Ancient And Pathetic Liberal Moron Alert

Oh, just how rich is this? Old morons never die, they just fade away until someone gives them a new soapbox at HuffPo.

The sending of a Christmas greeting by Chip Saltsman to the members of the Republican National Committee that includes a recording of the so-called parody, “Barack the Magic Negro” is not only offensive, it is shocking and saddening in the extreme. It flies in the face of America’s deeply held hope for a new era in which common ground and mutual respect characterize the exchanges between our national leaders.

I and my co-writer of “Puff,” Lenny Lipton, have been eagerly awaiting an end to the mean-spiritedness, outright disrespect and bigotry that was commonplace prior to this last presidential election.

As Michelle points out:

All of sudden — after eight years of “F**k Bush” bumper stickers and “Kill Bush” assassination chic and Bush-or-Chimp parodies — the left is concerned about insulting the office of the Presidency?

 Now, they are concerned with protecting the dignity of the office and with forging “commong(sic) ground and mutual respect?”

Of course they are. Just like all good fascists - no problem, as long as they believe they are getting their way. Even if you don't agree about the issue of the song parody (ftr - I have no problem with it), this liberal idiot deserves a smack down if only on principle alone. Was he crying for civility during the Bush years? Or just off blowing some other smoke up his butt like the clueless little puff that he is?

What a weak loser. The idiot should go off and save the climate, or something. Bleh!

"What a weak loser."

Wrong. You might disagree but he/she is a winner. In a landslide.

And your own are denouncing it. A lot.

By all means go for it if your like the recording. It will only further sink the GOP.

[Totally Heterosexual Conservative]

Of course you have no problem with it. You're just one of an endless parade of winger bloggers assisting in the slow suicide of the GOP, and whatever the hell the "conservative movement" is / was, by deciding that the "way forward" for wingerism is to make it more clear the inherent and institutional bigotry and know-nothingness of the GOP. That you, Malkin, etc. are too stupid to figure out the cause of your collective death (while it is happening loudly and publicly in real time) is hilarious and simultaneously sad.

But mostly hilarious.

[JustOneMan]

But he is a "Magic Negro" isnt he????

[jharp]

"But he is a "Magic Negro" isnt he?"

Believing in spells and magic is a wingnut trait.

Us lefties know he is extraordinarily bright and a accomplished. But he's just an ordinary man.

[Totally Heterosexual Conservative]

When Obama begins turing wingnuts into literate, fit, productive, and most importantly - bathed - members of society, I will believe that he is magical.

[Todd]

I'm sorry. It is offensive, and not at all surprising considering the rhetoric on youtube videos from McCain and Palin rallies. Sore losers with no class.

[William Teach]

One of the funniest things about the parody that so many do not get is that it is making more fun of Al Sharpton then Obama. And I have seen several Conservatives freaking out on the song around the 'Net. Some of them are the same people who complain that the Left is mega-mean and the GOP is not fighting back.

Heh.

[daveinboca]

Of course, lost in the howling at the moon from all sides, including the long-dead Yarrow [who resurrected this corpse?], is the fact that the original column calling Barack Obama was in the Lost Angels Times back in early 2007, and this parody makes fun of the whacko-blackos who say that BHO isn't black enough and doesn't have slave ancestors [but does have slaveholder ancestors on his mama's side!]

The HuffPuff brigade has resurrected Yarrow's corpse, now let them proclaim a new religion!

[ET]

Just go back a few months and recall the hatred and bigotry aimed at Sarah Palin by the lefties. They can dish it out but they can't take it. And, of course, they have no sense of humor.

Me? I don't judge a man by the color of his skin. I judge him by his accomplishments and the company he keeps. Oh, and by the size of his ears.

[jharp]

"recall the hatred and bigotry aimed at Sarah Palin"

Don't you mean pointing out the fact that she was ignorant and totally unqualified?

[Lala]

from Wiki

The magical negro (sometimes called the mystical negro or magic negro) is a supporting, often mystical stock character in fiction who, by use of special insight or powers, helps the white protagonist get out of trouble. The word negro, now considered by many as archaic and offensive, is used intentionally to suggest that the archetype is a racist throwback, an update of the "Sambo" and "savage other" stereotypes.[1] Spike Lee popularized the term, deriding the archetype of the "super-duper magical negro" in 2001 while discussing films with students at Washington State University and at Yale University.[2][3]

Yarrow the child molester -

excerpt -

The folksinger pleaded guilty to taking "immoral and improper liberties" with a 14-year-old girl back in 1970.

As reported at the time, the girl and her 17-year-old sister went to Yarrow's hotel room seeking an autograph. Yarrow answered the door naked and made sexual advances that stopped short of intercourse. The 14-year-old resisted his advances but did not call for help. Yarrow served three months of a one- to three-year prison sentence and was pardoned by Carter in 1981.

The singer has acknowledged the incident as "the most terrible mistake I have ever made."

--Don't you mean pointing out the fact that she was (he is) ignorant and totally unqualified?

That's exactly what we are doing to your messiah...but we did it with comedy. Something you angry libs don't get.

Try to pick the enlightened party of the higher ground:

A. Democrats pursue a coordinated campaign of character assassination against a vice presidential candidate.

OR

B. Some Republican releases a parody of an old newspaper article that has the word "negro" in it.

Get over yourselves, lefties.

[Lala]

Caroline Kennedy, Harvard graduate, said "you know" 142 times in an interview.

[Bill G]

And leave us not forget how that darling of the left, Terry Kerry, handed out "Asses of Evil" buttons as party favors.
To iterate Mr. Teach, the song was a shot at the Lefties complaining about BHO, not an insult to him.

[jharp]

"That's exactly what we are doing to your messiah...but we did it with comedy."

No. You did it with race.

"Democrats pursue a coordinated campaign of character assassination"

I don't think so. Is making everyone aware of the ignorance of a VP candidate a "character assassination"? Not in my book. Just watch the Katie Couric interview again. And watch Palin's "non debate" with Biden.

If you accuse the left of "character assassination" then you have to include Palin as a co conspirator.

[William Teach]

But when the Right points out that Obama has even less qualifications to be the top of the ticket, that was called racism by you lefties, jharp. The media sent hundreds of folks to Alaska to dig up dirt on Palin, yet ignored Wright, Pflager, Rezko, etc and so on. How do you reconcile that, jharp. It was character assassination on Palin.

[jharp]

Mr. Teach,

Both sides dug up all they could on both candidates. Which I consider doing their job as long as they stick to the truth.

The issue here is "Barack the Magic Negro". I don't recall any songs titled "Palin the Ignorant Racist Cracker".

It has nothing to do with challenging either one of their qualifications.

[Fred Beloit]

"The issue here is "Barack the Magic Negro".

No it ain't. The issue here is that you can't justify the outrageous attacks upon the President, Vice-President, and Palin and at the same time outrageously attack a parody from the other side of the aisle.

[jharp]

"The issue here is that you can't justify the outrageous attacks upon the President, Vice-President, and Palin and at the same time outrageously attack a parody from the other side of the aisle."

I don't think you get it Fred.

The parody you speak of was sent by a candidate for the RNC chair to promote his candidacy.

It is quite different.

[templar knight]

Oh, yeah, we get it, harpy.

Any criticism, justified or not, of the Obama is racist, and therefore not allowed.

Any character assassinations from the Left are just fine and dandy. Throw in the vilest behavior possible with respect to the Presidency and George Bush, and you have the liberals and their hypocrisy. As far as I'm concerned you hypocritical assholes can take a hike.

And I'll tell you what, tool. When you can show me idiots marching around our cities with signs calling for Obama to be shot, beheaded and knifed, why don't you get back to me? Or when you see cartoonists depicting Obama as a chimp or orangatang, get back to me. In other words, STFU about the Magic Negro shit. It's nothing compared to what has happened over the past eight years with Bush.

[jharp]

"Oh, yeah, we get it, harpy."

No you obviously don't.

The "magic negro" parody was used by a RNC candidate to win election. Quite a difference from some lunatic standing on the street with a sign. Sorry but we can't control all lefties just as Palin and McCain can't control the racists in their party.

And it's the GOPers who will be taking the hike. In about 21 days.

[seekeronos]

"--- And it's the GOPers who will be taking the hike. In about 21 days. ---"

I for one, can hardly wait.

Just think! 20 or more years of complete, unilateral Democraticic control. A single-party nation... with the most liberal government since the LBJ administration.

By the time the Dems might actually have a chance of loosing a seat or to in favour of whoever replaces the GOP... with any luck, we might be looking up to the economies and governments of Kenya and Tanganyika for inspiration as to how to be a proper third-world nation.

[jharp]

seeker,

Don't be such a pessimist. We have a very capable leader and we've voted most of the wingnut losers out. And the ones who remain have very little say so.

And how are you doing with your commodity investments?

[Fred Beloit]

"The parody you speak of was sent by a candidate for the RNC chair to promote his candidacy.

Reid called the President "a liar" on the floor of the Senate. It is you who don't get it, Harp.

[jharp]

"Reid called the President "a liar" on the floor of the Senate. It is you who don't get it, Harp."

Didn't know that. And also didn't know liar was a racial slur.

Keep trying Fred. You'll understand it eventually.

[seekeronos]

"--- And how are you doing with your commodity investments? ---"

Cashed out on oil well before the bubble burst, and holding gold.

Looking at oil to see where a good buy-in point might be... prices this good won't be around for very long. I expect gold will also pick up, despite institutional and governmental tomfoolery with the supply.

[Worst President Ever]

Talk about a bunch of out of touch buffoons. You'd think after the dismal results of the last two elections Republicans would want rethink their strategy and policies. So whatta we get - "The Magic Negro", at a time when Obama's poll ratings are 80+. So be my guest, the more Republican leaders that want to stand behind and laugh at "The Magic Negro" the better. It ain't gonna play with most Americans.

[jharp]

"Cashed out on oil well before the bubble burst"

Damn. I'm going to have to start getting my financial advice on this message board.

I have yet to see anyone be wrong.

[tk]

Just watched the negro show in Chicago where we are told the senate seat to be filled has to go to a negro. This country is going to divide big time.

[William Teach]

We have a very capable leader

jharp

Thanks for that bit of humor about Obama, Jharp. Gave me a really good belly laugh.

[Asrai]

jharp states "And also didn't know liar was a racial slur."

according to obama worshipers "liar" IS a racial slur when speaking of obama.

[WAHOO WILLIE]

I guess the problem is a: people dont know where the term that inspired the parody originated and b: are too freekin' uneducated to know what "racist" actually means.
