Loved his verbal "air quotes" when he scoffed at "volcano monitoring." I'm sure people in Seattle thought it was hilarious. Reminded me of how hard I laughed when someone mentioned "levee montitoring" for those crazy people in New Orleans.

Yes, so right, if only he could read the words of someone else off of a teleprompter the way your Messiah can.

It's so strange that whenever these types of arguments come up that "race" is always brought up by those on the left.  Kind of creepy.

And P.S. I too think BJ sucked ass last night as well.  

BO did a good job, though.  But he's always been a strong reader.



And Krauthamer is smarter than all of us.

"Barack the Magic Negro" (the admittedly dorky Limbaugh song) was making fun of a person on the left who was talking about Obama and coined that phrase.  So, that pretty much makes my point.

And the Backwards B chick was a moron and alot of right-wing bloggers (notably Michelle Malkin) were saying that her story smelled fishy long before it was shown to be BS.

So...try again.

rush limbaugh didn't come up with that song, danny.

reposting a recap I found online because it gave me some chuckes:


Hi! I'm Bobby Jindal. My parents are immigrants, like President Obama. My skin is brown - but not as brown as President Obama.

I'm the governor of Louisiana. And let me tell you - government doesn't work! Here's an example: Katrina. Remember when a Republican president who was pretty incompetent was told by his former Arabian horse breeder turned disaster recovery head of FEMA that "Mr. President, there's a big storm heading to New Orleans" and he did nothing about it - and then Bush went to San Diego and played guitar? Yup - proof right there that government doesn't work!

In fact, it works so badly that the only person that was helping people was a sheriff getting out boats. Yes, a government official performing his duties in an emergency - that proves that government just doesn't work when you elect people of competence!

Now, let's talk about this "stimulus" plan. You may remember that 9 years ago, we had a surplus in the deficit, we were paying down the debt, and we were doing that with a combination of a reasonable tax rate and drawing down spending. Then Republicans got into office, and we cut taxes and spent the money on two wars and on piling up security for places like a Kentucky Fried Chicken center. And look how well the economy did!

Now that we're in bad economic straits, we Republicans have the solution: tax cuts! Because it worked so well over the last 8 years!

Look at Louisiana - while I've been governor, we've cut taxes all over the place - and our growing unemployment (funds for which I just denied, because poor people just need motivation to work), firing schoolteachers (because we don't have enough money to pay them because we cut all of those taxes - kids can education themselves about things like Intelligent Design!), and having to take in the other umpteen billions from the federal government to meet our budget deficits - so my governorship for my state has been awesome!

Of course, we also want to reduce spending. Like on things like volcano monitoring. You may think that because my state was all but destroyed by a natural disaster because people weren't heeding the warning signs, I'd be more interested in monitoring that. Hell, no! See, if you know its coming, that just encourages government to respond badly. Instead, if it's God will to wipe out a bunch of people and towns, it should happen.

Now, I know President Obama just said he wants to cut wasteful spending in the Pentagon, and give troops a pay raise and increase spending on veterans. But I'm going to ignore that, and say that Obama wants to cut our military so we're more likely to be attacked. If I close my eyes real tight, then reality can't see me!

So, remember folks:

   1. I'm just like Obama!
   2. Tax cuts cure everything from having a stimulus, to funding two wars, to fixing our economic woes!
   3. Spending money monitoring possible natural disasters is a waste of money. Tax cuts and prayers are far more effective!
   4. If you didn't know, me and Sarah Palin are going to run for President in 2012 along with Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee. Republicans rock!

That makes no sense, tony.

Why don't you explain it to me?

You know what tony?  There's a little scroll bar on the side of most browsers that you can move up and down.  In a situation like this you can move that little scroller up and see what the original question was.

Perhaps you don't have that little bar, so I'll help you out and try to give you a recap:

1) edgeways mentioned "Barack the Magic Negro" as a way to point out "the Right" using race.

2) I replied by stating that the title of that particular Limbaugh song edgeways mentioned was taken from a phrase that a left-winger coined.

3) You piped in by stating to me that Limbaugh did not come up with that song.

4) I replied that I never said Limbaugh came up with the song, but that it was originally from his show, to the best of my knowledge.  I then said "Enlighten me" hoping that you would understand and be able to explain your earlier statement regarding Limbaugh not coming up with the song.

5) Tez then posted a very funny recap that he read somewhere online which, while pretty good, had nothing to do with Limbaugh or that song(which is no knock on Tez at all).

6) (This is where it gets tricky) You then stated that you were going to respond to me (which I took to mean you were planning on responding to my inquiry about the source of the "Magic Negro" song) but you felt that Tez's comment answered the question for you, even though his post had nothing to do with the song, Limbaugh, you, or me.


Fwew.  So...I ask again...care to enlighten me?

nah. i've got anything else to do.

you may want to try, you know, google for your "enlightenment." instead of wasting my time asking me to explain things to you.

"checkmate?" what the fuck? are you saying you've bested me, somehow?

and, no, danny, talking to you is never fun. you are a person who sits and riles people from behind his computer. you're comic book guy, only instead of spider-man #1, you've got a podcast.

I thought you were done and I was wasting your time?

Oh well.  Anyway, I am honestly sorry for riling you up.  I wasnt trying to.  I really was hoping you could answer the question I had regarding your statement about that song.  You know...since you made the statement and all.  But that's cool.

Danny, you would defend "Barack the Magic Negro" a song written for Limbaugh. Limbaugh (at best) is a race baiter. How many African-Americans do you think listen to the fat druggy? They know that Limbaugh appeals to white racists.

Let me clarify my last comment. Not all of the millions of (nearly all white) people who listen to the Fat Radio Clown are racists, most probably are not, but racists will certainly never hear anything during Limbaugh's show that would upset their world view.

Wait.  I could have sworn that I was the one who said that the song was from his show.

Hold on a sec.  I'm going to use the scroll bar over on the left and check.

*scroll scroll scroll*

Yup.  That was me.  So thanks for agreeing with me subdo...Tony.

While I was doing my scrolling there I noticed something else that I said even early in this brilliant thread, however.  And that was this: "the admittedly dorky Limbaugh song".  I want to clarify that my use of the word "dorky" (which I would be fine with being replaced with the words "crummy" or "shitty")there was meant to describe the song itself.  So I definately was NOT defending the song.  In fact, I think the song was dumb...which I stated long before this debate got ridiculous (and eventually led to your hilarious cyber-spaz-out a few posts back).
