucking sick of "Bubba" deciding the direction of my country.

[marylanddem]

4. The bubbas will vote for McCain in any case

[TwilightGardener]

6. I agree. I don't know why Hillary thinks she'll keep them if she's the nominee.

[leeman67]

9. EXACTLY! when was the last time that "bubbas" voted

Democratic anyway?

[Triana]

11. Exactly. The whole meme is a pretentious ruse. n/t

[xxqqqzme]

19. Exactly - look who they gave us for the last 7+ years!

I am reminded of Michael Moore. I think it was part of the TV program he had for a very brief period. Moore made the observation that white America was supposed to be afraid of black America. He asked "Why?" No black guy had ever hurt him physically, emotionally, economically or socially. It was always a white guy. So why was he supposed to be afraid?

[iamthebandfanman]

20. i think people vote for idiots

cause they want to feel better about themselves.

people have egos so they vote in people like themselves or below themselves....
its stupid and makes no sense, but then again neither do the majority of the people in our country.

one would tend to believe youd want someone smarter than you in that position...

[GaVetRay]

27. Pardon me...

I think an extremely large number of people who vote are totally unaware of the issues and how "their" candidate feels about the issues. I would even be willing to bet that MOST people you meet on the street cannot even name their US senator or congressman. A great deal of people vote for a candidate because the candidate has promised to take from the rich. They think he will give it to them.

Try for yourself, ask an acquaintance or even a friend to name their 2 US senators and their congressman. I would be willing to bet most will not know. Hell, I have even asked who is the speaker of the house and they don't know. And the one topper. Ask who is the current "President of the US Senate". That is one where the odds are they will look at you and say "huh"?

Some people should be discouraged from voting. Don't ya think?

[iamjoy]

28. A Radio Station Here Did Something Similiar

This was years ago - a two question trivia quiz. The first, they would ask on air. The second, they would ask when the person called in and gave the correct answer to the first question. They wouldn't play any responses until some one answered both questions correctly.

The first question was, "Name the four Beatles."

The second question: name four people from our state (Florida) who representing us in Washington (or from our Congressional delegation).

Well, person after person got the first one easily enough only to utterly choke on the second.

It shows you where our priorities are.

[Truth2Tell]

33. because the candidate has promised to take from the rich ??

Don't you mean because the candidate has promised to cut their taxes Rush? The candidates promising to tax the rich and reign in the abuses and political thuggery of the rich (the few that there are) mostly appeal to higher information voters. The ignoramus crowd being discussed in this thread - the uneducated voters - are the ones fall for the "I'll cut your taxes" baloney.

Take a hard look at the education levels of your Republican buddies versus the average Democrat. Try your little "name the politician" test with 100 Democrats and 100 Republics. See who really needs to be discouraged from voting.

But thanks for stoppin' by Bubba. Have some pizza.

[MannyGoldstein]

2. Great Post, Thanks

And the funniest movie ever made!

[Tangerine LaBamba]

12. You took the words

right off of my keyboard.

Richard Pryor was one of the writers of "Blazing Saddles." Mel Brooks. How could it be anything but the funniest movie ever?

[annabanana]

3. EXCELLENT POST!

This is the bottom line on this crap. The air is so full of euphemisms that we can barely breathe. When we look at B*sh's negative ratings.. Just exactly
WHO is that last lonely 28% The backwash? (I wouldn't drink it)

[OneBlueSky]

5. Chevy Chase: "Ni***r" . . . Richard Pryor: "DEAD honky!" . . .

[pretzel4gore]

10. haha....excellent

racism is so potent a thing the only way to defang it is mockery, humourous mockery...well done! (too bad SNL has since became reaganighties)

[Tangerine LaBamba]

13. Ohhhhhh, thank you!

That's a classic. i haven't seen it for a long, long time. Brilliant.

[theoldman]

7. I laughed my ass off when I saw that movie.

I am glad that Mel Brooks was able to show our racial bigotry.

[AlinPA]

8. The scene from that movie is perfect at this time. How true it is in some parts of 'murca. nt

[tbyg52]

14. I'm assuming this is a takeoff on Blazing Saddles? (Dialup - it will be a while before I can watch)

If so, I have a small correction. It's "The Democratic candidate is a 'ni'"

I'm chuckling to myself just thinking of that movie. I adore Mel Brooks.

Edited to add:

Oh, it's *that* scene. I was picturing the one where the Harvey Korman character is pacing the floor discussing the race of the new sheriff with his crony, and somehow winds up with Cleavon Little.

[tbyg52]

37. Oops, I mean the Mel Brooks character. nt

[Fridays Child]

15. This is ugly, distasteful...

...and on the table, right where it should be--and you've done it with humor! Good job. I wish I could K&R this baby a hundred times!

[tularetom]

16. Make 'em proud to be rednecks and they'll never notice

How they are gettin fucked over just as bad as the blacks are.

What a concept! Play blacks and poor whites off against each other for political gain.

The blacks have figured out the scam. WTF is wrong with us whites?

[Eric Condon]

17. I saw a poster on here the other night say that "Obama's skin color is the least of his problems."

It only served to underline the whole point of this OP. I just remember thinking, Great, so being black is a "problem" now? Good to know.

[moedookie]

18. rednecks

never met a redneck that wasn't racist.

[morkalienfrommars]

21. offensive

That word shouldn't be typed anywhere. It's racist.

[jettison]

22. Hello

Captain Obvious.

[BattyDem]

23. EXCELLENT POST!!!

:applause:

[Politicalboi]

24. There's a new sheriff in town

I love that movie. Too bad it couldn't be played more on TV unedited. People need to see some of themselves in that movie and realize how ridiculous their fears or stereotypes are.

[GaVetRay]

25. Choices

I see our choices only as a young inexperienced man with a socialist platform, an elderly dishonest woman running on a wealth-envy platform, and a old geezer running on a national defense platform. It is not going to be much of a decision for me. Perhaps that will change when campaigning for the general election begins and when we know the running mates are. I will vote for the candidate who lets me keep more of my money in my pocket rather than redistribute it in exchange for votes.
In other words, I don't care what the skin color is, the sex or the age of the candidate.

[Truth2Tell]

34. Of course you do Bubba

You must be one of those suckers the GOP loves. But don't worry, yours is a common pathology. You imagine that maybe someday, just someday, you too will be in the top 1/2% income bracket and the low taxes on the super wealthy will somehow benefit you. Yet, in the meantime, you're just another working man gettin' screwed by your corporate slave masters - and beggin' for more. Man, how they love suckers like you.

[tbyg52]

36. You say "socialist platform" as if it's a *bad* thing.... ;->

Although it's not as "socialist" (read: reining in the corporations) as I would like.

[madrchsod]

26. the towns people excepted very one but the irish....

but everyone agreed the towns people had to expect the irish...

29. A Black Sheriff?

We have an African American gentleman running for sheriff here in Orange County. And I find myself thinking, "a black sheriff?"

A line from "Robin Hood: Men in Tights" - another Mel Brooks movie.

[ekwhite]

30. K&R for Blazing Saddles

That was a classic movie - shown too little because it is STILL controversial. Mel Brooks is a genius.

You are right that there is a lot of sub-rosa opposition to Barack Obama because of his skin tone. A black president who actually succeeds is a threat to the established order. The threat of a coalition of poor whites and poor blacks is a threat too big to be ignored by those who benefit from the status quo. They want the issue to continue to be race, instead of class.

[AznLittleBile]

31. Great

kickitty kick.

[AnnieBW]

32. Somebody really needs to take that clip

and put Obama's face over the Sheriff's.

Hmmmm... I think I have a project for a rainy afternoon tomorrow while hubby is at work. :evilgrin:

[tbyg52]

38. Oo, Oo! Do the scene where he's riding past the Count Basie Band! nt

[AxmxZ]

35. This is why...

whenever I hear about the possibility of Obama/Bloomberg, the Blazing Saddles theme song begins playing in my head. XD

Sheriff Bart/The Waco Kid!

[Time for change]

39. Yes -- I think that ANY rationalization about losing an election based on

the fact that some democraphic groups vote for (the preferred candidate) is probably meant to marginalize those who didn't.

[grantcart]

40. What ? No one told me.

I wonder what all of these rednecks who are getting their houses wiped out by the unusually high number of tornadoes think about global warming.

There has become a penchant in the media - championed by CNN - that it is somehow being fair to offer both sides to an argument.

Why in the hell are we having to suffer to both sides of a stupid argument.


This garbage usually starts with Blitzer saying, "Well some people say . . ."


Guess what Blitzer some people think the world is flat and some people think that the moon landings were staged.
