- HOUSE TURNS INTO RACIST LYING BLOODBATH FROM HELL: What a great last graf in this New York Times write-up of the hot mess between House Democrats today: “Racial overtones also appeared to creep into the intraparty dispute. One African-American Democrat pointed out that the seven Blue Dogs who were holding up the bill in the Energy and Commerce Committee were ‘a nondiverse group’ of white men.” Why did Barack Obama say this? [NYT]
I’m sure that they were diverse in some respects. Height, tie color, etc?
The Congressional Black Caucus just found out how much the insurance lobby payola IS and they’re mad as hell they’re not getting any.
“Blue dogs hate Barak people” -Kanye west
But did Barry O say that they acted “stupidly”?
Everyone knows that “stupidly” is Secret Democrat Black Caucus Racist Hate Speech for “KILL WHITEY!”
If the Congressional Black Caucus doesn’t stop exhibiting such loud and tumultuous behavior, Sgt. Crowley is going to go into the House and arrest them.
Let’s not forget Michelle’s thesis at Princeton….
Representative Keith Ellison expressed his displeasure by referring to Representative Mike Ross of Arkansas as a “Cracka-Ass Cracka!”
Representative Ross was unable to respond as his office indicated that he was out of town attending a family reunion in hopes of meeting a girl with whom he could inbreed.
Nondiverse, my ass. They probably all have different names…
Racism is when blacks cater to blacks. Reverse racism is when blacks complain about racism. Double reverse racism is when blacks complain about whites complaining about blacks’ racism. Blue dogs are always white.
Shit, now I’m confused.
Institutionally speaking the House has always pretty much always been racist and lying, so adding a bloodbath isn’t that much of a change.
And while we’re on the subject of racism I’ve noticed today every police organization in the country has come out in defense of the Cambridge police department. I only have radio but the leaders of said organizations sound mighty white to me. Anyone seen any black police commanders commenting on the subject?
OzoneTom: top, bottom, etc.?
chascates: No. That would be double reverse racism, ne c’est pas?
Waiting on Blue Dogs more likely to give Waxman Blue Balls out of sheer frustration.
jasper f. krone: Oh right. I was thinking “Democrats” — but it’s true that he was talking about “blue-dogs” who have a lot of Republican habits…
haff breed muslin communist Barry Santino should never have been allowed on Project Runway!
PS:the lady MS. Sheila Dixon: c’est “n’est-ce pas” …just thought I would offer unsolicited french tutoring there LOL.
Oh, Jesus, somebody had to say it so I’ll say it– Blue Dog Democrats don’t care about black people.
The Waxman Cometh.. er, ignoreth and bypasseth.
Crank Tango: i knew that. also.
chascates: blackamericaweb.com
Sometimes I stare in the mirror and cry about how non-diverse I am.
OzoneTom: They are also diverse in that they receive differing amounts of money from health insurance companies.
If you calibrate the words of the story differently it turns into a piece about Paul Simon eating an ice cream cone with a scoop of vanilla and a scoop of chocolate and a scoop of strawberry and everybody is happy because Sonny Bono is still alive singing songs with Cher.
the lady MS. Sheila Dixon: The answer to my question is from blackamericaweb.com
Ronald Hampton, executive director of the 15,000-member National Black Police Association told McClatchy Newspapers that Obama was “right on point.”
“A post-racial society doesn’t exist,” Hampton, a retired Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police officer, told the newspaper chain. “We’re still in a civil rights era. What happened to Gates happens to poor black and brown people every day.”
I’m a 55-year-old white guy and even I realize that racial profiling is typical police procedure. Thirty years ago I would get questioned by police simply for having long hair. Anyone (of course I’m mean white people here) who thinks this doesn’t happen either doesn’t have any black friends or is living in a bubble.
chascates: I have a black friend who lives in a bubble. I am the most post-racial white person in America.
Personally, I am English/German/French/American Indian/African mix, call myself White, and I can’t stand Italians/Spaniards/Greeks, and am a little uncertain about Poles and other Slavs. So don’t tell me there isn’t diversity among White people! We hate each other as much as we hate anybody else — that’s equality!
Could we please get word of a new Republican sex scandal.
Please.
Newt & Bobby Jindal would be fun.
Isn’t the Black Caucus also non-diverse?
Kingbee: Oh yeah, well I’m an Irish Jew Mescan. When I’m drunk I want to sue someone and cut my grass.
Aren’t each of the seven a differnt shade of blue from the others?
Arf sez Sandy!
Why is Harry Potter hosting “Countdown”?
Now that we live in post-racial U.S. America, should we expect to see more jugheaded Muggles lose their TV hosting gigs to pointy-hatted wizards? Or, is this just some sort of marketing stunt gone horribly awry?
He’s talking sooo fast! I can’t keep up it!
donner_froh: Two happened to be ‘indigo dogs’, so their viewpoints automatically don’t matter.
Extemporanus: Do not mock my imaginary boyfriend, Richard Wolff.
The lack of diversity refers to the fact that the Blue Dogs are all wearing matching asshats. Also.
El Pinche: I’m Irish, Scottish, English, German, French and Tasmanian Aboriginal. When I get drunk I just beat myself into a pulp. My wife is Vietnamese/Chinese, so I’m forbidding our sons from ever touching alcohol.
Kingbee: El Pinche: Numbat Dundee: I’m Irish, Scottish, Welsh, English, Dutch, Cherokee, Pomeranian (German and Polish). I keep invading myself and taking my land. And chasing my tail.
Smoke Filled Roommate: Two of them are folk/rock LGBT activist lesbians? Pretty edgy for conservative democrats.

desertwind: TEXARKANA, Ark. — A federal jury has convicted evangelist Tony Alamo on charges he took underage girls across state lines for sex.Alamo had denied the charges, claiming they came from a Vatican-led conspiracy against his ministry. Also because Jesus is in him.

Best I can do for you today. Maybe tomorrow there will be better.
showmeonthedoll: I’m Russian Jewish so I run around my apartment trying to pillage it while singing cute little songs about fiddlers and the importance of following tradition
lying sack of shit dems anyway!! god, can’t they do anything right?no don’t answer that, they can’t!
showmeonthedoll: WOLFFERINES!!1!
In God’s oven I’m 1/4 tsp. Italian, 1/4 tsp. Slavic, and my father was adopted..
Which means I carry tomatoes inside my babushka and delight in smashing them with my fists for a good marinara that Mary herself would be proud of. Then everything fades to black.
OMG, you guys. Bill Maher had Anthony Woods on his show tonight. Woods is a - get ready - gay black Iraq vet (two tours) with a degree from Westpoint and a Master’s from Harvard. AND HE’S FREAKING GORGEOUS.
I think I just saw our next President.
Smoke Filled Roommate: You carry tomatoes inside your grandmother? That may be too weird even for here.

Barack Obama could not have been the “African-American Democrat” quoted because he is a Kenyan.
Blue Dogs Can’t Dance
“HOUSE TURNS INTO RACIST LYING BLOODBATH FROM HELL”
Now that is a lovely lead-in.
Irish, Scottish and Jewish here. A cheap drunk.
I’m Irish and Italian and from Boston…Could I be an Irish thug informant or an Italian mafioso with a stupid nickname?
Speaking of Smug Assholes: When is Bill Maher going to get arrested?
Paging Sgt. Crowley! Paging Sgt. Crowley! Irish-Jewish Pseudo-Intellectual & So-Called “Comedian” spotted at corner of 7th & Figueroa. Approach with caution! Proximity may result in projectile vomiting! Proceed Code 3!
It is no secret that blue, Canine-Americans hate black, African-Americans.
I’m Irish-Swedish-Greek-Chinese. When I get drunk…wait. What was the question?
x111e7thst: A federal jury has convicted evangelist Tony Alamo
This is what happens when people are given names they should only have in bad 70’s TV shows. Let that be a warning to you breeders.
All this talk of disparity, dogs, and bloodbaths has made me hungry. Its like standing over the decomposed body of a shooting victim while eating a hot dog. Yummy!
I have Russian Jewish, German Jewish, calvinist heritage, raised in Mejico, so of course I’m a self-loathing Bujew-Pagan
One of the Blue doggies is the diverse John Salazar who is a rep from Southern Colorado. I think he has some ’splaining to do to his older bro Ken who is in the Kenyan’s cabinet. Both of them combined have less macho than Harry Reid.
desertwind: Ew. No more Newt scandals.
Darkness: It’s worse than you think. Tony Alamo was born Bernie LaZar Hoffman to Jewish-Romanian parents.At various points in his life he has also gone by Marcus Abad and Mark Hoffman. But I think the religion, more than the breeding, is what rotted his mind.
chascates: “Blue dogs are always white.” Hell no. Charlie Melancon (D-Dog Patch, La.) is Cajun.
x111e7thst: That’s just scratching the surface. His first stint in the big house was for selling sequined jean jackets (for Jesus!) and forgetting to mention his profits to the IRS. But the best bit was that after his second wife died, he and his acolytes toted her unburied/non-cremated corpse around…for 16 years! Oh, Tony, Tony, Tony.
Seeing as how I’m a 100% 3rd gen Italian-American Catholic from Long Fuckin Island, it’s really quite amazing that I’m even posting on here, and not calling some AM radio station from my car complaining about creeping socialism or the Mets.
/considered a liberal because I dont blame Omar Minaya completely

ShaqsDong: Did you ever own an IROC-Z?
Major Strasser: What is your nationality?
Rick: I’m a drunkard.
Captain Renault: That makes Rick a citizen of the world.
facehead: Crist later thanked Ubele personally, reportedly stating that Ubele’s assistance was “mighty white of him”.
facehead: We used to say that IROC stood for ‘Italian Retard Out Cruisin”..
Smoke Filled Roommate: Ah … the good ole days…
facehead: Crist: You don’t actually think we read all this crap before we sign it, do you?
It was alleged that 74-year-old Tony Alamo took a girl as young as nine across state lines, but that particular incident might be from way back in 1994 when Alamo was only 59, so it should probably just be considered a “youthful indiscretion.”
