New Dem Site Seeks GOP Macaca Moments June 29, 2010 - 11:50 AM | by: Kimberly Schwandt
In a strong sign that YouTube videos and camera phones will be ever-important in this years election, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) is launching a new program called The Accountability Project encouraging anyone to upload videos catching and documenting Republican candidates at public events.
They are hoping to then point-out any misinformation, lies and double-speak they see from candidates try to make misleading attacks and false claims under the radar, the DNC said in a release announcing the project.
The DNC move is a sure sign that macaca moments are now a regular part of the political landscape. The term macaca moment quickly became part of the political lexicon in 2006 when Republican Senatorial candidate George Allen used the term macaca in reference to an India-American aide to his opponent taping an event. He later apologized for using the derogatory term saying he didnt know what it meant. Allen ended up losing his re-election to Democratic challenger, Jim Webb.
The DNC pointed to that very instance in their announcement, saying, It was just one moment. Who knows what else is being said when the cameras aren't running?

Kind of like the famous “Report your neighbor to the White House” project
but, as usual, with a different NewSpeak name ...
We need to catch someone republican saying welfare isn’t for minorities and defectives but for good Americans. Yea, that would be sweet.
Let’s send them some of the Democrat macaca moments.

So we buy a domain name that is similar and post all the Dem gaffes on it...if only I were an HTML master...
This only highlights the desperation in the Democrat camp. They hope to do to GOP candidates what they did to George Allen. All candidates make gaffes -what makes it a liability is the willingness of the media to play it up 24/7. And, for now, the Dems still have that. The media are still their Useful Idiots.
This entire Congress and administration is one gigantic Macacca Moment.
Mike Allen reporting this on Morning Joe almost had a CLIMAX!! Hge was SO excitied, it was EMBARRASSING!!
Typical brownshirt tactics.
The Fourth Estate is the Fifth Column!!
AWESOME!!
The media colluded with the Democrats for the past umpteen election cycles.
Mark Halperin and others are as corrupt as f***. They know it. They defend it. They want their side to win.
Zero: "I campaigned in all 57 states, but may have missed one or two".
Is Joe Biden in charge?
80)
Actually they are sending out thier minions to CREATE the macaca moments to get them on camera!!
MACACA!
MACACA!
They have to do this.
They have play racism, call names, etc.
On the actual issues they are getting destroyed.
I’ll bet anything some sexual scandal - even against a democrat - etc comes out because they have to distract people from the serious things. Remember Monica when Clinton should have been charged for treason over China, not sex.

You mean like if you have a healthcare plan or a doctor you like you can keep them and pay less?
