Freepers aren't even trying to hide their racist hatred of Obama now.


It seems that his change of venue for his
acceptance speech to Invesco Field and an
audience of 75,000, has got them completely
unglued..

1. Yeah, but did you see what the one person posted (a DUer perhaps?) ?
"McCain could lease a McDonald’s, and they wouldn’t even have to shut down the drive-thru."

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Funny how they are comparing Obama to Hitler...look in the mirror, folks!

7. They're a crazed fringe group not representative of conservatives as a whole at all.
The Internet sure empowers fringe groups comprised of loonies.

Nazis love to go on about the firebombing of Dresden as a crime against the Aryan race or something along those lines.

5. And Did Ya Know The Pope Is Catholic???
Edited on Mon Jul-07-08 09:47 AM by KharmaTrain
First of all, these goons have been playing the race card from Obama's first appearance on the public stage...the difference is the more popular he's become, the more overt their racism is. More specific, I suggest that a vast majority of those who will vote for Gramps will be doing so not because he's the best candidate (even the GOOP realizes that) or that Obama is too "librul" or inexperience...it's because he's a NigBlack!!!

This election reminds me of the Chicago Mayoral race of 1983 where Harold Washington defeated Jane Byrne and Richie Daley in a tough primary and then faced Repugnican Bernie Epton in the general...who used the slogan "Before It's Too Late".

For a long time the racism has been masked in "disagreements"...but sure as hell started coming out with the Reverend Wright situation. It gave the Rushbos of the world "license" to attack Obama because of his "radical preacher"...a hidden definition of "scary black man". These people have no shame and as they see their power slipping away will ramp up the racism and fear.

16. What I love is they accuse Black leaders of racism If they dare to
Edited on Mon Jul-07-08 10:12 AM by gbrooks

intimate that whites are racist.

Now FReepers are coming right out and
quoting Mein Kampf.

Hitler's claim that the Aryan Race is in danger
of being robbed and exterminated by Jews is
explicitly repeated in the FReeper fear that
"Obama will expropriate white businesses and give
them to blacks who don't have businesses."

That is a direct quote from a post on that thread.

19. They've Been Hyping "Reparations" For A While
It's been a whisper campaign on hate radio for months...the 40 acres and a mule thing.

This campaign goes back to Rushbo who has long claimed blacks have a "plantation mentality" and that Democrats have brainwashed them into some co-depenence...this then makes white males as the "target" for the "real" discrimination...a tune that's played well on hate radio ever since.

21. Classic Nazi role reversal. Cast the victim as the aggressor. Since passive

authoritarian personalities feel their status
threatened by minorities they look to a saviour
to deliver them. In the Germans case it was Hitler.

The interesting thing on the part of the US extreme
right wing is that they don't have a Hitler so they
project that role onto Obama.

We live in perilous times where anything could happen.

In some ways the present situation is more unpredictable
than the sixties.

22. Different Times Different Agendas
I'm careful in using third reich references about what's happening in this country. I had family that "dissapeared" in the late 30's and were victims of the holocoust and hear first hand stories of Russian progroms where towns were pillaged on a whim. We haven't reached that point.

The Repugnicans game is to play identity cards...try to make their target audience feel oppressed and they play that for votes. Be it gun owners (Democrats will take away your guns), fundies (gays will break up your marriage and force anal sex on you and then force you to have an abortion), racists (blacks are gonna take all your money and women) and middle-aged white males (Democrats are gonna take all your money and women and give it to gays, illegal Mexicans and blacks)...it's all fear, it's all simplified demonization. It's more Orwellian than Goebbels.

The 60's saw a big shift in the political dynamic. DHinMI has an excellent post up at DKOS http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/7/6/222829/1805/642/547515 that really hits this nail on the head. It's been political expediency driven by greed and privilidge that fuels the modern GOOP engine. targeting various groups, mostly whites, to revise history and blame all problems on "libruls" and thus Democrats. Democrats suffered due to success. Without Vietnam and then with lessening of racial tensions, many of my generation turned off on politics allowing the GOOP to build their messages for years with little to no response. The game worked well as long as they remained a minority in Congress and then in the 90's as the "opposition"...all that went to hell after the '00 "election" and then it was put up or shut up time and we got to finally see how a government that hated the concept of governing would operate.

Cheers...

43. My comparison wasn't explicit. The US extreme RW falls into the general pattern

of National Socialist ideology, without the socialism
of course. eg

1) Extreme nationalism and xenophobia

2) Appeal to a sense of moral, racial or national
superiority, while at the same time harboring
a sense of betrayal by internal forces in society.

3) The replacement of secular society with a quasi religious
notion of nation based on predestination and sacred
notions of chosen people or land. In National Socialist
language these notions were cashed out in terms of blood
and soil (blut und toll)

This is not to say that the US RW is explicitly National Socialist
but the US RW has a history of sympathy with National Socialism and
in the case of the Bush family a history of collaboration with the
Hitler regime. The Bush family history has yet to be recognized and
repudiated by Prescott Bush's ancestors. In fact they seem to follow
Prescott Bush's ideological leanings in perfect lock step.

51. I Prefer The Italian Model
This regime and Mussolini both shared the desire to create a military-industrial-corporate complex. They weren't into the sadistic machismo of the Third Reich. Hitler, initially, tried to emulate Musolini in Germany but became more of a Stalin.

The other common bond was how inept both the Fascists and this regime are...their corruption far outweight their efficiency. They both hid behind flags and symbolism that couldn't be questioned and had a controlled and complicit media that always served their interests. They also got into foreign adventurism for profit that was ill-concieved and poorly executed.

Hitler is what this nation could become if we go to the next level...if we stand by and allow a full police state to rise up and remove what remaining "freedoms" we have.

Cheers...

52. I'll go with that. The US as you say tracks more closely to Roman Imperial model

the Mussolini patterned Fascism after rather
than the psychotic racial suprematism of the
Third Reich.

14. Our local (Denver) RW morning talk show asshole, Peter Boyles was talking about it this morning..
Speaking about the "dirty Liberals" at the upcoming convention he proclaimed, "Stalin was right, kill them all."

Please don't call 630 KHOW with complaints. http://www.khow.com/pages/contact-index.html

He's completely freaked about the Dems putting on a massive, successful convention that he's starting to say things like this. He's criticizing every minute technical detail while at the same time taking friendly calls from Recreate68.org representatives. Apparently moving the speech to Invesco is the single worst thing anybody has ever done in the history of America. It's going to suck the entire Denver budget dry and destroy the careers of every Democrat in Colorado. It's actually kind of funny listening to him lose his mind day after day.

Now his show is about ignoring Republicans and trashing everything "Democrat" mixed in with a bit of anti-Mexican "illegal" bullshit. It's really just awful radio, very car wreck like.

I only listen because his station is tuned on my old fashioned clock radio.

15. Pot... meet Kettle.
May I just say, that graphic is OUTSTANDING.

Up until now, Obama to me has just been another garden-variety stealth liberal socialist. But with moves like this, in all seriousness, the man is starting to scare me. We’ve avoided cults of personality in this country’s Presidential history, for the most part, and I damn sure don’t want to see us start now. The sheer hubris of this is just mind-blowing.


Um... I guess this person hasn't heard of the right-wings adulation for Ronald Reagan.

Is this more of the "Hitler was a vegetarian and many liberals are vegetarians, ergo, many liberals are Nazis" bullshit (i.e. Hitler spoke in front of large crowds, and Obama is going to speak in front of a large crowd, blah blah blah)?

Do they fucking know what a Nazi is?

Everyone knows that commies are socialists. Everybody knows that the Nazis were the National Socialist German Workers Party (NSDAP) - therefore, Nazis were socialists. Ergo, Nazis were communists.

And they still hate communists.

See?
