Anguished and Lashing Out

If you read the comments at the Asheville Citizen-Times, you’re already aware that Barack Obama is an Islamic apostate who may be a mooslim, that he’s BFF with terrorists from Hamas to Weather Underground, and that he Hates white people. As a regular participant in the lowly AC-T forums, I’ve come to expect the worst sorts of smear tactics from zealous, frothy-mouthed shut-ins.

This sort of poison is rippling across the internet and talk radio, lapping at the harried shores of truck stops, diners, and dive bars. It’s infecting the subtext of this Presidential contest with racism, xenophobia, and Christian Nationalism.

The people responsible for propagating lies and smears like these aren’t big John McCain supporters either - they’re Republicans staggering about, eyes-wide, incredulous and angry that their movement conservatism failed so mightily under the hand of Bush and Cheney. They liked the “with us or against us” rhetoric. They applauded when Freedom Fries went onto the menu on Capitol Hill. Saddam’s spider hole was a visceral thrill, and hating the Dixie Chicks was an exercise in loyalty and conviction. After years of being at the bottom of the political heap, it was their time to shine.

Now only 20-odd percent of Americans believe George W. is a good President. Over half of those who voted for Bush in 2000 and 2004 are now faced with a terrible reality - They were wrong. Now they’re going to lash out at the presumed Democratic nominee with a cynical, nihilistic fervor. It’s not as though they admire or even like John McCain. He’s the mockery of their last hope that a ‘real’ conservative would step up and prove that they hadn’t married their identities to a failed set of ideas. They are distraught, even grossly impaired. In their anguish they build a mythology steeped in the sense that the world is so out of control that even their most hyperbolic exhortations might just be true.

So. For your reading pleasure, here are a few comments pulled higgledy-piggledy from the darkest corners of the AC-T’s political caverns:

He is a elitist liberal thief who stole his house threw his pastor and white grandmother under the bus when it was convenient and along with his wife hates America and Americans.

his history of associating with Anti-American radicals and marxists is clearly evident and should scare all persons who love America, freedom, and liberty.

By electing the Great Appeaser, we’ve got a chance to march toward WWIII. Obama’s mantra seems to be hurt your friends,(Israel), and trust your enemies.

He was raised “white”! He just gets more mileage out of being “black” and has used that to his advantage to get where he is.

I don’t look forward to this country having a black ruler with Muslim ties. I have seen what happened in Sierra Leone, Uganda and other African countries with black rulers, with the body counts in the millions.

he the ANTICRIST

Barak Oprahamama: Poster Child for Afirmative Action run amouck. He need help to get into Harvard. He needed help to graduate. He thinks there are 57 states in the Union. He thinks Memorial Day is for those who fought and died for our country and he thinks there was a bunch of them at his rally in Las Cruces, NM! What a freakin’ MORON! Worse than that, he thinks WE ARE dumb enough to make him PRESIDENT. We know Blacks are that dumb, just hope & pray Whites aren’t.

If old Hussein should become president,(god forbid) the US will probably go the way of E.Saint Louis if one is smart enough to get my drift.

It was by his own admission that he distanced himself from whites and actively sought out black approval. He worked to seperate from his white heritage. Does this really sound like a uniter to you.

Omaba is a shameless race-monger, a madrassa-taught muslim, a demagogue who rants endlessly about the evils of private enterprise earning profits for their shareholders, a coward who is in the pockets of the vicious mass-murdering islamists’ unlaundered robes.

There’s a taste. You’ll have to wade in for yourself if you want to read more.
