Making fun of the President's name? That would have been an impossibility when the left was in opposition during Bushitler's tenure!

First, I'm not going to say that he can't say it.  Second, you can try to say he's racist but what if he's anthony is black or maybe he's not racist.  Will the double standard end?  Third, I don't think its right for him to say it for he is speaking about the President but he does have the freedom to say what he wants.

During grad school I was working for the government.  There were protesters outside our building with Bush is a Fascist and with Bush looking like Hitler.  When I left for lunch I was called a corporate fascist pig or executive pig (I was wearing a suit.  It does have a nice ring to it).  They confronted me and I told them that I don't approve of their message and comparing him to Hitler.  Its a highly derogatory message, but they have the freedom to assemble and speech.  To which they replied 'get on your corporate jet you executive pig.  You hater and go destroy the environment and our freedoms.'  I just got done saying I supported their freedoms.

You can try to pull the race card or I'm a fascist pig, but you know something I know who I am.  Just because I'm not out there wagging my finger saying something is wrong all the time doesn't mean that the one time I'm not saying something is wrong that I all of sudden approve of it.

Of course I'm not a racist TPP. When I goof on Barack Obongo Onyanga Hussein Obama of Kenya, I'm really doing nothing but using his family name. His brother in Kenya, (still living in a mud hut) is named George Hussein Onyango Obama, so you can see where the "Onyanga" comes from, but the Obongo part was my own little goof, so you've got me there. Some here would like to imagine that I watch 1930's minstrel shows or eat pancakes that depict slaves on the box, but I guess I derived it when I imagined Obama banging on a drum with his communist buddy Harry Belefonte singing the Day O Banana song as they turn the United States of America into a banana republic.

i'll happily cop to concocting the occasional absurdity, this ain't one of those nor--if it were--would it qualify as 'one of the most".

one that might qualify can be found here: inanity example

nor did i.  he has a right to say whatever he wants as do you or i.

i didn't say he was.

no double standard here of which i'm aware.

no specific president--nor the office itself--is entitled to a pass from being verbally abused nor is anyone else.

that's not my issue here.

pretty long reach, but i might be able to almost make out the vague shadow of an overstretched lame goof if he were actually from kenya and bore all those ancestral names. 

that mud hut thing is somehow even less relevant than his brother's name. 

not to mention the obammy discussed elsewhere.

sorta like ernie kovac's 'nairobi trio'?   how bout them old cartoons in which african natives are chucking spears in between tossing whites into boiling cooking pots? 

i guess there's a good explanation for everything, including publicly referring to mlk as martin lucifer coon.

no.  just means you're willing to let it slide.  

a more pertinent question would be--considering all the power you attach to what you consider 'mainstream media"--how time and similar publications have yet to influence 18% of pollable american public who claim to believe obama is a muslim.

Its all somewhat amusing until I reach the end... I would like for you to point out where I called MLK such a name. 

never said you did. 

a lotta others have tho.  used to hear it alla time as a matter of fact.  most frequently from people i didn't consider hardcore haters.  someone would tape up lil posters to the lockers at the mill or to backs of restroom doors.  sometimes they'd have pix or cartoons.  maybe even new lyrics to tunes everyone learned as kids (including 'battle hymn of the republic") 

Who restored their legitimacy?  Even a broken clock (edited for Taltamir) is right twice a day.  That does not make it unbroken.

I think you are projecting your desires, not reality.

No one ever expects the Spanish Inquisition!

That is one of your many problems bee pee.  You project your own biases onto others.  I have read all the comments and the only one that is "attaching" power to the MSM is you.  I see many "attaching" incompetence, malfeasance, dereliction of duty and such to them for the abject failure in performing their jobs.  But power?  Yes, they do have as much power as Goebbels did, which means without the weight of thugs behind them (SEIU, ACORN, New Black Panthers, Felons, etc.) they are just another example of incompetency and excused for the left to continue to be stupid.

WOW!  Double post with one click!

its broken clock, not block

What is the difference between a liberal and a broken clock? a broken clock is right twice a day, a liberal is never right. Liberalism is not a random selection of beliefs, but a philosophy that is so fundamentally wrong that it will always reach a false conclusion no matter what you apply it to.

That isn't to say that conservatives are always right btw... liberals and conservatives can both be wrong on an issue because there are more then two opinions...

actually, speaking of conservative, conservative seems to be a list of beliefs that people who (for VERY different philosophical reasons) agree with most refer to themselves as conservatives. The philosophy of a devout christian and an intelligent and educated atheist scientist are very different, yet both could be conservative (just for very different reasons).
