The Quick and the Dumb . . .

Bill Quick puts this post under the tags "race-baiting" and "assholes" which is interesting because he is a race-baiting asshole.

The Gingrich Card . . .

So Newt "food stamp president" Gingrich thinks that Barack Obama is playing the race card (via Memeorandum) with his comments on the Trayvon Martin killing:

“It’s not a question of who that young man looked like. Any young American of any ethnic background should be safe, period. We should all be horrified no matter what the ethnic background," Gingrich said. "Is the President suggesting that if it had been a white who had been shot that would be ok because it didn’t look like him?"

That's a ludicrous interpretation of the President's comment on a case where the victim's race is central:

"My main message is to the parents of Trayvon Martin. You know, if I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon," Obama said. "All of us as Americans are going to take this with the seriousness it deserves."

"Obviously, this is a tragedy. I can only imagine what these parents are going through," Obama said. "All of us have to do some soul searching to figure out how something like this has happened."

The only mystery here is how somebody as repulsive as Newt Gingrich is faltering in the Republican primaries.

The Vetting Continues . . .

As a citizen journalist inspired by Andrew Breitbart, I have uncovered shocking footage of Barack Obama from the 1970s:

Postmortem

Given the lame revelations coming out of the Big sites as a part of the "vetting" process I am forced to conclude that Andrew Breitbart died of embarrassment.

You're Nothing to Me Now . . .

A couple of years ago, Rush Limbaugh failed in his attempt to become a part owner of the Saint Louis Rams. At the time, I wrote that, "I scarcely blame the NFL for not wanting to devote all of their public relations to defending and contextualizing the ravings of one of its part-owners on an almost daily basis. And that is what they would have to do if Limbaugh was involved."

After the most recent Limbaugh freakout, which has resulted in his show bleeding sponsors, I'm sure that the members of the NFL hierarchy are breathing a sigh of relief that they avoided the nightmare of allowing him into their exclusive club; even as Limbaugh's allies go to the mattresses to contain the damage wrought by the man quickly earning a reputation as the Fredo Corleone of the Right.

The Real Victims

Poor victimized rightwingers; "held to a standard of decorum which liberals aren't expected to abide" in Aaron Goldstein's words and it "hasn't been a good week" for them. Poor Dears.
