BREAKING! Proof of Obama's Terrorist Links!!!!

BREAKING NEWS: 
I am sorry to have to be the one to break this news to all of you out there who believed in Barack Obama... The Obama campaign is all but finished, as new incontrovertible evidence has emerged linking him to domestic terrorist, Bill Ayers. The campaign has for weeks been trying to dodge and suppress the inevitable, at least until election day. But late yesterday afternoon, this explosive new "smoking gun" was delivered to the offices of Freedom Road and it has the Obama campaign reeling...

It appears true, after all, that a youthful Barry Obama, code name "The Hawaiian Lion," did, indeed, participate in the Weathermen's infamous 1969 "Days of Rage" campaign in Chicago:

Well, there you have it. Incontrovertible proof that Obama is a violent, communist-socialist, Muslim-Christian-liberation-theologist, elitist, drug-addled, tax & spend, America-hater! I mean, just look at him there. That is obviously the face of a hate-filled terror-monger bent on destroying the American Dream... And, if he did it once, he'll do it again, only this time from the White House!!! 

There's more...  accompanying the photographic proof that was delivered to our offices was an audio recording of Obama, JUST LAST WEEK, as he got ready to speak to a group of "community organizers," singing James Brown's subversive classic, "Funky President," and Parliament's incendiary, "Chocolate City," which features the militant black nationalist lyric, "They still call it the White House, but that's a temprorary condition" and the radical mantra, "Gainin' on ya!"...

We shoulda known all along it would come to this!

Stuff White People Like

This is a really funny website. According to the makers, "This is a scientific approach to highlight and explain stuff white people like. They are pretty predictable."

So, what are some of the things white people like?

• sushi
• farmer's markets
• dogs
• children's games as adults
• dinner parties
• Toyota Prius
• 80s night
• religions their parents don't belong to
• Microbreweries
• non-profit organizations
• self-aware hip-hop references
• being an expert on YOUR culture
• having two last names
• wine
• coffee
• writers workshops

For the full list and explanations, check out the website!

What would you add to the list? What other stuff do white people like?

Oh, and for all the defensive white folks out there, have a sense of humor, already. Sheesh.

Pass it along...

(Thanks to Winston Scarlett, who checks in on Freedom Road from Middletown, New York, for reminding me recently of this website. Check out Winston's blog, This Modern Love.)

Robert Downey, Jr., Blackens Up for "Tropic Thunder"

The new Ben Stiller film, "Tropic Thunder," has attracted controversy for a few reasons, including Robert Downey, Jr.'s character's decision to "blacken up." Is it simply ironic humor or is it offensive?

In response, a Slate reporter posed the question this way: Is it ever acceptable for a white actor to put on blackface for a role?

See how he answered in this 6 minute video report:



What do you think? Is it ever acceptable for a white actor to wear blackface, even if done ironically?

Is the Clinton Campaign Colorblind?



In the wake of more racialized comments by a Clinton surrogate, this time Geraldine Ferraro, the debate over whether the Clinton campaign is deliberately playing the race card has resurfaced.

The above video offers a very funny satirical video on the subject. Check it out. Pass it around...

UPDATE: Ferraro has put her foot further into her mouth, stating, "I really think they're attacking me because I'm white." Sheesh. Embarrassing.

Christmas Greeting from the Republican Debate


Well, this one probably isn't going to go over well with everybody, but I think the point is a significant one. The hawkish zeal of most Christian conservatives is very troubling. The lack of a moral voice on the war is also cause for great concern. Ron Paul is the only guy on that side with any integrity on this issue... and he is otherwise a lunatic.

So, to my friends on the Right, have fun choosing a nominee among this screwy bunch!
