Hey, I got an idea for a post.
“Obama nightmare.” Yeah, that’s the ticket.
Excuse me. You can’t say that.
Who are you?
We’re the Barack Obama Truth Squad. And you can’t refer to a nightmare when talking about Barack Obama.
Why not? An Obama presidency would be a nightmare.
That has nothing to do with anything. Using the phrase “nightmare” is racist.
What?
Racist, you stupid cracker. “Nightmare” is a code word for “Black.” And that makes you a racist.
What are you? Nuts?
“Nuts?!?!” That’s racist, too.
How is “nuts” racist?
You know. Nuts. Brazil nuts is what you really mean. And you know what racist crackers call Brazil nuts.
Now just hold on a second. That’s crazy.
You calling Barack Obama crazy? That’s racist.
How is calling Barack Obama “crazy” racist?
Simple, you ignorant redneck. “Crazy” refers to a singer from Trinidad and Tobago. So you’re calling Obama “Black.” And that’s racist.
So I can’t call Barack Obama a nightmare, nuts, or crazy?
That’s right. That’d be racist.
What about “socialist?”
Racist! You know “socialist” is code word for Black.
But he is a socialist!
You calling Obama a socialist? You racist!
How about “communist?”
J. Edgar Hoover once accused Dr. Martin Luther King of being a communist. I saw that on “X Files.” So communist is a code word for “Black.” You racist.
What can I call him? How about a liberal?
“Liberal?” You racist! Everybody knows that “liberal” is code word for “Black!”
Well, then, what can I say about Barack Hussein Obama?
“Hussein?” You can’t say that!
It’s his name.
So what? Calling him by his name is racist!
How is “Hussein” racist?
Everybody knows that “Hussein” is a code word for “Black,” you racist!
Can I mention his connection to terrorists like Bill Ayers?
What?! Tying Obama to Ayers is racist!
How’s that? Ayers is White!
Ah, but when you see Obama next to Ayers, it shows how Black Obama is. And that’s racist!
Well, what can I call Obama?
You can call him “Senator.”
I can say “Senator Barack Obama?”
You can’t say that. That’s racist!
Okay, I give up. How is calling Barack Obama a “Senator” racist?
“Senator” is code word for “Black!”
How’s that?
You ignorant cracker. “Senator” refers to a blowhard politician. And one of the most famous was Huey Long from Louisiana. And his nickname was “Kingfish.” And everyone knows that “Kingfish” was also the name of a character on “Amos ‘n Andy.” So, yeah, “Senator” is code word for “Black.”
What?! I can’t call Barack Obama “Senator?”
Oh, I expect you will. You racist.
What can I say, then? That he’s “The One?”
Racist!! We know you really mean “That One.” And that’s racist!
Geez! What can I say about Barack Obama, then? That he’s a Democrat?
“Democrat?” You racist! You can’t say that! “Democrat” is code word for “Black!”
Okay, this is just plain silly.
You think racism is silly?
No, but this whole thing is silly. Anything said about Obama is criticized as “racist.” All you’re really trying to do is stifle opposing views.
There are no opposing views. There’s Barack Obama on one side, and racists on the other.
Because I’m supporting McCain? I’m racist for supporting McCain?
That’s right! Anyone who opposes Barack Obama is a racist.
I’m not opposing Obama because of his race. I’m supporting McCain because he’s the most qualified candidate. I’ve not seen a Democrat nominee for President worth supporting since … heck, I don’t remember when. I supported Goldwater in ’64, even though I wasn’t old enough to vote. I was for Nixon in ’68 and ’72, despite not being old enough to vote. I thought Ford should have won in ’76. I voted for Reagan in ’80 and ’84. For Bush in ’88 and ’92. Dole in ’96. Bush in 2000 and again 4 years ago. And McCain this year.
So, you’ve been a racist your whole life, then?
Now that’s stupid.
Oh, I see. “Stupid.” That’s what you rednecks say about Blacks. Shiftless. Lazy. Stupid. All code words for “Black.”
I didn’t say …
Go ahead. Try to deny it.
I do deny it. I’m not against Obama because he’s Black.
You can’t say “Black!” That’s a racist term. Say “African-American.”
Well, that actually does make sense. Obama’s father was from Kenya, a country in Africa. His mother was from Kansas. So, yeah, he actually is an African-American.
Oh, but when you say it like that, you’re racist! “African-American” is code word for “Black.”
This is ridiculous! I’m not against Obama because he’s black.
Any time you oppose a Black man, you’re racist!
Oh, really? So, if I opposed Clarence Thomas, I’d be racist? If I opposed Michael Steele, I’d be racist? If I criticized Condoleezza Rice, I’d be racist? If I said something bad about J. C. Watts, I’d be a racist? Opposing Rod Paige would be racist? Saying something unkind about Alan Keyes or Armstrong Williams would be racist? Criticizing …
No! No! No! It would be racist to support those Uncle Toms.
You know, I think I was right to begin with. This is an Obama nightmare. I just don’t know when it will end.
Heh. Silly redneck cracker. It never ends. Never.
Let’s end it November 4th with a McCain/Palin win.

or by the 6th or 7th , when the riot fires in Chicago are put out.
I have a wise old friend who uses a phrase to describe foolishness of the sort demonstrated by the giant talking head. My friend simply says, “I won’t play that game.”
Then he goes on to do what he wants, or say what he wants, or go where he wants, without paying any attention to fools who want him to play foolish games. I have been amazed at his ability to thwart college administrators, city officials, sales clerks, pollsters, and other carnival workers with this simple phrase.
I recommend this phrase to all and sundry as a useful counterstrike to the corrosive discourse of fools of all stripes, including Democrats.
I will play my chosen game, and let you play, too, if you want. I won’t play your game. I won’t play that game.
Well, if, God forbid, “the one” wins, come December 1st, this is going to be the new National
Anthem:
O-Bummer.
I thought we’re supposed to make liberal heads explode, not conservative ones.
A McPalin landslide would do it methinks. Everyone vote!
Bloody genius.
Eros — that was just plain wrong — funny as hell, but wrong!
That was amazing, Basil. And by amazing, I mean black.
What’s deeply sad is how long this joke has to go on before it’s a parody and not a reflection of something on Meet The Press.
Dear, sweet Lord am I tired of seeing BO on television. At least with Clinton, both of them, you had this spin where you had very, very deceptive half-truths where there was a certain art to listening for what they actually said versus what they were manipulating the more foolish into hearing. It was a fun little game that kept you on your toes. Listening to a BO speech is more like listening to a Communist or a post-modernist, where you can pretty much just flip the meaning of everything to the exact opposite if you want to find a fact anywhere in what is said. It’s just no fun at all and leaves me feeling like I’m stuck in Chavez’s Venezuela instead of our America. I just hope if we are stuck with this twit that past is prologue – that his complete lack of accomplishments as community organizer, state legislator, and senator are followed by a complete lack of action as president. BTW, that’s not a typo – I don’t think president should be capitalized anymore for POTUS if, God forbid, he’s elected.
Looks like I picked the wrong time to stop sniffing glue.
I love it – humor for the absurd!
I don’t think president should be capitalized anymore for POTUS if, God forbid, he’s elected.
Agreed, and not only that, we should give them a taste of their own medicine in how they treated Dubya, by referring to theirs as Mr. Obama. Or maybe ChimpyHusseinObamalamaHitlerStalindingdong.
The Road to Hell is paved with PC, and is slicker than glass.
I’m Barry, your milkchawklet Messiah, and I approve of the Message from The Big Giant Talkin’ Head!
Basil,
Brilliant! Awesome! Genius! Tremendous! Outstanding! Excellant!
(After all your work, I wouldn’t want to be niggardly with my praise!)
Good job, Basil!! I laughed my cracker ass off!!
(can I say “ass”, or is that a racist code word for “black”?)
