One of the funniest, tragic outcomes of Obama’s takeover of the Democrats is how certain factions of the party — white, rural “yellow dogs” or “blue reds” or “purple assholes,” depending on the current lexicon — cannot, at all, give support to Obama, for fear of losing support in their red-leaning districts. This comprises 10-25 Democratic members of Congress and virtually all Southern branches of the party. Now, silence is one thing. But when they start literally calling him a terrorist — as some Democratic leaders in Tennessee are doing — to distance themselves, then that might be a modest form of overkill.
This comes from a story about Democratic Rep. Lincoln Davis, who wants to run for governor of Tennessee and therefore cannot show any support for a black man. At least not this early! He will endorse Obama at the convention in August, you see, by which time racism is expected to have vanished entirely, everywhere, and rainbows shall inhabit the Earth.
Until then, however, OBAMA’S A BLACK MOOSLIM THUG:
Fred Hobbs, a state Democratic Party Executive Committee member representing part of Davis’ district, said he understands why Davis is not endorsing Obama and is “skeptical” of the Illinois senator himself.
“Maybe [it’s] the same reason I don’t want to — I don’t exactly approve of a lot of the things he stands for and I’m not sure we know enough about him,” Hobbs said when asked why he thought Davis wasn’t endorsing Obama. “He’s got some bad connections, and he may be terrorist connected for all I can tell. It sounds kind of like he may be.”
Davis was not made available for comment.
His chief of staff, Beecher Frasier, said he doesn’t know for sure if Obama is “terrorist connected” but he assumes he’s not.
It looks kind of like he may be, too!

“Maybe [it’s] the same reason I don’t want to — I don’t exactly approve of a lot of the things he stands for and I’m not sure we know enough about him,” Hobbs said when asked why he thought Davis wasn’t endorsing Obama. “After all, he is a nigger.”
Where’s the Rapture when you really need it?
Tme for St. Barack to pray for a few discriminating tornadoes to visit Davis’ home.
I’ll bet he fondly remembers the days when whites and the terrorist connected had separate water fountains, and terrorist-connected people had to ride in the back of the bus.
[re=15659]loquaciousmusic[/re]: I’m sorry, guys. That looks a heck of a lot harsher and less snarky on the page than it was intended. I’m just so sick of these racists trying to couch their obvious racism in other terms. It’s disgusting, it’s un-American, and I hope that an Obama presidency will be all the payback in the world to these backwards freakshows.
Following the Law of Kevin Bacon, aren’t we all “Terrorist Connected?”
Looks like Fred needs to be dragged by the hand to a corner.
[re=15661]Gopherit v2.0[/re]: We made t-shirts that read “When the Rapture comes, leave me behind.” Then an old lady accosted me at the mall, and my daughter made me swear never to wear it again.
[re=15661]Gopherit v2.0[/re]: The Rapture is totally fake. The National Geographic special on Revelations taught me this. You will all die. Suck it, evangelicals, suck it.
[re=15666]loquaciousmusic[/re]: Ha ha, it was funny.
WRIGHT, AYERS, PLEGER. 20 YEARS IN THAT CHURCH LISTENING TO HATE. HOW CAN WE TRUST BRAK HOOSAYN OSAMA?!!?
-LD
Oh, wait a second. This IS Tennessee. Couldn’t expect anything else from our Bretheren of the Mountains. Prolly not a clean shirt among them. Oh yeah, they also fuck their siblings.
[re=15666]loquaciousmusic[/re]: Well, I went to the Tenn Dem’s homepage and sent a note that read “Please tell me the news reports about Fred Hobbs suggesting Barack Obama is connected to terrorists are false. If they’re true, Fred Hobbs is an idiot.” So, yeah, there’s that.
All this nonsense over a nice Irish lad like O’Bama.
those damn republicans!
[re=15676]MoodProcessor[/re]: Is that you, Dick Cheney?
Our friend Fred has been hitting that Ole White Lightning a little too often and little too much.
Does belief in the rapture make me terrorist connected or just bad connected?
So, “for all I can tell” is the new “as far as I know”? It’s so hard to keep up.
And as far as terrorist connections, I’m sure he’s referring to the business dealings with the bin Laden’s and then hustling them out of the country immediately after 9/11. Because we just won’t tolerate connections like that in our White House!
[re=15666]loquaciousmusic[/re]: no worries, i agree with your point completely.
my dad was recently speaking to my uncle in kansas. my uncle is convinced that barry is muzz and nothing will change his mind. to me, when people persist in CLINGING BITTERLY to the ‘he’s a secret muzz’ thing, it’s just a sad attempt to find an ‘acceptable’ reason not to vote for the black guy.
“Besides,” Hobbs went on, “didn’t that white girl say on TV she met him at the Playboy Mansion?”
[re=15673]tunamelt[/re]: Too bad. I was hoping it was more like the Twilight Zone’s “To Serve Man” episode.
[re=15681]Sussemilch[/re]: Hey, with a name like O’Bomber, he just has to be a terrist. I just know it, so it must be true.
Tennesee scares me. And I live in FUCKING GEORGIA!
Tennesee? or Tennessee? whoops.
[re=15669]MoodProcessor[/re]: Don’t be ridiculous — there is one person who is most certainly not terrorist-connected — even though he hosts Saudi Royalty at his ranch, is photographed holding hands with Prince Abdullah and yet can’t use all his clout to get one more drop of oil out of the Middle East — he’s not terrorist connected at all. Just a freedom-lovin’ dumbass.
[re=15681]Sussemilch[/re]: Well, he is Black Irish….
GodDamn Blue Dog Cornholios, Fake Democrats, with this kinda shit, it’ll be 4 horrible years of “My Freinds, (insert terrifying pronouncement here),” what the fuck does “terrorist connected” even mean?
I’ll bet when this idiot is at the local truck stop cruising dudes he’s not thinking “it seems kind of like I might catch hepatitis from that guy, as far as I can tell?” Nah, I’ll bet he just drops down and gives his trick a twenty.
Mr Hobbs takes a vacation. From the Tenn. Dem Party:
The Tennessee Democratic Party is united behind our party’s nominee, Senator Barack Obama. Mr. Hobbs is obviously misinformed, and his statement highlights the perpetual efforts of the Republican Party, especially here in Tennessee, to turn internet smears and highly offensive gossip into their party’s message against Senator Barack Obama as we head into the General Election. Instead of debating the issues, the Tennessee Republican Party continues to rely upon slanderous and salacious tall tales. They are borrowing from the playbook first written by Richard Nixon and employed in the race against Congressman Harold Ford Jr. Tennesseans of every political persuasion are tired of these tactics.”
“Beecher Frasier” is the perfect name for a chief of staff for this Antebellum robber baron of a Rep. Right out of Faulkner. I can picture the two of them in seersuckers and straw hats, fanning themselves as they sip sweet tea on a veranda and laugh about how “they” all look the same, and can’t do math, etc . . .
@Botswana: 10-O-C
Oh — and hooray for the return of the “That’s Not Racial Transcendence” kid!
Is he terrorist connected?
I love a man who uses “comprises” correctly.
[re=15700]freakishlystrong[/re]: It means Barry and his twin brother Osama won the three-legged race in the Illinois State Fair three years runnin’!
Actually, the headline reads better a little truncated:
Superdelegate Davis slow. [Nashville City Paper]
In Tennessee (and on Fox), Obama is referred to as “One Of Them” on second reference
I think Fred Hobbs has sex with his children. At least I think he might, so he probably does. Yeah, definitely. Fred Hobbs has sex with his children and the neighbors’ children too.
In the future, this will be known as the Great Purging of the Party. Nothing better than a party purging: Ex-Lax or syrup of ipecac are favorite methods.
These guys need to man up and fucking just take the white sheets out of hiding and just admit they hate black people. All this PC racism is making me sick.
[re=15697]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Sorry, Wooks, I forgot about the real terr’st.
[re=15684]Cicada[/re]: Mwah, mwah, mwah.
come on, al gore, harold ford jr. where the fuck are you when your state needs you?
these crackers gots to go!
First reaction: Oh goddammit, not again with the Tennessee jackasshattery.
Second reaction: Oh. Middle and East Tennessee. Figures.
Third reaction: The only difference between a Democrat and a Republican from rural Tennessee is the number of teeth. They both have two buck teeth, but the Republican takes his out so he can suck off the Democrat’s little brother behind the pig trough.
He’s just bitter that real terrorists have never even heard of Tennessee, except the ones who want to blow up Yakov Smirnoff.
Obama is a domestic terrorist. Like Earth First, or The Weathermen. Or he was back in the sixties when he was ten. He knows people who know people that are terrorist connected. George Bush for example.
Shouldn’t Al Gore talk to his neighbors.
[re=15689]obfuscator[/re]: Muzz! Sounds dirty. And sexy!
“Yeah, I’m into Muzz.”
“Getting some Muzz tonight?”
“Hell, ya!”
[re=15666]loquaciousmusic[/re]: No reason at all to apologize. The fact that Obama is “the ‘N’ word” is precisely what this is all about.
He’s not a terrorist? Damn. I thought terror was trendy. No I gotta cancel my freakin’ membership at Al Kader’s Qamp & Spa!
[re=15681]Sussemilch[/re]: [re=15698]Gopherit v2.0[/re]: So Barry’s new campaign slogan is “The Armalite and the Ballot Box”? Up the Provos!
now i cant get that old dr pepper TV commercial out of my head…
“i’m a terrorist, he’s a terrorist, she’s a terrorrist, we’re a terrorist….wouldnt you like to be a terrorist too?’
You know, we should kick the Confederacy out stop pretending that they’re like us. Yeah, we won the war, we slapped them around, called them our bitches and said we were going to civilize them by readmitting them into the Union but we really can’t be serious about letting them be part of our country, can’t we?
Let’s just let the South go its own way; let them take all the Red states with them and let’s just leave it at that. After all, those hicks don’t like our four-seasons climate and our urban culture. Let them take their corn bread and their trailers with them. We’ll still have New Jersey to make fun of once they’re gone.
Why the hell did we go through with Reconstruction? We should have let these assholes eat shit and die.
[re=15666]loquaciousmusic[/re]: apology not necessary. I quite liked it. I felt it hit the spot.
Thank God for Tennessee. How quickly the rest of us forget the proof provided by the fist bump.
This is fucked up. I don’t know a lot about Hobbs, so I’m going to assume he’s inbred, toothless, and blows goats until I have some convincing proof otherwise.
[re=15722]TGY[/re]: ‘syrup of ipecac’ Well, I know that this article made me want to projectile vomit.
I guess someone forgot to give Racist McCracker the memo about how the dumb people already got “their” President, and now it’s time to have a triple-digit IQ in The White House so we don’t all starve and die. Send him that memo again, please. Maybe he’ll read it if he’s not too busy jerking off over his endorsements from right-to-life groups, the National Rifle Association, and the Tennessee Conservative Union. He’s also a member of the Congressional Caucus to Control Methamphetamine, which means he is a secret speedfreak.
[re=15745]kudzu[/re]: Excellent idea.
Tag it Hemophiliadelphia.

[re=15751]ronaldpagan[/re]:
don’t you mean you’re “going to assume he’s inbred, toothless, and blows goats for all I can tell.
…another state to add to the list of states that we will dig a moat around and release the Andromeda Strain into!
I had no idea there was such a thing as a Low-Info Politician. Someone should bust this LIP.
[re=15734]upperleft[/re]: Actually, Barry was only ten in 1971. “Barry the Scary” they called him. (“Dennis the Menace” was already taken.)
[re=15755]AngryBlakGuy[/re]:
The frightening thing about TN is that it shows how Obama could lose the election–if enough voters, less open in their racism than the TN Democrats quoted decide to vote for the white guy, using whatever self-justification they have handy.
[re=15752]Tits_LaRue[/re]: Why the fuck isn’t this guy in the Republican Party? He’s like our Lincoln Chafee. I’m calling him out as a DINO.
I hope a President Bear Bear would recruit Dems who don’t actively hate black people to challenge these Blue Dog Fuckers in the 2010 primaries.
When he goes to the convention in Denver, I hope the DNC houses this guy in a broken-down trailer home with a rusty stove sitting outside the door, and Confederate flags for curtains. Right outside the convention center. F*cking “5 Whore Diamond” idiot.
Tennesseein’ is Tennebelievin’
The only terrorists left in the United States are moronic white politicians from the South and their dumbo constituents. Fucking asshats.
Hobbs may be inbred ignorant dumb fuck proof that evolution doesn’t happen south of the Mason Dixon line connected for all I can tell. It sounds kind of like he may be.
[re=15767]eatsshootsleaves[/re]: Exactly. He is a Republican, he should lead the mass exodus of Hee Haw rejects from the D-side and stop living a lie! Enough of this pussyfooting around, come out of the Red Closet, fuckers…
[re=15689]obfuscator[/re]: Bingo!
Want some scary in your water
terror in your tea?
What’s all these crazy things Fox be tellin’ me?
This is the craziest ‘lection there could ever be
Don’t turn on the lights, ’cause I don’t want to see!
Johnny told me better vote
Bama made me wanna vote
That ain’t the way to have hope, no
Turn up the Fox News
Let some truth into this room
I think I’m almost chokin’
From the stanky terror tune
And that cigarette he’s smoking
‘Bout scared me half to death
Open up the window, sucker
Let me catch my breath
[Refrain]
Johnny told me better vote
Bama made me wanna vote
That ain’t the way to have hope, no
Fox TV is a blastin’
McCain knocking at my door
I’m lookin’ at my wallet
’cause I’m gonna give him more
I heard so many things
I ain’t never heard before
Don’t know what it is
I don’t wanna hear no more!
[Refrain]
Bama made me, Johnny told me, Osama made me
Told me, maybe
That ain’t no way to have hope, whoah, yeah yeah
Johnny told me better vote
Bama, mama, Osmama told me
That ain’t no way to have hope
That ain’t the way to have hope, no
That ain’t the way to have hope, son
That ain’t the way to have hope, no
That ain’t the way to have hope, son
[Ad lib, repeat to fade]
I hope this doesn’t mean Barry has to start up a new section on his anti-smear web to tell people that he is, in all actuality, not a terrorist.
Them there Tennessee-uns run their whisper campaignin’ about the same volume level as their hog callin’.
[re=15857]Q2[/re]: Ah, the classics. Excellent job
[re=15966]Truculent[/re]: Thank you. Then Russert went and died and ruined it.
The US has made it very hard on the Muslim I will rectify this problem when elected, I will make these poor guys our friends.
This I sware by Allah.
[re=16072]tocute2btrue[/re]: See, I thought you were an LNSer from your other post, but you’re just a racist twat! Where can we send your complementary truckNUTZ to help you compensate a bit?
Meh. Never mind Hobbsian Tennessee dudes. Obama is emperor of the world!! Anyone notice the latest Pew Survey [which is real but you have to go halfway down this page to find it]:
“People around the world who have been paying attention to the American election express more confidence in Barack Obama than in John McCain to do the right thing regarding world affairs. McCain is rated lower than Obama in every country surveyed, except for the United States where his rating matches Obama’s, as well as in Jordan and Pakistan where few people have confidence in either candidate.”
So Obama is a Black scottish cyclops? I guess they’re going to have to glue McCain back together in hell.
I done ain’t gooona’ vote fer that guy not cuase ah his scin coller, butt beekause he ain’t done got no experience, and ahl he done do is give some stupdi speeches that jus’ don’ say nuttin’. So that is my opinion on why many citizens do not support this particular candidate’s quest to be president.
First, these inbred freaks diss Obama, then this

Sleep tight!
I was away from the internet most of the day and am just now catching up with the wonkette, but I swear, the phrase “rainbows shall inhabit the Earth” may be the greatest thing I have ever heard.
What still strikes me as bizarre is that Hillary claimed to be more bankable come November because she could count on the votes of dirtbag racist morons like this Hobbs guy. Kind of sad, really.
[re=15666]loquaciousmusic[/re]: HAHAHAHAHAHA white guilt about the N-word. Don’t worry we all got the sarcasm. It’s obvious to all that muzz, terrorist, inexperience etc.. are all just novel ways calling Barack a nigger.
Mr. Hobbs please just come out and reject and denounce O’Bomber. You know you want to. All the fun is gone now that Hillury ain’t comin’ round these parts no more. No more kitchun sinks scattered around.
McNutty won’t even reject and denounce him – he’s too afraid what the Irish terrist might do to him. This is your big moment in the sun. Make your move cuzin – its now or nevur – and we will all salute your smartyness and vote you our supreme grand wizard overlord.
Oh, and and just when I thought it was safe.
Can’t we just get on with snarkin’ without constantly invoking Hillary?
No? Too easy?
Hard habit to break?
Panic Time! Their way of life is at it’s twilight, and they’re completely freaking out. They can all run to the hills and fucking rot.
All I know is that at some point in this election someone who really shouldn’t will drop the N-bomb and it will be hilarious.
So, automatically –
Don’t agree with Obama’s stance on issues = Racist
?????
Did I miss something? Did Davis actually SAY he cannot show any support for a black man? or??
Fill me in someone!! Please!!
Thanks
[re=16531]italianFrank[/re]: Apparently, you’re missing the point where his chief of staff insinuated that Barack Obama may have terrorist connections – y’know, because he’s brown and has a funny name. When your chief of staff speaks to the media about you, it’s generally assumed they speak on your behalf. Kind of comes with the job. If the guy who runs your political machine can’t come up with a better reason, it’s pretty telling.
[re=16526]choom gangster[/re]: $10 says it happens on Fox News….
On a semi-related note, I was discussing politics with my dad this weekend, and mentioned that I had heard Obama had received a lot more death threats than other candidates. I know when he and Hillary came here in the same weekend, security was MUCH tighter for Obama than for Clinton. My dad commented, in a “sort of joking but not really” manner, that if Obama wanted to be safe from death threats from the Klan, he should select a minority woman as his VP running mate.
An Open Letter to Fred Hobbs.
Dear Fred Hobbs,
I would like to applaud your recent statement implying Barack Obama is a terrorist. We here at Bigots United for McCain know that John can not possibly win on the issues. We need fine upstanding Americans like you to muddy the waters and cast doubt on the character and frankly the citizenship of the presumptive Democratic Nominee. We simply do not need a black man in office. Do we want our grade school children pointing to Africa on the map thinking it is where they live? No Sir!
If Obama gets in we will not be able to privatize Social Security and the country may very well spend a lot of money on health care for its populous instead of fighting wars in far off exotic lands. By the way, did you know Obama is Exotic? He is! And you can call him that on TV and not have to apologize!
John McCain can’t say so but he appreciates your support so I will say it for him. We love your strong commitment to your race and to the Presidential race being won by a real American who is not black.
Remember! Race, Party and then Country!
Michael Meehan
Executive Director

typical redneck racism, very typical.
“Hobbs says he understands why Davis hasn’t yet thrown his support to Obama, noting that he’s “skeptical” of Obama himself: “Maybe [it's] the same reason I don’t want to — I don’t exactly approve of a lot of the things he stands for and I’m not sure we know enough about him… He’s got some bad connections, and he may be terrorist connected for all I can tell. It sounds kind of like he may be.”
rednecks you gotta love ‘em, or maybe not.
