"To entertain her daughter, Michelle Obama loves to make monkey sounds." Photo caption of Michelle Obama speaking to her daughter Malia posted on The Free Republic.

For those of you who have argued vociferously with me that we are living in a "post-racial America" rather than an America in which Jim Crow is on steroids, you apparently have not read the daily diet of racism that the readers and bloggers on this site consume and then regurgitate. The photo caption above was posted with a blog in which comments included:
"Could you imagine what world leaders must be thinking seeing this kind of street trash and that we paid for this kind of street ghetto trash to go over there?"
"They make me sick .... The whole family... mammy, pappy, the free loadin' mammy-in-law, the misguided chillin', and especially 'lil cuz... This is not the America I want representin' my peeps.
First, it is easy to dismiss these comments as isolated incidents posted on a right-wing vestige. To do so of course would completely miss the point. Moreover, these comments show the continuing significance of race in a country that has become so enamored with the election of its first Black President. In fact, far too many of us are content only with the symbolism and dismiss the substance. I have heard many say that he can't tackle race in his first term but that he will do it in his second.

"According to site owner, Jim Thompson, "We should steer clear of Obama's children. They can't help it if their old man is an American-hating Marxist pig."
"Racial thinking will not be cured by a single event no matter how powerful that event. Websites like The Free Republic provide a gathering place for Whites who are convinced that the election of a Black President means the end of White power and the introduction of Negro rule. For those of you who wish to quibble with me about whether President Obama is Black or multi-racial; I say that the readers of The Free Republic are not confused. Their arguments are not based in multiculturalism, they are based in naked racial stereotypes that have been and continue to be assigned to Blacks."
This Jim Thompson feller sure gets around. What do these guys do besides plagiarize and regurgitate the same old tired circular b/s. They might try a little independent investigation before getting all high and mighty and blowing crap out of their pie holes.
FR is the KKK? This freaking idiot PHD piles it higher than B/S can be stacked!
Effen socialist libtard! What kind of man is produced in our universities today? This is not the America I remember. But I'm sure this racist fool is happy about that. Marxism destroys all in its path. If only they knew. These useful idiots will be first in the ovens.
Freedom is never more than one generation from being extinct.
May your chains set lightly upon you.
So what bullsh!t liberal arts degree does the good doctor have?
Bump!
Street ghetto trash....is that something like Alaska trailer trash?
Why is this being posted here?
Way over the line.
yitbos
Mr. Thompson is famous and Jim merely wanted to point it out.
Looks like the MSM fax machine has been busy.
The end game is to shut down all criticism of Obama.
The left doesn’t believe in the 1st or 2nd amendment.
At least, not for others.
The same media that defended Letterman is now attacking FR for a few comments posted by who knows who.
For all we know, the posts were made by the KOS Kids.
Of course, the MSM is more than happy to label all Freeper’s as racists.
The left loves the race card.
Why is that way over the line? They want to get personal, then we get personal right back.
Funny how we have gone from “the website of Alan Keyes diehards” to the “replacement for the KKK”.
I would have thought those 2 things would conflict somehow...LOL
Umm, no...
Meanwhile, the left is writing attack articles about Palin.
This by a Black writer before the election:

Of course, this type of attack is fine because it’s against a white female republican.
I forgot about what a bunch of Keyes whackos they used to call us. The hunt is on. It ain’t about logic. “Freeze the target...etc...”
Not exactly.
The fact is that Obama shares very little with the average American black person. Obama is more Arab than he is black and more white than Arab. Most posters here know that.
In the real world, people both black and white make off the cuff comments. It doesn't make them racist. He knows that but he'd rather help disseminate the erroneous meme that whites fear the black man, miss the good old days of the Klan and congregate on the net. He now needs to visit daily Kos and the Huffington Post and comment on the remarks made about Sarah Palin, Condi Rice and Clarence Thomas.
“The reality is that Bull Conner, the Grand Wizards and members of the KKK and the Aryan Nation have been replaced by the writers, editors and owners of The Free Republic.....”
Mr Metzler, The only “Grand Wizard” I know is a Democrat Senator.
Alright, who spilled the beans?
Speaking of Byrd, the MSM also scrambled to cover for Byrd when he dropped an “N” bomb on national TV
Different rules for Dems.
BTW Jim - did Regie and Al reconfirm for the Advanced Demagogery course next Tuesday?
