  • THE FREE MARKET, IT WORKS!: All of you gossip hounds probably know this already, but the website for popular celebrity magazine Us Weekly is actually “UsMagazine.com,” whereas “UsWeekly.com” is, well, an anti-Obama smear site. Oh it’s talking about liberation theology… oh my. [The Frisky]

How The Obama Smear Email People Respond When Confronted With Elite Facts

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

Wonkette email operative “Bob,” like many Americans, has received an email claiming that Obama is a Muslim, a.k.a. Not American. These patriotic emails are the only way to stop the Obama Conspiracy that threatens to Blackify our government. But Bob, most likely a Liberal, was not so sure he wanted to accept the email as truth, so he replied to the sender that Obama is not a Muslim, and if he were a Muslim that would be acceptable. For this, Bob received the reply, “whatever, he’s not american, white or black……” Despite the authoritative double ellipsis, “Arugula Bob” still couldn’t understand. And that prompted a longer response from the Smearer to Bob, which we have copy-pasted below the jump. MORE »


The Hilarious, Racist South Dakota Ad Of Legend

Monday, June 23rd, 2008

Here’s an independent ad that was running in South Dakota before its June 3 primary from some Christian group, against Barack Obama. The Obama team complained about it shortly after its debut, and Obama has been referencing it recently as a typical attack ad he’ll see more of this fall. But he doesn’t mention how funny it is! The basic idea here: Obama is like a slave in the Underground Railroad, and when he escapes to the North, he and his crazy black church preacher institute a Muslim theocracy. Well *sorry*, Mr. Sensitive Luo Tribesman, we thought the people of South Dakota would’ve wanted to know this information before voting. STOLEN ELECTION. [YouTube]


Can Barack Obama Convince A Single White Person To Like Him?

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

OMG Obama’s first general election ad. In case the reality of this election hasn’t fully sunk in for you yet, this ad should do it: every second of the next 4.5 months will be Barack Obama trying to convince old white Democratic-leaning voters in western Pennsylvania that he doesn’t want to blow up their houses in the name of Allah and/or O.J. Simpson. This election will literally be about that and nothing else. [YouTube]


National Press Club Gives Slot To Larry Sinclair??

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

Well. The National Press Club, Washington’s very Esteemed Lunch Club for reporters, has allowed Larry Sinclair to book 2.5 hours worth of prime real estate on June 18. Larry Sinclair is the guy who claimed he had hot gay blowjobs and did coke with Barack Obama in a hilariously fabricated YouTube video, and hasn’t given up his efforts, despite failing a lie detector test. Normally we think petitions are boring, but, well, sign this fucking petition. [Firedoglake]


Barack Obama Spreads Propaganda About Self!

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

“Mr. Sensitive” over here, Barack Obama, has launched a creepy new website to tackle the various Smears about him that have reached unforeseen levels of ubiquity among AOL e-mail accounts. It features a number of neon blue bald eagles flying around for The Truth. It also calls GOP operative Roger Stone a “sleazemeister,” which is a pretty funny made-up word. And that’s why he’s a Muslim. [Fight the Smears]


Horribly Racist Flyer That No One Can Read Circulating Republican ‘Circles’!

Friday, April 4th, 2008

This rapidly circulating flyer was seen ON THE DESK OF Bill Sandifer, a Republican South Carolina state representative. Can you see how horribly non-racially transcendent it is already? MORE »


Rove Dissuades GOP From Rovian Politics

Wednesday, February 27th, 2008

Between Bill Cunningham and the Tennessee Republican party, there sure have been a lot of Rovian Attacks(TM) on Barack Obama’s middle name, “Hussein,” in the last day or so. It’s signaled new vistas for the Internet, as “Hussein” has already been institutionalized as a verb — like “Swift Boat,” which was also a hilarious verb. But not every Republican operative thinks this Rovian Attack is the best way to go at Obama. A promising, young strategist named Karl Rove, of Texas, thinks that Rovian Politics might do more harm to the GOP than Barack Obama in the general election. Can this upstart Karl Rove rid the party of Rovian Politics? MORE »
