Politics of Fear and Hatred

Some racist douche bag moonlighting as a state senator posted this on his website.

His response for putting up this hate-fueled picture is even more appalling than the picture itself:

“It was meant tongue in cheek. I’ve got some questions about Senator Obama’s ties to — such as his comment that we should negotiate with Iran. Iran’s a country that would like to destroy Israel, that bothers me. But is this picture appropriate? I don’t know.”

“You know, blogs are for satire and whatnot and, um, that’s why it’s up. It’s similar to the New Yorker picture. Maybe that’s why this has gotten so much attention, because of that thing that came out a couple days ago.”

Do Republicans not see that this sort of fear mongering will backfire in the fall?

In actuality, I think this sort of thing is going to help them keep certain people true to their desires to not see a black person in office. Those people are still numerous in the U.S., despite what liberals seem to want to believe. In addition, some of the stuff that comes out of Obama’s mouth only makes his situation worse. I actually won’t be surprised at all when McCain wins the presidency.

Anonymous trying on some satire himself?

What bothers me most about his defense is that he uses it again(!) to basically spew the same slander; “I’ve got some questions about Senator Obama’s ties to —”.

Notice how he breaks of that sentence and never actually mentions any ties to anything at all. All the while reaffirming the idiocy of this picture.

6. J to the AAP Says:

Funny thing is, Dubya has way more in common with Osama than Barack. Besides the bond between the Bush family and the Bin Ladens they’re both overzealous religious nuts who send other people to their death.

7. Oranja Says:

J to the AAP thats not true though. as for the binladens want nothing to do with osama. So makes u wonder wich family is the most bunch of religious nut cases.

8. esbee Says:

@Oranja: agreed, however we both know it was the CIA that contributed to Osama’s “upbringing” if you will. So this tie to Osama is nothing short of stupidity.
