STORY OF THE YEAR

  • TANCREDO RACIST DUDE IS LIKE FOUR: Marcus Epstein, the executive director of Tom Tom Tancredo and Bay Buchanan’s PAC, Team America — *ahem* HAHAHAHA like the movie — and also the executive director of Pat Buchanan and Bay Buchanan’s (other) PAC, The American Cause, is going to law school this fall, to karate chop and shout the n-word at more black ladies! And Bay Buchanan says that Epstein was a 21-year-old at the time of the 2007 incident, meaning he is now, what, NINE? Donate money to this young clown’s various racist groups!

  1. Brendan M. says at 3:24 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Yeah, I remember when I was twenty-one. I committed some pretty wild hate crimes back then. Kids!

  2. Come here a minute says at 3:26 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Mr. Jefferson’s university sure is proud of that admissions decision.

  3. hobospacejunkie says at 3:28 pm, June 1st, 2009

    So these idiots found the youngest non-teen racist freakshow available and made him ED (heh) of 2 PACs because why? Are there any non-kid-diddling adult republicans left anywhere?

  4. memzilla says at 3:28 pm, June 1st, 2009

    The nut doesn’t fall far from the squirrel, HEGNNNHHH? I’ll believe he’s changed his intolerant ways when he gives Harvey Fierstein a rusty trombone. Also.

  5. thejesusandmarycheney says at 3:30 pm, June 1st, 2009

    I judo-tossed a dirty paki when I was 21, myself. Let he who is without sin…

  6. hobospacejunkie says at 3:30 pm, June 1st, 2009

    The worst I did at 21 is run up a huge bill on an MBNA credit card & not pay it back. Fuck you, MBNA, bankrupt motherfuckers.

  7. FormerDCite says at 3:31 pm, June 1st, 2009

    What does George Jefferson have to do with this? Oh, yeah… He’s a N****R who needs a Karate chop too.

  8. BillyClubb says at 3:31 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Yeah, he was 21 when he committed the crime in 2007. Given the fact that he’s a Republican that means he was about 12 emotionally.

  9. Crab1 says at 3:31 pm, June 1st, 2009

    hobospacejunkie: Because he has no gag reflex.

  10. How can he be judged for that when he was basically just a kid? It was two whole years ago; stop living in the past!

    It’ll be a few years off, but state bar associations require felony disclosures & a background check before allowing one to join the bar. Of people I went to school with, the most serious convictions were for pot or DUIs. Wonder how they’ll react to a hate crime conviction. Oh well, there’s always Alabama and Texas.

  11. Crab1 says at 3:33 pm, June 1st, 2009

    BillyClubb: so he is emotionally older than Rush, Hannity, O’Reilly, et al.?

  12. lizard scum says at 3:33 pm, June 1st, 2009

    This guy’s martial art Team America sound way funnier than the movie.

  13. ManchuCandidate says at 3:34 pm, June 1st, 2009

    The Buchanans remind me of the Brother/Sister Couple from the movie “The People Under the Stairs”, but more creepy.

  14. Marcus is so violent it has Christopher Hitchens loading up on his dutch courage.

  15. hobospacejunkie says at 3:35 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Surely UVA can find a way to revoke this guy’s acceptance. Though it is a college founded by a slave-owning slave-diddler, so they’ll probably increase his financial aid as a result.

  16. whiskey tango foxtrot says at 3:36 pm, June 1st, 2009

    He does look awfully young to be karate-chopping negroes and going off to law school. Look at that face in his picture! He still has all his baby fat!

  17. Serolf Divad says at 3:38 pm, June 1st, 2009

    ph7: Nice find!

  18. Serolf Divad says at 3:39 pm, June 1st, 2009

    hobospacejunkie:

    As a graduate of UVA (grad school) let me be the first to say: if they revoked this guy’s acceptance just for being a racist prick, they’d have to kick out half their student body.

  19. lizard scum says at 3:40 pm, June 1st, 2009

    ph7: You’ve got the biracial racist and the non-American American policy pundit.

  20. Advocatus_Diaboli says at 3:42 pm, June 1st, 2009

    hobospacejunkie: wouldn’t it be more fun to let him suffer through 3 years of law school and then never get admitted?

  21. Zadig says at 3:42 pm, June 1st, 2009

    I said it already today, but these events make much more sense if you use Tenacious D’s “Karate Song” as the context. Ms. [REDACTED] and Kyle Gass are partners in schnitzel theft.

  22. Come here a minute says at 3:44 pm, June 1st, 2009
  23. thejesusandmarycheney says at 3:45 pm, June 1st, 2009

    “I graduated from UVA, n****r. It’s not a charm school.”

  24. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 3:49 pm, June 1st, 2009

    whiskey tango foxtrot: Look at that face in his picture! He still has all his baby fat!

    I’m not surprised, given that Epstein probably feasts on at least four deep-fat fried infants daily. With a nice bernaise and a side of braised haricot verts.

  25. Texan Bulldoggette says at 3:50 pm, June 1st, 2009

    ManchuCandidate: “The Buchanans remind me of the Brother/Sister Couple from the movie “The People Under the Stairs”, but more creepy.”

    I was thinking more Flowers in the Attic, where the mom imprisons the kids in the attic & the brother & sister end up, you know…

    Or if you want to stay on the creepy family theme: There was also that X Files episode where the brothers kept their mother under the floor & only let her out to diddle her.

  26. suchsweetthunder says at 3:53 pm, June 1st, 2009

    I’d feel sorry for the kid if he wasn’t a bigot. He’ll never get a job anywhere in the legal profession. Someone should let him know before he doubles down on the 120k worth of loans. Firms will give him interviews just to point and laugh.

  27. Wellstones Ghost says at 3:53 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Didn’t George, “I want to be president MACCACA!!!”, Allen go there?

    SHARE with Virginia Law how you feel about this. Here’s admissions and alumni. Be politer than Epstein, always.

  28. hobospacejunkie says at 3:56 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Advocatus_Diaboli: To quote Phil Hartmann as Ed McMahon, “You are correct. Yes.”

  29. McDuff says at 3:57 pm, June 1st, 2009

    If one definition of insanity is repeating the same action over and over in hope of different outcome, isn’t another definition of insanity being a doughy white boy and shouting the n-word as you walk down the street in a majority black city?

  30. OReillysVibrator says at 3:58 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Should make for a fun hypo in crimlaw.

  31. Wellstones Ghost says at 3:59 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Texan Bulldoggette:

    and manchucandidate

    How about “Endless Love” 50 years AFTER?” eww

  32. FormerDCite says at 4:00 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Mr. Epstein looks just old enough to get sexted by Mark Foley in the picture.

  33. OReillysVibrator says at 4:00 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Day 1: “WHAT? You mean the niggers can enter into valid contracts?!”

  34. pat robertsons personal trainer says at 4:02 pm, June 1st, 2009

    if you were a 5′3″ 21 year old “man” and your best friend was a 60 year old mormon woman, then you’d carry around a lot of aggression too. and try committing a hate crime when you’re 5′3″ without resorting to eastern fighting disciplines. The proffer does not say whether he had to leap to strike to her head, but my guess is yes (or he was on stilts).

    bay buchanan or tancredo’s racist lackey. i can’t decide who would need to get laid more. and for god’s sake, the “crime” was exactly two years after the terrorist attacks on london. he was just tryin’ to protect you. you’re welcome.

    As for you, UVA, Jesus Christ. Allowing James Spader & John Cusack to pretend to be two of your law school students was a much better idea than this. Hell, actually enrolling Spader & Cusack would be a much better idea.

  35. hobospacejunkie says at 4:12 pm, June 1st, 2009

    pat robertsons personal trainer: Holy fartsack Batman! Bay B converted from the papacy to the ‘angel’ Moroni (in 1976.) How fucked up must she be? Then again, it makes perfect sense. How was she to know Mormons would afford negroes the status of ‘human’ just a few years later?

  36. Mike Steele says at 4:15 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Big Tent Mike, here. OK, even I can’t take this. First of all, the only reason Bay Buchanan is a Republican is that she knows she looks so much like a man, that getting some dick is assured in the Republican Party. Calling her a c*nt would be too kind. I’m fantasizing right now about a black man karate chopping the shit out of her, and then getting probation.

    Yeah, Epstein has “come through a lot”. That little prick will be lucky to avoid getting the shit kicked out of him at UVA. Any UVA brothers out there reading this? This slimy little racist needs someone to slap the shit out of him.

    Sorry for the absence of snark. Some people just really do deserve a real life beatdown. I’m sorry I won’t be in Virginia any time soon.

  37. This douche was my roommate freshman year at William and Mary. He seemed to be haunted by an air of ridiculous oftentimes malignant happenstance that now has clearly proven itself to be karma.

  38. And it isn’t the first time he’s been charged with assault:

  40. MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend says at 4:37 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Hopefully,* Character and Fitness will do their jobs and keep this asshole out of the bar. Then, as payback for being a moran, he can pay off his student loans and never become a lawyer.

    *I hope but I know this won’t happen. Sad.

  41. nestor says at 4:44 pm, June 1st, 2009

    McDuff: He’s half Jewish, half Korean. Srsly.

  42. prdr:

    Hard to decipher, but he was noll prossed to assault and battery, but plead to a lesser charge of “public swearing and intoxication”?

    Looks like he likes to get drunk, yell profanties, and hit people. Once in 04, and again in 07. If he keeps on the 3 year cycle, we can expect a drunken Epstein to assualt his torts professor at UVA.

  43. Ha! Just arrived in my inbox:

    Dear XXX,

    Marcus Epstein is not an enrolled student at the University of Virginia School of Law, nor do we expect his enrollment anytime in the future.

    Half-Jewish, half Korean — he runs a dry cleaners, but there’s a bookie joint in back. After karate chopping a black woman, he claimed whiplash. Wants South Korea expanded to the 50th parallel, but he’ll come down. Who ordered the corned beef and kimchi?

  55. x111e7thst says at 6:03 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Mr Blifil: Maybe the negress in question was really old and really small. And blind or perhaps wheelchairbound.

    ph7: You can get the court records at this site:
    http://epwsgdp1.courts.state.va.us/gdcourts
    (Choose Williamsburg/James City County General District court.) It looks like he pled guilty to trespassing and did 14 days of a 90-day sentence and paid a fine of $91 in exchange for the other charges being dropped.

  57. Jukesgrrl says at 7:00 pm, June 1st, 2009

    Bay Buchanan has three sons all of whom are in their early- to mid-twenties. Could they be responsible for this douche? I’d start investigating on one of those FaceSpace things, but I’m too old to spend all day looking at photos of drunk young bitters.

    yeah me!

    ***

    Yeah so I guess he didn’t disclose that on his application (probably) and as a result he will not be attending Mr. Jefferson’s university, unfortunately. On the plus side, he’ll have a lot more time to just stone cold karate chop some black people!

    I got the SAME reply ph7 and here was my response, thanks in advance ( I really don’t think you should quote the dean without permission, I did not in other posts).

    “Marcus Epstein is not an enrolled student at the University of Virginia School of Law, nor do we expect him anytime in the future. In the future, if you have any questions about Admissions, feel free to contact me directly.”

    My response was “everybody needs a second chance, but at a MUCH MUCH lower tier school.”

    maybe Korea?
