he was just quoted at a fundraiser this evening (trying to source it, Rachel read it out loud as breaking news straight from the press pool) as saying "if they want more free stuff, tell them to go vote for the other guy"... cause he's tooootally not just a race-baiting cunt or anything.

Oh, he's tooooooooootally not! I mean, I can relate to Mitty. I, myself, own a dressage horse AND several negros!!

Still cannot find anyone other than Dem Under, Daily K & her all saying it and the first two referencing each other as sources... :eyebrow:


**Change bolded for "accuracy"**

It was posted somewhere how out of sorts and nervous Biff was in a classroom full of kids.

Yeah, we can count on a guy who doesn't even have social skills outside his comfort zone.

Please don't fall for his bumbling act. Falling for the poor sad clown gave us eight years of g-dub.

Not sure if its true or not, but this would worry me a LOT more than what he was purported to have said.

That it. I am never having sex with Rush Limbaugh again. Posting as UG is his idea of foreplay. Its no longer fun.

Has that story not made its rounds of the cellar? it.. should. yeah, thats a big deal. i just wanted to shed a little light on the obviously racist undertones of the followup to the NAACP booing, given the fact that more than one of us here have pointed out that he probably basically wanted to be booed (so he could say something like, THAT)

I'll probably get in trouble here because I have not heard the quote in context... but that never stopped me before. Will it be racist when Biden says, "Vote for us, we'll give you free stuff." There are many ways to be racist, assuming people are not capable of taking care of themselves would be one. Romney is expressing an actual political position. He is full of shit since he believes in free stuff for the oligarchs, but the position is only racist if his lack of commitment to the under-class is based of skin color not an assumption that they are capable of independence.

Oh wait. No. I'm thinking "so...Mitt...what is that name short for? Certainly he's a matthew or something."

Willard Mitt Romney

Really? Poor guy, no wonder he beat people up and pretended to be a cop and pulled people over. He was bullying as compensation for the dumbass name his parents gave him. :lol:

You know who else dressed up as a cop and pulled people over?

Several serial killers.


AND THE DOG ON TOP OF THE CAR THING, PEOPLE!

This man is one banana phone away from being Jeffrey Dahmer!

Save yourselves!!!!!!

This was actually a win for Romney. He proved to the people he REALLY panders to, the ultra-rich right, that he's not afraid to confront the other side and that he won't give anything to anyone unless they ARE ultra-rich and ultra-right wing.

and Ultra WASP-Y!

He's the Ultimate WASP! except for that pesky Mormon thingy. That's not so much as a P as a C as in "cult"

but, whatever. He's a rich white guy and we know they always know best. Right, daddy-o?

the racism is in the othering of black people inherent in the rhetoric and the policies of the party as a whole, and mitt's own personal consistent comments. Also, "racism" isn't "stuff that acknowledges race" - its stuff that helps contribute to the systems of oppression of minority groups, duh. "Reverse racism" is not racism.

I don't agree with your definition of racism.

Prejudice, based on racial stereotypes is most definitely a form of racism. And there are a thousand ways it can be expressed. Furthermore, it's possible to have racist attitudes and still express opinions that are not racist. There's no causal dependency nor are they mutually exclusive. Griff had it right, racism is rooted in attitude, even unconscious ones, intention. It is about prejudice, pre-judging.
