Who Hates the USA? Racist Republicans, That's Who

Isn't it wonderful to see the Republican Party's true views on issues of race and ethnicity being spread on CD, just in time for the holidays? With the distribution of a "parody" CD containing songs titled "Barack the Magic Negro" and "The Star Spanglish Banner" RNC Chair candidate Tennessee Republican John "Chip" Saltsman cheerfully tells the world that racism is not only funny, but demonstrates unapologetically that it is one of the core values supporting the Republican Party. The CD, ironically is entitled "We Hate the USA." Of course, the songs included clearly define the "We" to which the title refers: white Republicans who think that they can dismiss their obvious racism and religious extremism by calling it "political parody."

Chip's CD should come as no surprise. Chip was Mike Huckabee's campaign manager this past election, after first supporting Bill Frist. Frist, a physician, interfered publicly in Terry Schaivo's case. Against her husband Mike's wishes, Frist led attempts to prevent Mike from helping his wife Terry die with whatever dignity she had left after the freak show led by Frist.

Vulgar fantasy-based pandering apparently being to his liking, Saltsman later threw his support behind Huckabee (for a reported $15,000 per mo.). The jovial Huckabee wants to turn the US into a right-wing theocracy, in which the Bill of Rights is gutted by the christian falange's extremism and where the fantasy-based word of g#d, supplants the words of the founders.

Hey Chip--news flash--when the WSJ knows you've crossed the line, you should know you're busted. You've got to repent by lying like Bill Clinton and saying "sorry." Otherwise, take a lesson from Republican delegate Randy Gray, II from Midland, MI, who paraded on the streets in full KKK regalia while armed with a hand gun. Better hide that satin hood a little while longer Chip or you'll be a victim, punished for your beliefs just like him.

Or, you could be really honest and admit this isn't "political parody" we're dealing with here. It's your venal attempt to reactivate the "base", after getting hammered in November, by coming out of the closet in your KKK drag to remind the flock that g#d wants them to hate hard and hate long and keep those checks coming in to preserve the white-male-christian way of life.

Carl says, "DON'T BE DUMB. IT CAN AND WILL HAPPEN HERE IF WE LET IT. LET'S FEDERALIZE THE SOUTH AND TRY RECONSTRUCTION AGAIN, UNTIL WE GET 'ER DONE RIGHT."

UPDATE:
Politico reports that Mike Duncan, RNC chair, has issued a statement repudiating Saltsman's efforts at "parody":
Duncan's statement, in full: "The 2008 election was a wake-up call for Republicans to reach out and bring more people into our party. I am shocked and appalled that anyone would think this is appropriate as it clearly does not move us in the right direction."

I once saw a movie where one of the actors (in referring to one of the other characters who was a buffoon) said, "A perfect example of an inferiority complex manifesting itself in a superiority complex."
BINGO. I immediately thought of some of the republicans I know. This racist CD is like the above in that ironically it is showcasing the ugliest GOP core "values." Rather than trying to staunch racism, (some) republicans are PROMOTING RACISM as is shown here. This proves (some) republicans are mean-spirited dividers, NOT uniters!
