The Obama Witch Project: RAAAAAAAAACISM!
RAAAAACISM!
My second syndicated column of the week today mocks Obama’s frightened supporters in Washington and in the media who see the specter of racism everywhere they turn. Jim Treacher’s “Wacism” post provides the perfect graphic. Wanna freak out your liberal friends for Halloween? Buy a Sarah Palin mask, wear white, do your “thug thizzle,” and don’t forget to “otherize.”
Boo!

The Obama Witch Project

Republicans don’t need to dress up for Halloween this year. They’re scaring the pants off Barack Obama’s followers by their mere presence. Anything they say, wear, or do provokes instant cries of “RAAAAACISM!” Wink, blink, or think critical thoughts about Obama? You’re a bigot!
How many racial bogeyman have Obama operatives and sympathetic journalists discovered lurking in “coded language” and attire? Let us count the ways:
*At Tuesday’s presidential debate, John McCain referred to Obama as “that one.” Official Obama press agitator Bill Burton sent off an e-mail blast to reporters: “Did John McCain just refer to Obama as ‘that one’?” Horrors. Taking their cue from Burton, spooked Obama supporters hyperventilated like teenagers on the set of the Blair Witch Project movie. “The racial undertones were subtle but unmistakable,” declared Maya Wiley of the leftist Center for Social Inclusion. “McCain was tapping into a current of superiority among white voters. It was an attempt to ‘otherize’ Obama.”
“Otherize?” Sounds like something you do to your car tires to prepare for winter.
UC Berkeley linguistics prof George Lakoff was also haunted by “That One:” “The phrase was meant to say, ‘You and I are in the same area, but he’s the outsider.’”
Memo to McCain: Next time, call him “The One.”
*Obama supporters on the heavily-traffic Democratic Underground website (where such mainstream Democrats as Elizabeth Edwards hang out) saw the ghost of the Ku Klux Klan in Sarah Palin’s white suit jacket. Yes, white clothes = racism.
“Palin is wearing white again, inciting the racist crowds. She should just drop all pretense and put on her white hood and light up a cross. She is a despicable human being,” fumed a DU poster. “Grand Princess of the KKK,” proclaimed another. They’re “trying to send subtle signals to their rabid base,” yet another member of Obama’s rabid base declared.
My racial decoder ring must be on the fritz. Because I’m not getting the signal. If she wears white stockings, drinks a vanilla milk shake, and refers to budgetary black holes, are those incitements, too? And what about her gorgeous white teeth? Perhaps she should drink more coffee — hold the white cream! — to avoid emitting further racial radiation.
*Such paranoia is not limited to the fever swamps of the Internet. Earlier this week, the Associated Press disseminated an “analysis” accusing Palin of injecting a “racial tinge” into the campaign because she criticized Obama for his longtime relationship with Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers. Palin’s comments were completely unobjectionable: “This is not a man who sees America like you and I see America.”
I saw a vice presidential candidate drawing stark philosophical differences between two tickets. The AP saw Freddy Krueger with lipstick and a noose.
“Whether intended or not by the McCain campaign, portraying Obama as ‘not like us’ is another potential appeal to racism. It suggests that the Hawaiian-born Christian is, at heart, un-American,” the AP piece frothed.
Obama is half-black. Ayers is white. One of the Weather Underground’s victims was black police officer Waverly Brown of Nyack, New York. Where do I buy a pair of the super X-ray glasses that can detect the racism in Palin’s remarks about the Obama-Ayers alliance?
*I’ll have to borrow those hysterical-colored spectacles from Time’s Karen Tumulty, who spotted racist goblins in the recent McCain ad criticizing Obama for seeking advice from Fannie Mae corruptocrat, Franklin Raines. “Sinister images of two black men, followed by one of a vulnerable-looking elderly white woman,” Tumulty balked in a blog post titled “McCain plays the race card.”
Um, “sinister?” The ad’s photos of Obama and Raines were standard shots — some with dour expressions, others smiling. The fact that Tumulty perceived them as “sinister” suggests that she should perform a self-racism exam before diagnosing anyone else.
*A parade of Congressional witch hunters for Obama also detects the specter of George Wallace behind every policy bush. Democrat New York Gov. David Paterson says conservative criticism of Obama’s community organizing days is code for “black.” Democrat Rep. Gregory Meeks complained to the New York Observer: “They are trying to throw out these codes.” In the same piece, Democrat Rep. Yvette Clark divined segregationist intent in Palin’s references to Joe Six Pack and hockey moms. “It leaves a lot of people out.”
And Democrat Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid echoed Time’s Tumulty on the McCain camp’s Obama/Raines broadsides: “The only connection that people could bring up about Raines and Barack Obama is that they both are African-American, other than that there is nothing.”
The Washington Post reported that Obama’s office phoned up Raines for housing advice and has stood by its reporting. Is the newspaper part of the McCain/Palin hooded racists’ coven, too?
Obama’s witch hunters better beware. When there’s racism in every hiccup, nobody’s air supply is safe.

“Gov. Palin knowingly permitted a situation to continue where impermissible pressure was placed on several subordinates in order to advance a personal agenda,” the report states.
It was also a unanimous decision with a republican majority. Feel free to blog about this any day now MM. I know you would be all over this if it was Biden, or Obama. Also don’t think this won’t appear in some ADs if Palin wants to continue to play “Miss Ethics Reform Girl”. LOL. Palin is right, BTW, you just gotta read the WHOLE report. *wink*
There is only one way to win this election. Vote! And encourage; no, insist, that the sane among us cast their vote for McCain. I realize that McCain is not the best of all worlds, but given the alternative it’s the only sane choice for our country to remain even somewhat similar to the one in which I was raised. I don’t like the way the McCain campaign has performed, and I don’t like his stance on immigration and the bailout. But to think that Barack Hussein Obama will be the POTUS is enough to make me vomit.
I just today am casting my vote for McAmnesty… in California! It will do no good, of course, Obama will carry California and be the next president.
What a HORRIBLE choice McAmnesty was for conservatives… I wish Fred “Dead” Thompson had had some BALLS!
The McCain/Palin ticket is the first in American history in which both candidates were found to have violated ethics standards before a national election.
When you consider that the MSM and every other news source out there is in the tank for The Tarnished Bovine, gearing all their stories to show his ability to walk on water, heal the sick and feed the poor with a box of Ritz Crackers and a can of tuna, does anyone not really see that these polls are also geared to show he is ahead no matter what?
i’m sorry, but I guess I just refuse to believe that this country has gone so far down into the sewer as to actually have this Socialist, Racist, lying terrorist loving thug become President while we are facing some of the largest threats to the safety and security of this country that it has ever faced. Let alone with the lowest approval ratings the Congress has ever had, especially with the Democrats in charge.
I can’t help but think these poll numbers are nothing more than made up crap in order to set up two things. One, to discourage Republicans from going to the polls, feeling that they need not bother since Odhimmi is obviously going to win, and also to sway the spineless “Undecideds” to vote for the guy who is “clearly the winner” since those typoes of people would not want to be connected with anything else.
Second, it is setting things up for the Liberals and their street thugs to cry “Voter Fraud” should Capt. big Ears lose. They will claim that with him so far ahead in the polss, it is clear that there was Republican fraud involved as to the reason why McCain won.
That tactic was used on a smaller basis in 2004, when the MSM was declaring Kerry the winner based on Exit Polling, however the completely ignored the fact people were telling them lies in order to get them off their cases, as well as only exit polling in ostly Kerry supported places.
Yeah, I got them rose colored glasses on. I just cannot see the people of this country being just that uninformed, that stupid, that suicidal as actually wanting to have this horrible, horrible man sit in the Oval Office and hand this Nation over to Her enemies with a kiss and pat on the a$$.
If that is the case, then maybe all those Bible “End Time” prophesies really may just come true.
The one thing that I absolutely love about TheOtherSide and mistressjustice is how they never let any of the facts get in the way of their postings. It’s nice to see that there’s still nothing on the horizon to signal an end to that trend.
I see you haven’t presented any FACTS to dispute anything in my post. I know, I know you’re waiting for talking points from talk radio and MM for guidance. I know.
I love people like you.
One of your subordinates has an employee, who becasue these are need for his work is issued a Taser and a side arm. The employee in question has used his issued Taser in his own home for personal reasons to Taser his 10 year old child, your niece. He has also threatened to shoot your father, presumeably with his issued side arm.
The evidence of both is beyond refute. They are facts.
In addition to these charges, this employee is also under consideration for termination for other offenses. You ask the subordinate to fire the employee to deny him access to the Taser and the sidearm. The subordinate refuses.
The Otherside, what would you do at that point?
Me? I tell the subordinate once, “Fire the employee or your replacement will.” When he does not take the necessary measures to protect the public, my niece, my father and my sister who is married to this piece of dirt, I fire him for failure to enforce discipline in his department, which he demonstrably has failed to do.
His replacement is given the same directive.
SHOW OF HANDS: Who agrees with my approach?
That is the situation Governor Palin addressed. Kudos to her.
P.S. THAT is the difference in the conduct of a governor and the conduct of a legislator.
A camel is a horse designed by a committee.
#193 mistressjustice trolled:
I noticed that you didn’t present any FACTS in your little post. That’s ok. I’m not the one who has to get talking points from nbc and the nyt.
btw, no talking points for me. I can – and do – think for myself. Too bad the same can’t be said for you and those on your side.
misstressjustice…..here is YOUR candidate for POTUS….not VP…..POTUS!
WATCH THIS
He is a serial liar, Marxist, a pal of worldwide terrorists, unqualified to be POTUS, and not a citizen of the USA.
I laugh SO MUCH at all your posts.
PEOPLE!! You cannot criticize Obama. Period. Or else you are racist and stoking hate. I agree with Rush. If Obama and his supporters are so confident right now, why are these people coming out right and left charging the McCain campaign making statements such as this:
Civil rights icon and Georgia congressman John Lewis is accusing John McCain and Sarah Palin of stoking hate, likening the atmosphere at Republican campaign events to those featuring George Wallace, the segregationist former governor of Alabama and presidential candidate.
“What I am seeing reminds me too much of another destructive period in American history,” Lewis said in a statement issued today. “Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin are sowing the seeds of hatred and division, and there is no need for this hostility in our political discourse.”
Rob, I have mine to but dont mail it in, drop it in any box on election day….
They don’t even bother with the absentee ballots unless needed in Ca.
plus they will probably lose it….
Speaking of FauxBama…
The case in PA where the lawyer is demanding proof of FauxBama’s citizenship is moving along, and apparently the Court has ordered that Obama provide his birth certificate and related papers. The link purports to be the judge’s ruling. It looks authentic to me, but I’m not a lawyer. However, I know others here are, who may be familiar with this stuff.
Just a little FYI, for those who are interested.
http://docs.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/pennsylvania/paedce/2:2008cv04083/281573/18/0.pdf
I guess we make each other laugh, because I actually thought your link would be something useful. That link was cute. Good luck getting traction with the citizenship angle. I don’t even see Rush, Hannity or MM touching that stupidity any more.
Even people in power have to follow certain rules and standards. Some of you may think Palin can use her position of power to fight personal vendettas. A bipartisan panel in her “community” disagrees with you.
Do you disagree with the panel’s findings? Please tell me all about your insider information to refute the unanimous, well researched findings of 4 democrats and 10 republicans.
“Gov. Palin knowingly permitted a situation to continue where impermissible pressure was placed on several subordinates in order to advance a personal agenda,” the report states.
Right now 41% of Americans think she’s ready to be president. I expect that number to continue to drop.
…just one 72 year old heartbeat away….
later
mistressjustice – please then, tell me what standards and rules the ObamaMessiah has followed?
For the record though – a politically inspired hit job on someone bears no weight with those of us who like real facts.The fact that there were republicans on the committee only goes to show how much she shook up the entrenched establishment in Alaska – not that she did anything wrong.
Did you ever hear of Senator Joseph McCarthy?
According to the poll I just read only 31% of the people believe that The ObamaMessiah is qualified to be President – and he’s leading the democrat ticket!!
The little old man McAmnesty today AGAIN said not to pick on Obama… he is such a poor candidate. I really hate this guy…
THAT’S RACIST!
I have heard of Senator Joseph McCarthy and consider him a great patriot regardless of bad movies, TV specials and New York Times columnist. Were there in fact communist in the government and was in fact the Truman administration ignoring it.
Answers” yes and yes.
Was he loud, a bully and vulgar? Yes he was and that WAS Congress in the forties and fifties. Look at some old Estes Kefauver tapes of the era. Estes Kefauver was a liberal.
And yes Rob, McCain is easy to dislike and taking our country down to build his ego.

Enjoy
Sarah should stay with that theme, and explain it i.e. what is Black Liberation Theology, book buddy Frank’s communism, Ayers/Rezko/Farrakan’t/ etc.
obama is NOT like us real true red blooded Americans.
First McCain should ask ZERObama to his face…
” Do you think YOU ARE the messiah?”
Farakhan do. Diddy do. Hamas do. barry think he can raise waters an fix the planet.
Jus ax him.
Everyone else in zerobama camp thinks so, his overseas dictators and terrorist friends think so.
ZERObama must have convinced them that he is the ‘one’ messiah
People;
Because conservatives haven’t developed and broadcast simple truths in an effective way America is weeks away from electing its first closet communist as President. Conservatives need to get on message and stay on message. Is lamenting media bias, being called names, lurkers corrupting our blogs, etc, etc the number one messages we have? If not, why is so much type space wasted on these topics when our number one message should be a well told, factual account of Barack Obama’s lack of qualification to be President? Conservative voices that have platforms on the national stage need to use those platforms to champion a well thought out public message based on 100% provable fact – without sarcasm, without innuendo, without speculation. When sarcasm, innuendo and speculation are given prominent space in conservative message forums two things happen. First, liberals divert all attention to those words and away from the important message we want told. Result, primary message negated. Second, undecided voters who come across blogs and other conservative forums such as this see caricatures of Obama with big ears or in a turban and they read sarcastic ridicule about Obama in both the primary message space and in the comments section. Result, they think we are a bunch of far right nuts. Again, primary message negated. I see thousands of comments on this blog and others. That tells me there is a pool of smart manpower available that can help build a proper presentation of the conservative message. We all need to focus on building and telling the message and stop wasting time on silly columns and comments that end in “/sarcasm off”. The 5 minutes you waste now typing a cute superfluous comment will soon lead to four years of opportunity for you to type comments that end in “//crying on”. Its time to start working and stop focusing on things that don’t matter.
It goes to show you what low lives Obama supporters are.
In the words of the immortal Ray Patterson: If you want an experienced public servant, vote for McCain. But if you want to believe a bunch of crazy promises about ga
rbagemen cleaning your guttersHope andwaxing your car…Change then by all means vote for this sleazy lunatic.Sorry if I joined the late, but I ran across this little gem, and had to comment:
So tell us, tettes, what do you think about MSM “man in the street” interviews, or call in/internet polls, or those special audiences that the MSM will assemble for input from “the average Joe/Josephine?”
You know what the difference is? At DU and Kos (even here!), you see the deep down, unvarnished by anonymity views of the real Obamabots. These are the actual thoughts running through their little race sensitized minds, unfiltered by anything like responsibility or a thin veneer of civilized behavior. That is why it is such an accurate measure of the fanaticism of the Obamaroids and shows what they really believe.
Michelle is completely justified by ca
Given what I just told you, you should be far more afraid, as should we all, of the seething hatred and racism that is the foundation of the Obama campaign, not to mention the fraud and the blatant associations with racists, felons, terrorists and communist/socialists.
You fear for yourself, I fear for the country.
Physician, heal thyself.
Didn’t finish the statement above!
…Michelle is completely justified in using their own words, thoughts, and deep down beliefs to describe them.
Very good Dimsdale, very good indeed.

When the royalists living under the rule of King George II in England saw the burning anger and heard the vituperate language of our founding fathers against their king; they were scared by the passionate desire of an intelligent people to live free of government tyranny… or die fighting to oppose it.
Sorry, I cannot call Obambi other than ‘The WRONG One’ or the alternative ‘THE VERY WRONG ONE’ as he has not, after the two years of campaigning, said anything close to wanting anything RIGHT for America.
