Here’s a sample of the kind of attacks Obama will be facing because of his win in Iowa. It’s pretty disturbing.
Did the weakest Dem candidate for the general election won tonight? I think so. By sending forth Hussein Osama out of Iowa, Democrats have unwittingly weakened their general election prospects.
Hussein’s exotic mixture of radical liberalism, Kwanzaa Socialism, antipathy towards the unborn, and weakness against his jihadi brethren will all come back to destroy him against almost any Republican opponent, even the snake-grope from Hope.
I think we as Republicans should be celebrating tonight at the coronation of Hussein, in whose presence millions of Democrat women, from elementary school teachers to journalism majors to law school grads to dykes on bikes will go weak in their knees.
As defenders of this great Republic, and of the pinnacle of Western civilization that it represents, we should all come together tonight and agree on a common strategy that will keep the White House from becoming a madrassa.
God Bless America, Land of the Free.
Pam has more…And expect a ton of those nasty spam type emails attacking Obama to flood your in-boxes that are usually meant for Hillary. One more thing—how did that Jim Robinson endorsement of Thompson work out for the Freepers?
No Trackbacks To “The Freepers attack Obama“
Hussein Osama….. Hahahaah! They are already getting desperate.
Haha, they’re like parodies of themselves. It’s great. I am all for reaching out and trying to work with every one who’s interested and willing and has more than 7 brain cells, but trying to have discussions with freepers is like working out physics equations with a crackhead.
I’d expected as much, unfortunately. I guess the real question is whether people can be convinced to be their worse or better selves when they go to the ballots next November. Of course, it doesn’t really matter who would be the Dem nominee - these (insert foul term here) have no shame, and will use any tool, violate any sense of decorum to win.
“Hussein’s exotic mixture of radical liberalism, Kwanzaa Socialism, antipathy towards the unborn, and weakness against his jihadi brethren will all come back to destroy him against almost any Republican opponent, even the snake-grope from Hope.”
When I read something like this I always think it has to be an over the top satire of a right wing nut. It never turns out to be because they really believe what they write.
Amazing.
I. Think. I’m. Going. To. Be. Sick…
Freepers. What a waste of O2.
I like Obama on a personal level.
But what has the guy actually ACCOMPLISHED in congress?
The one thing that I learned is he pushed a bill through that required police interrogations to be videotaped in Illinois - kudos to him on that.
Other than that, I am drawing a blank.
After asking people on Daily Kos, I got the above example and the rest of the commenters advised me to “just watch the man” and “get his energy”.
I guess being a high school debate team level public speaker is good enough to become a president of the Yoo Ess of Ey these days.
Oh and Oprah likes him.
(Shhhh! For the record I like Gravel and, since that good, progressive, intelligent candidate has no chance in hell in todays world of lobbyists controlling elections, I will probably go with Edwards).
And expect a ton of those nasty spam type emails attacking Obama to flood your in-boxes that are usually meant for Hillary.
Got one today already!
Is this real? Call me naive but you’ve got to be kidding!!!
I’m simply stunned…
what the hell is Kwanzaa Socialism?
It seems REMARKABLY racist, but maybe it actually means something.
Anonymouse @ 3:
You mean they’ve developed enough skills to use tools? Are they primates yet?
Dear John,
I have my own thoughts on this subject. I don’t know if you would agree but, there are definitely some sinister forces from a few different directions on the right regarding Obama. They hate him and love him at the same time in my eyes. It is just that they hate Hillary Clinton even more so. Joe Conason wrote a very good article back in December, 2007, on this subject.
Yes, the Republicans when and where they can, will be voting for Barack Obama in any primary election they can. They want Hillary Clinton to lose in the primaries and send Barack Obama to face the Republican challenger in the general election. People under 30 for example are less likely to vote in the 2008 presidential election. A McCain-Obama race, will ultimately go to McCain, due to the inexperience of Obama and the war record of McCain. Unless one is naïve then, this little bit of information would be lost. Yes, the Republicans “whom supposedly love Obama, and other Independents who would usually vote Republican in these primaries are voting for Obama, but don’t expect those people to repeat this vote in November, 2008. Hillary would give McCain or other Republicans a much tougher fight. Bill after all, did beat the GOP TWICE.
Check this article out by Joe Conason:
Why conservatives love Barack Obama
Clinton haters who think the Illinois senator can beat Hillary support him now, but their affection will fade if he gets the nomination.
By Joe Conason
Salon.com
Dec. 21, 2007 | In the weeks since Karl Rove offered his unsolicited advice on how to defeat Hillary Clinton in the pages of the Financial Times, right-wing expressions of support for Barack Obama have become increasingly conspicuous and voluble. Although often couched in high-flown moral terms that accept the Illinois senator’s definition of himself as a fresh and unsullied figure, his Republican endorsers cannot quite conceal their underlying animus.
They hate Hillary Clinton and they think he just might be able to beat her.
Exactly why the American right hates the Clintons so fervidly remains a subject of debate among both political scientists and psychiatrists, but the persistence of those emotions is beyond dispute, especially among commentators and activists with little actual exposure to Hillary Clinton herself. (Evidently her conservative colleagues in the Senate have developed warmer feelings for the first lady they once demonized, but that’s another topic.) So powerful is their fury that they will not hesitate to promote the career of a liberal black politician whose background and religious affiliation they regard with suspicion. Of course, they’re also quite confident that they can bring him down later, too.
For the moment, at least, he is their shining hero. That is why the Weekly Standard ran a cover story in early December that provided a swooning rehash of Obama’s life story and a series of masterful scenes from the campaign trail. (”He sounds like a man who knows what he’s talking about and knows what he wants to do. There are no questions that catch him off guard, no issues he hasn’t considered.”) Written by Stephen Hayes, the admiring biographer of Dick Cheney and perhaps the last journalist on earth who still believes that Saddam Hussein was allied with al-Qaida, the flattering Obama profile raises none of the expected concerns over his eagerness to negotiate with the Iranians and other enemies of democracy. Why spoil the moment?

Yes, experience does count. The Democrats and the little Obama flag wavers will lose BIG in a general election despite the hype.
Edwards would also do much better than Obama in a general election. Keep drinking whatever Kool-Aid the fluffy-fluffs give you on your cable TV!
Why do we draw attention to what these people say, as if they have any importance?
I understand drawing attention to the words of authority figures for the sake of accountability, but this is just a waste of time and space.
If we took time to illustrate all the stupid stuff on the internet …
Who’s Hussein?
Kwanzaa is a misspelled word, originally from the Swahili word kwanza, to set up a fake holiday..
This was all part and parcel of an attempt in the 1960’s to make Swahili a national language
for Africa, a continent of hundreds of languages, maybe even thousands.
And of course socialism is just their buzz word for any policy that doesn’t favor the fascist corporate party and all their elites.
*yawn* that’s the best they got? Grade school disparagings? The OVERWHELMING turnout in Iowa, of all places, on the Dem side makes it clear that the 25% Freepers are just that . . . 25%. BFD. Drag on knuckles . . . drag on.
Hilarious! this is not an attack! It is a sketch on SNL. They even said “dykes on bikes” hahaha! and it is a funny. it rhymes!!!
the attacks appeal to bigots…what can I say..
“Did the weakest Dem candidate for the general election won tonight?”
That’s “win” with an ‘i’, Mr. Spiccoli.
The Viscount @ 7:
What does Hillary get in her in-box?
George Bush. Dumbest.Fucker.Ever.Born.
I guess his supporters are actualy a little dumber, but you all know what I mean….
This isn’t worrying. The only people tripe like that would appeal to, aren’t voting for Obama anyway.
Here’s a great site to keep on hand. It’s great for letting you know if what the candidates are saying is true.
Be sure and check out their “pants on fire” page. It tells you about garbage the freepers send out and whether or not it’s true.
“his jihadi brethren”
This is simply garbage. The only people that buy into this are still hoping that Tom Tancredo gets back into the Presidential race.
Funny how these people attacking “Hussein” is an attack of Obama Barack’s name (which sounds suspiciously Islamic to them).
These are the same folk who insist we’re against Romney because of his Mormonism, before defeating him in Iowa presumably for the same reason, while claiming Christians are under attack.
Wow, it’s so sad but funny that they feel so threatened by Kwanzaa as to use it as an epithet.
I’m still cramping up from laughing so hard at Sean Hannity- His BFF Rudy Giuliani finished LAST. He’s not taking any calls about it on his radio show, which isn’t surprising.
Formula of the GOP:
1. Send out voters where they can to vote in Obama over Hillary Clinton as in Iowa.
2. Republicans will then settle on their own candidate in a unity fashion at the 2008 Republican National Comvention.
3. The 2008 primaries are more about rigging the Democrats choice to the liking of the GOP, then its about actually picking the 2008 Republican presidential nominee. That is why the right wing pundits on the networks are already saying that the choice for the GOP may not be settled until their Republican National Comvention.
Read between the lines here folks. Take care.
For someone that says “we as Republicans should be celebrating,” that person doesn’t sound very happy. We all know Republicans want Clinton to win the nomination.
Mr. XXXX @ 10:
If experience counts why would Edwards do so much better than Obama? Edwards has only held one elected office and that for only one term.
Lost in the media focus on the victories of the supposed “change” candidates in Iowa last night are the dramatic differences in the priorities of each party’s voters. As Iowa Democrats headed to their caucuses in record numbers last night, the sputtering American economy topped their list of concerns. But in a disturbing hint of things to come from the GOP, Iowa Republicans instead were looking for someone to blame in making immigration their most important issue.
For the details on the parties’ different priorities, see:
“Iowa Aftermath: Immigration the New GOP Wedge Issue in ‘08.”
Only in the Village is a win a loss.
Also, can someone please explain to me what the fug Kwanzaa Socialism is? I have a creeping suspicion it only exists as an entry on Conservapedia.
Amato: You’re surely no more surprised than I am about the pissants coming out the woodwork in the aftermath of Obama’s win in Iowa.
As to how it should be handled? Why not take a cue from Tecumseh Sherman, who enlightened a certain General Wilson about their mutual commanding officer: “Wilson, I’m a damned sight smarter man than Grant; I know more about organization, supply and administration and about everything else than he does; but I’ll tell you where he beats me and where he beats the world. He don’t care a damn for what the enemy does out of his sight but it scares me like hell. I’m more nervous than he is. I am much more likely to change my orders or to countermarch my command than he is. He uses such information as he has according to his best judgement; he issues his orders and does his level best to carry them out without much reference to what is going on about him…”.
Yeah, well did anyone hear the articulate Jewish woman who called into the Ed Schultz show the other day, saying that we “were at war with Islam”? And that she would never vote for a Muslim like Obama, who went to a madrassa?
Propaganda works.
Okay… here’s why I think this is scary (and have always thought so). This kind of crap insights the freepers on the right who are heavily armed and prone to delusions of persecution. There’s a reason that many great progressives in the past have been targeted by the assassin’s bullet. From Lincoln to the JFK/RFK/Martin Luther King Jr. tragedies, the parasitic paranoids who latch on to this kind of attack through innuendo sincerely believe this crap and eventually they get panicked enough to act on their ignorant fears.
I truly worry about Obama’s safety given that in the more conservative parts of this country he has many marks against him: i.e.- he’s black, he’s liberal, he’s got Muslim heritage, and he’s go two names that sound similar to two well-known enemies of the US. I can’t tell you how many bottom feeders that combo will freak out. Posts like the one cited above just serve to encourage potential disaster (along with just showing that anyone with a 60 IQ and a computer can post on the internet these days)
Too be honest, I’m more worried about Diebold than the freepers.
I can’t believe you link to freerepublic.
I can’t go to that site. It seriously makes me ill.
Republicans should be celebrating that they aren’t yet up on charges of treason!
not YET.
Ahhh, yes. The republican voice. What can we say about the republican voice…
After that wholly un-American rant,the author finishes with:”God Bless America, Land of the Free.”Its interesting really how the MSM will allow this typically wingnut hatred to fly under their radar,while at the same time bemoaning the “Angry Left”.
C-span had an open mic call in show a few minutes ago and two callers said they were planning not to vote repub, but after hearing Huckabee speak, they had decided to vote for him. They referred to him not being part of the machine and a down to earth man.
Sounds like people are once again liking the “good old boy” image. Jesus, haven’t they learned by now that a “good old boy” can totally screw our country right into the ground? Next you’ll hear people like this say he’s the kind of guy they would like to have a root-beer with. (I’m assuming the good preacher doesn’t drink alcoholic beverages)
Bah, they can huff and puff, but at the end of the race, they’ll only blow. The Republiscum smear machine is finished. Long live legitimate debate.
Ronin Tetsuro @ 29:
Break it down. To conservatives ‘kwanzaa’ means black, ‘Socialism’ means welfare.
sluggirl @ 9:
You mean they’ve developed enough skills to use tools? Are they primates yet?
No, it’s impossible for creationists to evolve. Case and point.
Their upset because Obama defeated Fred. FR’s founder endorses Fred. Go Figure!
Filthy Harry @ 27:
I see that you want another loss by the Democrats in the 2008 presidential election.
I see you are a glutton for punishment. If you think that Obama is a better choice to “win” then go with him.
Personally, Edwards is the only Democrat who has a cross-over appeal which is not coming from sinister forces.
I remember back in 2004, when I knew people here in CT that voted for Kerry in the primary and then backed Bush in the general election. Things like this are done all the time.
The GOP wanted Bush to go up against Kerry just like they want Obama in the 2008 election.
Michael Dukakis already warned the Democrats that they should not think that they have the 2008 presidential election all wrapped up.
Tequila @ 38:
If only.
The fuck is “Kwanzaa Socialism”? Oh, I get it - Obama is African American and Africans celebrate Kwanzaa. Yeah, I get it. Hey freepers, that’s some racial slur you got their. Why not just go out and scream “How the fuck did this n***er win?” I mean, that IS what you’re driving at, isn’t it? And he won in Iowa - arguably the whitest of the early primary states. What the hell you think he’s gonna do when he gets to Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York, Illinois, South Carolina (you know, the states with large numbers of “those people” living in them? The freepers can’t handle the fact that even Republicans don’t like their choice of candidates - hey, sucks to be you guys doesn’t it. Listen, if Edwards can’t pull out in front, and Obama is the Democratic Presidential nominee, he WILL be the next President of the United States. My advice to the reichwing freaks: Get out your precious gun collections and start rapturing yourselves right now - avoid the rush later.
Orangutan. @ 32:
Well said! Me too!
Mr. XXXX, did Dukakis really say that?
Cuz, I said that too.
Correction: “That’s some racial slur you got there…” - tucking fypos!
