Not racist "dog whistle": Washington (Macaca) Post with headlines like:
On the matter of those racist dog whistles all these middle-age white liberals keep hearing, the Wall Street Journal’s James Taranto put it very well: “The thing we adore about these dog-whistle kerfuffles is that the people who react to the whistle always assume it’s intended for somebody else,” he wrote. “The whole point of the metaphor is that if you can hear the whistle, you’re the dog.” And a very rare breed at that. What frequency does a Mitch McConnell speech have to be ringing inside your head for even the most racially obsessed Caucasian NBC anchorman to hear the words “PGA tour” as “deep-rooted white insecurities about black male sexuality”? That’s way beyond dog-whistling, and somewhere between barking mad and frothing rabid.
Steyn ping! (Or are those racist codewords?)
Classic Steyn!
“That’s way beyond dog-whistling, and somewhere between barking mad and frothing rabid.”
Perfectly describes the LSM over the last few days.
Freaks
-——”Chicago” as a racist code word.-——
I may be guilty of treasonous posting but he got it wrong. The correct code is “Chicago Amish”
Amazing how it’s always the liberals who are able to hear and interpret the so-called “racist dog whistles”.
“Golf” = Black
OK, and
“Country Club” = White Republicans..
Aren’t “Country Clubs” where people play “GOLF”?
1992 Democrats: “It's the economy, stupid.”
2012 Democrats: “It's the stupidity, economists.”
BTTT
In the last two years my wife and I have attended concerts by Paul Simon, Elton John, Rod Stewart & Stevie Nicks, Neil Diamond, and Lord of The Dance. I’d say you could count the black people attending those concerts on the fingers of both hands. There’s only one conclusion: all the artists listed above are filthy racists.
Ay, there's the rub.
Here's a list of things Obama and his handlers don't want you to talk about. The economy is a big one, granted, but let's not forget all the myriad slings and arrows with which they have seen fit to play the tyrant.
O'Donnell brilliantly perceived that subliminally associating Obama with golf is racist, because the word "golf" is subliminally associated with "Tiger Woods," and the word "Tiger" is not-so-subliminally associated with cocktail waitress Jamie Grubbs, nightclub hostess Rachel Uchitel, lingerie model Jamie Jungers, former porn star Holly Sampson, etc, etc. So by using the word "golf" you're sending a racist dog whistle that Obama is a sex addict who reverses over fire hydrants.
To me, the word "Clint" is racist dog-whistling for "Play 'Misty' For Me," which is racist dog-whistling for "Erroll Garner," which is racist dog-whistling for "black pianist way better than Liberace." Clint took "The Bridges Of The Frighteningly White Madison County" and gave it a cool Johnny Hartman soundtrack. Clint introduced the world to Roberta Flack's killer song "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face."
"It's the stupidity, economists."
Only Steyn could come up with that line.
The Eiger....upscale and frighteningly white.
Sadly I have to disagree. Unless there is a sea change in the culture we have a lifetime of this ahead of us.
Hey, I like NASCAR. Am I a,ahem, RACEist too?(ta da bum!)
And another thing, the game of pool is racist. Why must the WHITE ball be hit into the BLACK ball? I call on the gov’t to close down the pool halls and ban the manufacture and import of pool tables.
