Ring in the post-racial New Year: Obama effigy in Plains, GA
Yes, the color-aroused yahoos are already off to a nice start in 2010. (WALB): A doll found hanging off of a building in Plains is causing controversy. Controversial enough to get the United States Secret Service involved. Witnesses say it was an image of President Barack Obama with a rope…
Florida U.S. Congressional candidate Larry ‘homo-sex w/Obama’ Sinclair writes me
We have a celebrity missive in the mailbag! Sunshine State U.S. Congressional candidate Larry “I had homosex and blow with Obama” Sinclair saw my recent post about his new career move — from serving time for multiple offenses to serving his country. His email is full of misspellings, bad grammar…
New phrase in the lexicon: “going birther”
When someone “goes birther”, that means they have given up their last thread attaching themselves to reality, and flinging themselves into full-on wingnut mode. You can usually tell when someone has gone birther because they literally start spouting nonsense about how Obama’s birth certificate isn’t real, though many think they’re…
BREAKING: Rich, Famous, Image-Obsessed Man Cheats
Shocking story here. Barack Obama is also on the cover of January’s Golf Digest with Tiger Woods, which is certainly indicative of Obama’s need to address the crisis of infidelity in the black community. I look forward to this national dialogue.…

This Just Might Be A Terrible Column
I’m torn about whether this John F. Harris article is terrible. On the one hand, it’s like a hall of mirrors…of stupid. It’s a reporter discussing all the things that he and his ilk could be saying about Obama…but aren’t yet. Harris proposes 7 narratives that Obama hopes doesn’t catch…
Colorado car dealer’s sign tries to tie Obama with terrorism and Ft. Hood tragedy
The 2008 campaign was great for armchair psychologists as we saw a good slice of color-aroused America that had been hiding its true feelings about the prospect of the country being led by a man of color. Is it me, or have the out-and-proud racist bigot stories have continued in…
Wingnuts approximate “clever” while threatening the President
Via Spencer, Gawker reports on a growing movement of Christians using religious “jokes” in order to call for the assassination of Obama. The “joke” is this T-shirt, citing a verse from the Bible that says, “May his days be few; may another take his place of leadership.” As Gawker explains,…
Wash. Times’ Pruden: Obama lacks ‘blood impulse’ to lead the U.S. because of mother’s jungle fever
Add this to the post-racial society pile! There was a time when racist bullsh*t like this went on in private conversation, but Washington Times editor emeritus Wesley Pruden apparently goes balls to the wall with this bit of miscegenation analysis of the background of the President of the United States.…
