Race Bait and Dog Whistles

by matttbastard

Shorter Ron Fournier: “The boy’s a bit too uppity for my liking. Doesn’t know his place, if you know what I mean.”

Jesus wept. Talk about walking a thin line.

  1. Prole says :

    Is it just me, or does the final line sound like a threat?

    “Nobody expects Obama to be perfect. But he better never forget that he isn’t.”

    And this, in the 2nd paragraph:

    “Wherever it lies, Barack Obama better watch his step.”

    Maybe it was tongue-in-cheek? It’s almost as if Fournier doesn’t want anyone to take his threatening remarks too seriously.

    I see Prole already typed in two lines that really echoed for me. Jeepers, the dude is up-front with it, isn’t he?

    wtf? MSM racism so effing blatant already? And Obama hasn’t even won yet! I cannot imagine what horrors of so-called journalism will come should he win the nomination! Ugh!

  4. Daisy says :

    Really offensive stuff. Hard to believe it’s even in a “mainstream” outlet–I associate that kind of race-baiting-under-the-wire with people like Dinesh D’Souza.

  5. matttbastard says :

    TBH, I’m surprised there hasn’t been more of it. And I expect to see the gloves really come off (heh) now that Obama’s been outed as a closeted muslim Angry Negro.

    Oh, just wait until we get into the tar-baby fiscal policies.
