“Hope n’ Change”
Stilton Jarlsberg is doing his part to fight the Socialist Islamo-commie menace that is President Obama. Clearly, the best way to do this is to translate talking points into a slapdash clip-art comic strip that, if you squint just right and/or suffer significant brain damage, approximates humor. The second-best method? Racism. Don’t believe me?
I’ve got ten bucks that say it never even occurred to Jarlsberg how racist this shit is. Anybody in?

Off-topic at Yahoo Finance
Walter Bagdasarian lives in San Diego. One night last October he was a bit drunk and found himself in front of a computer. He opened a web browser and found his way to a Yahoo Finance message board and, well –
(XETV-TV) SAN DIEGO – A La Mesa man who posted racially charged comments on Yahoo about killing Barack Obama during the presidential campaign was convicted Tuesday of making threats against a major candidate for president.
Walter Bagdasarian — who was indicted in January — faces up to 10 years in federal prison when he is sentenced Oct. 26 by U.S. District Judge Marilyn Huff.
If Bagdasarian had stuck with racist jokes and just generally being a shitty person he’d still be free, but after a lifetime of bigoted dickery the thrill fades. It always takes just a little more to get that same emotional fix and, eventually, you’re drunk in the middle of the night at a Yahoo message board typing shit like this.
Bagdasarian used the computer to post threatening messages on a Yahoo Finance message board, including one that read, “He will have a 50 cal in the head soon,” and 20 minutes later posted a message that read “Shoot the n—— -,” said Assistant U.S. Attorney William Cole.The defendant also sent e-mail messages containing a link to a YouTube video depicting a junk vehicle exploding after being hit by a round from a firearm, the prosecutor said.
Oh, and he had an arsenal. Did I mention that?
During a search of the defendant’s home, agents found six weapons, including a .50-caliber rifle, Cole said.
There is literally no sane reason for him to own or have access to a .50 caliber rifle. Far be it from me to suggest that he’s compensating for anything, though.

David McKalip, Come on Down
David McKalip, M.D. is a neurosurgeon in Florida. He’s a member of the American Medical Association’s House of Delegates. David McKalip, M.D. is also a huge goddamn racist.
Amateur racist David McKalip sent an image of Obama as an African witch doctor to a Tea Party listserv. TPMmuckracker got in touch with David McKalip to ask him, essentially, what the fuck.
Asked about the email in a brief phone interview with TPMmuckraker, McKalip said he believes that by depicting the president as an African witch doctor, the artist who created the image “was expressing concerns that the health-care proposals [made by President Obama] would make the quality of medical care worse in our country.” McKalip said he didn’t know who created it.
But pressed on what was funny about an image that plays on racist stereotypes about Africans, McKalip declined to say, instead offering to talk about why he opposes Obama’s health-care proposals.
“I have a busy day,” he said eventually, before ending the call.
That he resorted to crude stereotype shows that not only is David McKalip, M.D. a racist asshole, but he’s a lazy one. Instead of critiquing the plan or policy McKalip just points and shrieks, indignant that a black man had the gall to win an election.
Also, whoever put together the image could have at least balanced the lighting and color on President Obama’s head. Being a racist shitheel isn’t an excuse for shoddy workmanship.

Birther Bill – Now with 9 Racist Co-Sponsors
Today in news of the Oh my god, this is never going to go away, is it? The bill seeking to demand proof of citizenship in campaign laws is now up to 9 sponsors. Do y’all remember when the GOP wanted to amend the constitution to remove the natural born citizen requirement so the Governator could run for president? Wasn’t so long ago.
Absolute best comment from this article?
I am not a bigot nor bitter but I do beleive that he should be required as McCain was to provide proof of his citezenship .The peice of paper he has shown is not a birth certificate it is a cetificate of live birth and for you retards that is not proof of where he was born,read your own birth certificate this thing does not provide a third of the offical information. Also his transcripts show that he was enrolled as a forgein student of British citizenship. thes half breed is not an American He is a muslim educated fake that has more names than John Dillenger
Well… since you say you’re not a bigot, I’ll just have to take your word and ignore all the bigoted claims you’re making. Pro-tip – when trying to argue you’re not a racist, avoid using phrases like “half breed.”
