What is wrong with Barack Obama campaign manager Jim Messina, that he thinks Latinos are all about chimichangas? Latinos are all about TACOS, you moron. How racially insensitive can this guy possibly be? Let’s check Messina’s original comment for further outrage!
Feel free to notice the swelling in your eyeball veins any second now:
DIOS. He’s going around quoting lines from the staff racists at the Washington Post. APOLOGIZE FOR QUOTING KKK GRAND WIZARD DANA MILBANK, HATER SLOB:
“The fact that the campaign manager of President Obama’s reelection campaign thinks it’s appropriate to disseminate insulting jokes about the Hispanic community is a perfect example of the kind of empty rhetoric that characterizes this White House’s so-called outreach to Latinos. We demand that Mr. Messina immediately apologize and we ask that President Obama disavow his campaign manager’s ridiculous statement,” said Jennifer Sevilla Korn, executive director of the conservative Hispanic Leadership Network, in a statement.
These people with their “empty rhetoric.” HOW DARE THEY.
But let us not miss an opportunity to double our outrage, dear readers. Gird yourselves and then read with disgust Milbank’s original cruel joke from his column, the moral equivalent of ten million recreational abortions:
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) spoke about the wonders of his state. “The lettuce in your salad this month almost certainly came from Arizona,” McCain said. “It’s also believed that the chimichanga has its origin in Arizona.”
The chimichanga? It may be the only thing Republicans have left to offer Latinos.
Oh god. Of course. John McCain had to bring up ARIZONA again. No wonder everyone’s offended. [TPM/ The Hill]

"all about chimichangas?"
What about burritos? And how does this effect Taco bell?
And flan! What about the flan!?
I wish I understood all this Spain language. Then I could find out what they're talking about on Univision.
You watch Mexican soap operas with the sound on?
Chimi Hendrix was Mexican????
Persecution fantasies? They may be the only things republicans have to offer America.
And the hispanics are Catholics, too, and Obama is forcing them all to take birth control and abort their fetuses, so in solidarity with the persecuted hispanic catholics, today, all republicans are papist wetbacks.
Tomorrow, they'll suffer their usual lapse of memory and begin beating any brown person they see with their handmade malacca canes, but that's tomorrow.
As has been shown for over a decade now, all the GOP has to offer is fear itself.
…all the GOP has to offer is fear of itself.
fixed.
And faux outrage.
Chimichangas aren't even Messican, they were invented by Monica Flin in Arizona in 1922.
Just days after Walnuts demanded "just finish the danged meal!!!!".
I call bullshit. My friends in Mexico had lard or there would be no chips for Nachos. They had the burrito, are you trying to tell me they needed some gringo with the decidedly un-hispanic name of Monica Flin to put the two together?
Uh…nachos come from 7-Eleven…
Walnuts has to say "Arizona" as often as possible, lest we forget who he is. Better "That old bastard from AZ" than "Who's that?"
"That old bastard from AZ who was born in Panama."
Who?
El Senatore Juan McCain
And who was brought up in Viginia.
lest he forget who he is.
/fixed.
"That old bastard from AZ" also works for Jan Brewer.
"That old asstard from AZ" works better.
Uh… it is actually taking a stab at Repugnants and the fact that they are the ones that think Hispanics are all about the Chimmies…
Aw jeez, you're one of those context/sentence structure/punctuation nerds, huh?
STOP READING FOR COMPREHENSION!
I know… a dying breed… and to be honest, where has it ever gotten me.
You know who ELSE was racist against Latinos?
Lee Atwater? Oh, wait, I'm not supposed to answer my own question…
Taco Bell?
Jan Brewer? Nah, too easy…. let me think….
The French?
Speedy Gonzalez?
I'm not sure about Speedy. Slo-poke Rodriquez on the other hand…..
Francisco Franco?
Sharon Angle? Wait, did you say Latino or Asian?
The Visigoths?
Pete Hoestra? oh…wait….
Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst?
Remember the Chimichanga!
Charlton Heston?
Get your hands off me, you damn dirty Latino!
Leonard Bernstein?
Sheriff Joe?
The United Fruit Company?
William Walker?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Walker_(fili…
Teddy Roosevelt?
Jose Jiminez?
“The lettuce in your salad this month almost certainly came from Arizona,”
AAgghhh! There's Arizona in my salad! Build the danged fence!
Just as bad as rodent droppings if you ask me.
Demand the lettuce produce its papers!
Don't worry, it's green. Only the browns have to produce papers.
I don't know, I have had green leafy material where papers are very important.
Thats what the cops always call it in their reports, "green, leafy material, in a glassine bag of the type I have been trained to know is commonly used in drug transactions."
I can tell you've read too many police reports…
Let's just hope the Arizona lettuce doesn't give you Jan Brewer's rich leathery complexion.
God bless her, she looks like a tanned scrotum
*Should* I ask how you might know this?
MissTaken reapplies sunblock for the second time today.
To your scrotum? I'm starting to rethink my crush on you.
If by scrotum you mean boobies, then yes.
You mean you don't want to look like a shriveled brown raisin by the time you turn 50?
Hey, hey, hey! I resemble that remark.
It is rich corinthian leather.
Jezus, girl, we really DO think alike! Read my comment.
Well, you know Gemini is the twins. You must be my other me.
You're making her sound like Ricardo Montalban should be advertising her skin for carseat covers.
Does McCain have immigrants toss his Arizona salad?
Well he can't reach back there himself….ugh, gross.
It's always highly entertaining to watch you gross yourself out.
They, the Republicans, could have offered them the Romney's lawn work, but that was before Mittens learned he was running for public office and then he couldn't have that.
Newt wants to put the poor's offspring to work cleaning the johns. It's a short bus ride from there to the commercial lawnmower.
Is PETE HOEKSTRA the Pete RMONEY's referencing when he says "I'm running for election for Pete's sake"? Because that could be *very* weird.
GOP Latino Twitter feed… so that went out to like, what, 50 people?
And it's in English because they are very racially sensitive.
Actually, 2800 followers!!!111one.
A fun game might be to find other ridiculous Twitter feeds with more followers than this.
The Farts.com Twitter feed: 3400 followers.
All Things Diapers & Prostitutes David Vitter's Twitter: 13k+ followers.
Um, pretty much anything that's been on Twitter for a while has more followers than that, dood.
All of them old Cubans, yes.
And all of them aging Florida Cubans. The rest (including their children) want nothing to do with the Know Nothing Party.
Not really. It depends on how rabidly anti-Castro the family is. If the patriarch of the family throws stuff at the TV when Castro's face appears on the screen, chances are his children vote republican automatically. Thankfully, most of them are low information voters and rarely turn up to vote.
Cubans aren't getting more Republican over the generations, just sayin'.
The combined writing staff for The Daily Show and The Colbert Report.
Jean and the kids at the Freedom School tell me I should be nonviolent, but when I see idiotic behavior like this… I just go BERSERK!!!
Don't worry he saw the light necessary to survive in Arizona and became a conservative republican. I guess now it is just Billy Jerk.
We demand that Mr. Messina immediately apologize and we ask that President Obama disavow his campaign manager’s ridiculous statement,
Who wrote this comedy sketch? It's brilliant.
But what about Chihuahuas?
Do you say it with an authentic Mexican accent like Bender:

Yo Quiero Taco Bell.
Hey RNC, is it racist against Latinos to say I like chimichangas?
If you like eating them off the chiseled abs of your Latino gardener like Cindy McCain does? No.
But nothing is better than those pink tacos over there, in that Arizona where the liberties of those forefathers is still being second-amendmented with those surveyors marks of that freedom of conscience which was oh so important to those of the founders of our liberty in this great land that is the land of that freedom and liberty that those troops are fightin' so hard to protect, God bless 'em, with those precious second amendment arms also.
But they're trying to chase out all the brown tacos; which is too bad because they're delicious as well.
I see what you did there.
I thought they were all pink.
Shootin' those guns, ringin' those Taco Bells…
This is like the world's stupidest game of telephone.
ELISHA GRAY LIBEL!
Obviously, Dana Milbank is also the mayor of East Hartford Connecticut
"Who's on first?"
"Racist!"
too soon!
Of course that's racist; not all Asians play baseball.
I'm amazed at how well they do play baseball with all those slide rules and abicuses (abici?) hanging out of their pockets and shit.
Pocket protectors, mate.
T
aco.
Laugh all you want, but Rick Perry would have made the Frito Bandito his running mate.
Are you sure? Speedy Gonzales was thinking of making a move.
The Bandito is pro choice isn't he?
“The lettuce in your salad this month almost certainly came from Arizona"
Still miles better than Alaskan Word Salad
I work all day for the sugar in my tay, myyself.
Shortr RNC: I know! Let's replace authentic Mexican cuisine with this "made for Americans, by Americans" concoction and then tell the Mexicans "take it or leave it"!
Anybody want a fetus taco?
Mmmmmmm, Fetacos……
Jumbaco!
Just finished one, but I may want another for dinner.
Hold the pickles.
Enough with the CPAC after parties already!
Personally I prefer the fetus nachos, with salsa, guacamole and melted cheese; they're delicious.
Next mass posting to Facebook:
OMG! These sickos on wonkette.com were posting about how they ate Mexican babies in tacos!
(Stupid people, it's fetalchangas we're eating today.)
Yo quiero, Taco Bell?
Does it come with a government mandated "magic wand"?
It's Messican, so it comes with a magic Juan.
Why not? This IS the Wonketz.
So, the RNC is saying that for many Latinos, they have nothing to offer?
Or, as it appears, they have nothing to offer any of the other demographics except for the wealthy, white, Xtian, male.
Chimichanga libel!
All Republicans, wherever they may live, are citizens of Arizona. And therefore, as a Republican, I take pride in the words "Ich bin ein Chimichanga!"
Looking at the crowd, it may be safer to say "Ich bin ein Hamburger".
…and Republicans pretending to actually care is a much bigger joke on Hispanics.
DEMOCRATIC PLANTATION LIBEL!!1!1
Oh, like the Latino community doesn't know that. Trust me, the gusanos who vote Republican up here are the same gusanos who oppress the Indios down there.
No, that's not what I meant, wouldja get your mind out of the gutter?
I really hate the Republicans, and they are being really stupid about this since the joke wasn't about Hispanics but their own Latino outreach…but I really don't want to have to defend Dana Milbank, either.
How do you say shrill cunt in messican? Sevilla Korn?
'Sarah Palin'?
Look out – Newell will have your cabeza for that one.
Why? Did he bring the Gawker commenting standards back with him?Sent from my iPhone
I don't know – he snapped at someone the other day over it. I was suprised.
He was being chivalrous – that meme developed in his absence
Ay, un gato malodoro!
Spanish bee guy win!
Well of course anyone who points out that conservatives are racist against Latinos are the real racists.
THAT'S RACIST!!1!
THAT'S NOT RACIAL TRANSCENDENCE!!
Kids on the beat, kids on the street
BEAT KIDS, BEAT KIDS
How else will they learn?
I wonder who planted, cultivated, and picked the lettuce? I doubt Arizonians did much of that.
Juan McCain will pay you $50/hour to do it, though.
Thank you, Jesus, for these wonderful vegetables which we are about to eat. -De nada.
Sen Russell Pearce just introduced legislation requiring restaurants to show customers sonograms of the insides of chimichangas.
You DON'T want to know what's in the chorizo!
What until the GOP finds out that different groups of Latinos eat different kinds of foods. It is going to BLOW their minds.
Wait until they find out that some Latinos eat just like real Americans do. The Twitterverse will explode.
I've heard some of them even don't even speak Latin.
~
Racism is getting more difficult. I bet the GOP wishes for the "Good Old Days" when they could call everyone not like them a n*****
When did they stop?
Wait until the GOP finds out that there *are* different groups of Latinos.
“It’s also believed that the chimichanga has its origin in Arizona.”
But that didn't stop them from deporting it.
I believe the chimichanga had a look around and self-deported.
You liberal idiots and your "context" and "full quotations".
Since Loggins went out on his own, Messina has gone to shit.
You could say it has entered the "Danger Zone".
I hear the's teaming up with Kenny Rogers and Kenny G for "The Three Kennys Tour".
I'm not sure about where the chimichanga came from? I KNOW my Gonorrhea came from Arizona.
I usually say, "Never let your meat loaf" but in your case…
So the chimichanga is the new Dick Cheney's lesbian daughter?
I thought that was the meatless taco?
I do believe that would be the pink taco.
Lettuce pray!
Lettuce Spray = the shite currently coming out of Walnuts' mouth
Sevilla Korn? Sevilla her maiden name?
She sounds….brownish.
Were there a lot of barbers in her family?
What about pupusas?
Mmmm, pupusas.
Um…
Not sure how that's anybody else's business, but I don't have to right now, thank you.
Would you like some Freedom Fries with that chimichanga?
Papas fritas de libertad.
You haven't lived until you've tasted a dry-roasted vinnegaroon
Is that before or after the forced sonogram?
also, how dare this guy use the "tu" form?!
outrage!
Those who disseminate insulting jokes will have insulting jokes disseminated about them, hence MAD: Mutually Assured Dissemination.
Sounds Virginian
Its the subtle racism of low expectations, to offer a chimichanga to a messican. Conservatives know that the messicans can eat amurrican food, like Pizza and croques monsieur.
So, in other words, once again, just like Romney did, the Repubs take a line out of context, originally in response to their own hateful words, and pretend it is Obama speaking. Didn't Dana Millbank himself do this once? Pathetic.
You peeked at their playbook, didn't you?
Racism is all the Republicans have to offer.
<fixed>
so, if saying, "The RNC has nothing to offer the Latino community but chimichangas" is racist against Latinos, is it also racist for Dems to say "The RNC has nothing to offer White Protestants but baloney sandwiches on Wonder Bread with mayonnaise?" Is it less racist if you substitute the sandwiches with a tuna hot dish?
I AM OUTRAGED!!1?11!1! How dare you?!! I'll have you know that some of us do eat our baloney on white bread with French's yellow mustard. And with cheese!
Don't forget the Ambrosia for desert!
Jello mold with canned fruit cocktail, cottage cheese, and mini-marshmallows mixed in.
Jello. Has to be jello!
Tuna is so versatile, it can also be used in tacos. Or chimichangas.
That's Velveeta on Wonder Bread with Miracle Whip and a diet Dr. Pepper.
[actual co-worker's lunch, which I think may have been the single whitest thing in all of history]
I'm truly outraged over their false outrage over Milbank's sarcastic outrage. And I will not be distracted from that outrage.
Mmm… chimichangas…
I'm outraged over their outrage, your outrage, everybody's outrage in this thread, and the fact that the Taco Bell near me is really stingy with the guacamole.
So, the Republican are NOT offering chimis to Hispanics? Maybe if the Hispaniolians agree to vaginal probes and sonograms, something could be worked out. Make the deal, people.
Are you suggesting using a chimichanga for the procedure!? Because if so, you may have just made getting an abortion in SC delicious.
Watch out for those jalapenos!
I am old and white and I never heard of a "chimichanga" before reading this, but I can recognize a euphemism for something really foul when I see it. Is it some foul use of Santorum or a reference to deformed, diseased genitalia?
Yes.
Lemme see….the Republicans are all about border fences and shooting undocumented workers on sight and forcing everyone to carry papers proving residency, targeting Latinos, but the RNC Latinos get upset about a Democrat mentioning a sandwich.
This is kind of like the Log Cabins taking umbrage because a Democrat talked about ruby-red slippers.
Chili con carne was invented in San Antone.
Chop suey was first cooked in San Francisco's Chinatown.
So?
I mean, this is a great country. Right?
An awful lot of what passes for Chinese food in this country was invented right here. Because no self-respecting Chinese person would dream of eating most of this shit. I can't tell you how happy I am to be in HongKong or Singapore eating the Chinese food THERE. It's WORLDS, nay, GALAXIES above this godawful shit.
It can be tough to find those twice-fried raindeer balls here in the States.
Geezus, dood, WTF are you doing, eating twice-fried reindeer balls? Haven't those poor creatures suffered ENOUGH?
I don't know where pizza was invented, but according to Bill Bryson's book "Made in America" (one of my favorite books, btw), it was introduced to Americans in 1905 at Lombardi's on Spring Street in NYC.
Dese fuckin' Repuglicans, all they have left to throw against the wall is Santorum, because all the other shit they've thrown just doesn't stick. Need to include more Messican in their diet to get the sticky brown stuff.
Yeah! And, and, Obama hates kittens, too! And, and puppies! And I saw him whip a unicorn with a rainbow! He smiles a lot, too which, you know is the way Muslins say they hate you and your freedoms. It's disgraceful the way he won't just quit and admit that he's a terrorist. And he hates kittens.
Also, he bit that guy's finger off, probly, huh?
O/T But while we are on the topic of food: http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/man-suffers-…
Delicious!
That's what you get for eating shit disguised as food.
Really, "Nurse" Bridgett, fuck you. Of course they were taking pictures because your entire restaurant is a publicity stunt. Remember when your mascot died?
Her last name is Korn? Latinos call it maize. Oh the self-loathing…
Ms. Sevilla Korn, not to insult your intelligence or anee-ting, but not all Hispanics support a party which tries to scapegoat the fuck out of us, you fucking sell out.
Call me when this non-controversy hits Noticiero Univision, also.
Wow, it seems like EVERY fucking Republicunt alive has already forgotten about New Haven, CT Mayor Joseph Maturo and his comment about showing sensitivity to the Latino community by eating more tacos. Dayum.
I think Chimichanga means "fried taco" in Mexican…
What, no chips and salsa?
Herman Cain would have chimed in except he can't pronounce Chimi- chimi-ubeki-chimi-changa.
I say, "FOOOOOOOOOD FIGHT !!!"
Let's look at the context of this-the Repubs in the Senate, led by Rand (there's something about an Aqua-Buddha man) Paul, are blocking the appointment of a Cuban refugee to the Federal bench. Unbe-frackin'-lievable. They're ticking off the *one* group of Latinos that is composed pretty much of yellow-dog Republicans. It's as if they're giving up on anybody who isn't a white redneck.
A good friend of mine, who is a perfectly lovely woman, has struggled all her life with her weight, and on top of that, has had to deal with critical, judgmental family members. One of those family members asked the overweight person, in my hearing, her opinion of a particular outfit they were wearing. She blurted out, "It makes you look fat", to the surprise of everyone, including herself.
In a similar way, the Republicans are about three-quarters of the way to crazy every minute of the day, because they want to call the President a "nigger", but can't. It's an obsession with them, the way repressed thoughts tend to become obsessive, and forces its way up to the surface in strange and unexpected ways, as repressed thoughts will. Combine that with the projection they bring to every situation, and one of those ways is to label everything the President does as "racist".
Now, this really IS a puzzler:
Jim Messina (and I have to wonder if he ever misses Kenny Loggins) basically said that Republicans have nothing left to offer Latinos. The Republicans, to the great surprise of no one, got all worked up over this being "an insult to the Hispanic community", like that's someone they give a shit about.
Now, the puzzler is, are they:
a) so dumb that they actually believe that saying Republicans have nothing to offer Latinos is actually an insult to Hispanics, rather than an accurate critique of their racist and intellectually bankrupt agenda,
b) so dishonest that they think anybody will be fooled by this?
Also, can we look at their tweets under the same microscope, and have the same kind of Chicken Little-esque panic when one of *them* says anything whatsoever about Latinos/Hispanics/blacks/gays/whoever?
well now i'm just hungry.
Has anyone said "Chimichangate" yet? AM I THE FIRST?
Chivalry? Or calling every conservative woman a cunt? I'm pretty sure that the “cunt” thing was around during Jim's original tenure.
Oh I meant chivalrous as in trying to squelch the "cunt" meme. Not sure when that started. And not sure how I feel about it – the crudity level here is pretty high, you know?
Oh where was that?

Look for Chillwillard's post
Inside.
WHAT??? A man let you walk out of the house with CLEAVAGE showing? Does Ms. Clouthier know this?
I *must* be.
My God. She must be a liberal!
Clouthier? No fucking way.
MissTaken? Yeah, she's been thoroughly corrupted, poor girl. No saving her, I'm afraid.
That's OK – she just needs a man to take her in hand and give her moral guidance. Just like how Rick was able to guide Mrs. Santorum away from that awful abortionist lech she was shacked up with.
I b'leev MissTaken has, so to speak, been taken in hand and given moral guidance. Unfortunately, the gentleman doing the honours is some redheaded scalawag of the dreaded LIBERAL persuasion, who's *encouraging* her in her scandalous behaviour. If we're lucky, we'll get video.
Video? Ooh – can't wait to see that!
Someone's wiring up her apt. as soon as she leaves for work. Nyahhahaha.
