Wonkette
A couple of readers have sent us this hysterical Republican PAC ad spotted on the Drudge Report, which depicts some angry black guy trying to give a 9/11 terrorist as many drivers licenses as he and his illegal Mexican Muslim friends want. … Oh now heavens to Betsy, wait a sec, that angry black guy is whosisbutt, Barkbama, the Democratic nominee for president! Now why would a presidential nominee and purportedly “pro-American” statesman “associate” with a known terrorist in an advertising campaign? An extra buck, eh? Shameless.
On the other hand, John McCain is a proponent for driver’s licenses for eagles. American ones.
But… wasn’t Mohammed Atta here legally? I say, my dear chap, this RNC ad might be factually incorrect!
Wow, pulling out the Saxby Chambliss style ads, I see.
I can’t snark; this is just plain sad now.
Meh, can’t be any worse than Virginia drivers.
This reminds me. It’s long past time for Congress to crack down on pilots licenses for illegal aliens and anyone in the bottom 5% of their class.
Ooh! Can I get one with Dalton Trumbo on it?
Oh, you must check out this “letter” on their website: <A HREF=”“Hillary’s Secrets Can Defeat Obama.”
And McCain’s ilk drops yet more swirlie down the proverbial shitter. Le sigh.
Holy sh*t — you mean it was Obama at the DMV who gave Mohammad Atta his Class C license for airliner crashing? Damn!
…sex ed for kindergartners, driver licenses for terrorist what next abortions for men?!
loquaciousmusic: Sorry. Apparently, I can’t type today. Or think. This is actually kind of depressing.
I think I will just stay in my house for the next 16 days. Draw the blinds. Watch no TV, read no news. Drink brown liquor until it is time to go vote.
jagorev: …if you aren’t white, then you are always an illegal alien!
The Cold Sea: You mean Boston drivers, each of whom is on a personal jihad to kill as many innocents as possible.
It’s adds like these that make me want to sneak across the Rio Grande into Mexico to pick chile peppers, much like the great hero, Peter Piper.
Hey, why did Florida give a 9/11 “muslin” terrorist a drivers license? Jeb? Kitty?
StripesAndPlaids: …may I suggest Tequila. Its particularly good at making the “bad” voices go away!
jagorev: People in Boston are not innocent.
AngryBlakGuy: He’s a real sonofabitch, that NObama.
Barry, can I please has some of that Mexican welfare you’ve been giving the illegal immigrant domestic terrorists from. Can i getz them in Obama Bucks too?
This is totally off topic, but why is that horse’s ass biden basically guaranteeing some kind of terrorist attack in the first 6 months of Obama Nation? Can you please STFU? Oh, you can’t. Nevermind.
OMFG. Just Google “atta illegal”. It’s kind of scary.
Amazing! Atta’s license was set to expire ON 9-11-01!!! What are the odds of that?!? Never Forget! Let’s Roll! Ladder to Heaven! USA USA USA!!1
Hey, GOP — look down. Do you see a shark?
jagorev: The RNC, less than 100% factual? Unheard of!
StripesAndPlaids says at 5:00 pm, October 20th, 2008 - I think I will just stay in my house for the next 16 days. Draw the blinds. Watch no TV, read no news. Drink brown liquor until it is time to go vote.
Then you will be maintaining yourself just the way the republicans are maintaining Sarah Palin!
Who cares. We’re all fucked anyway: http://tpzoo.wordpress.com/2008/09/30/stephen-spoonamore-2008-interview-paper-ballots-please/. Repeat: we’re all fucked. Bet as much money as you can on McCain and at least become one with his Reich.
(Seriously, this is riot-makin’ territory if it’s true.)
edgydrifter: And he’s a Hollywood (FL) elite! No wonder he wants Obama to win!
Those wingnuts are hilarious. I love this one, from nationalrepublicantrust.com:
How did Obama beat Hillary for the nomination? Well, using a loophole in Democratic rules, he was able to rack up large majorities in caucus states where he outspent and out organized her.
But in large, contested states she won almost every time. Why? Because when Democrats heard what Obama really stood for, they turned on him. Make no mistake about it: If we let Americans know the truth about Obama, John McCain can win this election!
See? Having no organization and no money is a strategy, haters! McCain can win this thing!
AnnieGetYourFun: Ugh. I must remember in the future not to take your advice so soon after lunch. It’s just further evidence of the Chambraigne Axiom: Idiots will believe anything as long as it’s exactly what they want to hear.
I don’t understand, is there some racial stereotype about Arabs being bad drivers? I thought it was just illegal Mexicans and Chinese who were supposed to be bad drivers.
Clearly, the Republicans believe that the government has no need to record the names and addresses of any illegal aliens currently residing in the US.
Oh, well this is now the top story on foxnews.com:
http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/10/20/obama-praised-searing-timely-book-ayers/
I think they are actively trying to get rightwing nutjobs to kill him. Fuck, acorn is already getting death threats from them.

Hopey is doomed once this gets out. I mean, as the head of Florida’s DMV, he personally took both the written and driving test for the notorious terrorist Mohammed Atta, assuring he could drive legally and enter strip clubs without a hassle throughout the sunshine state. Oh, Obama was actually a state senator in Illinois at the time, not the head of the Florida DMV? Nevermind.
As I posted elsewhere on Wonkette… I fear for the future of my country!
I fear that no matter who wins, it is now ok to be overtly racist. I worry that when Obama DOES win, that some of us that back Obama and have Obama yard signs and bumper stickers will be the target of vandalism, personal, and/or physical attacks. I worry that is god forbid mcCain should manage to steal this election, it will be ok to be a racist and those of us with yardsigns and bumperstickers will be attacked.
As an Arizonan, McCain sickens me. He allows this sort of negativity and covert as well as overt racist ads and attacks to continue, yet he tries to conjure up Barry Goldwater, a staunch conservative that would not have stood for such hateful attacks.
azw88: No, it’s only OK to be overtly racist if you preface your bullshit racist blather with “I’m no racist, but…”
Fine, fine. A terrorist under Obama could conceivably get a driver’s license. On the other hand, two terrorists piloted two fucking planes into the Twin Towers under Bush’s watch. Do they really want to go there?
Wow. Death threats to ACORN. That’s like threatening to kill grandma.
azw88:
I think what you’re saying is a fairy tale. Oh, sorry. Forgot that phrase was racist too. Does someone have an English to Racist dictionary handy?
Clearly, the only people driving cars into buildings in America should be senior citizens.
edgydrifter: This explains everything, yes? Doesn’t everyone who has to visit the Florida DMV declare a Jihad?
So let me get this straight, Atta could get a license, but Obama cannot?
Who is Barack Obama?
I doubt he could get a driver’s license. He never learned how to brake and park.
azw88: I think this kind of thing is best disinfected by sunlight.
McCain just doesn’t want IDs for illegals cuz it would give them legitimacy, when all he wants from them is to pick lettuce, non-union like.
WIDTAP: If it’s anything like the Oregon DMV, I can understand why a person might declare Deth to Amerika after spending an afternoon there. Maybe he just figured an elaborate hijacking/terrorist attack scheme was faster and more satisfying than trying to get his damned license renewed.
greatgooglymoogly:WTF you should read this on its super villain evil.

Wow wow wow…I’m trying to find some snark…however I’m so sickened that I just keep throwing up a little in my mouth.
The only thing that keeps my little light of Hopey burning is that in 15 days the Hopeytpoia Fest (with live Unicorns) will commence and the racist, fearmongering whores from the small-minded RETHUG RIGHT WING NAZI’s will all shrivel up and choke on their own vile!
Hopey Don’t Fail Us Now!
TGY: ‘ads’. Whatever. I can has hibernation until the 4th? No, I must go like a Chaucer pilgrim to D.C. and stare at people who are probably voting for McCain.
Outstando: +1
edgydrifter: “I’m no racist, but…” is the new “…not that there’s anything wrong with that.”
After letting illegals hold licenses so they may lowride their pimpmobiles through white neighborhoods to steal our virgin daughters, Barry will take away our guns. It follows.
Question for Sen. McCain:
If these illegal Mexicans can’t drive, how the hell are they supposed to get here to mow my lawn?
greatgooglymoogly: My wife’s been enraged about machine counted ballots for months, and I have not paid attention (mostly) until now, thanks to your link. Spoonamore is my new hero. And we are all fucking doomed.
loquaciousmusic: “He wants to strip the FICA tax cap off every worker making more than $97,500.”
That income-redistributing BASTARD, trying to make salt-of-the-earth, hard-working, six-figure executives pay as high a percentage of their income into Social Security as those Lucky Duck poors. Terrorist!
What’s scary is that if the economy wasn’t an heroing itself right now, this shit would probably work.
bitchincamaro: Dude, you need to get HBO. Hacking Democracy has been blowing that trumpet for years now.
It looks like the license shown is a fake. It does not bear the license number that is reported in this text “Pilots Mohamed Atta (Fl Driv Lic A300540683210), Ziad Jarrah (Fl Driv Lic J600997751710) and some of the other 9/11 hijacker pals obtained Florida drivers licenses at the Sarasota County Tax Collectors Office in the fall of 2000 and then were issued duplicate drivers licenses when they moved to the East Coast of Florida in early 2001.” from an October 1 post at http://www.alipac.us/ftopict-133354.html.

Hairy Reed: Has Saxby had his entrails removed by Sen Craig’s grappling-hook shaped member, twisted around a stick, and barbecued until crispy? No? Well this should happen.
Cruelty to animals laws don’t apply to Sen Asshole (Asshole-GA) and the NIH doesn’t require you treat him as well as white lab rats. There are, after all, some things lab rats won’t do.
NoWireHangers: And Billy Joel.
This is just too much. Wouldn’t finding out who’s living where HELP with national security? My head hurts.
