Lawrence O'Donnell Tries New Angle On MSNBC's Omnipresent "Racist" Campaign
— Ace

Video at the link. When noted race-baiter Martin Bashir finds your proposition dubious, perhaps you've over-stepped.

MARTIN BASHIR: We have seen an early draft of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnellÂ’s forthcoming oration. Can I quote something from you? Â“For four years, Barack Obama has been running from the nationÂ’s problems, he hasnÂ’t been working to earn re-election. He has been working to earn a spot on the PGA Tour.Â” How about that?
LAWRENCE OÂ’DONNELL: Well, we know exactly what heÂ’s trying to do there. He is trying to align to Tiger Woods and surely, the Â— lifestyle of Tiger Woods with Barack Obama. Obviously, nothing could be further from the truth. They find every way they possibly can to Â–
BASHIR: Lawrence Â— donÂ’t you think Â— donÂ’t you think that what heÂ’s really trying to do is to suggest that the president is not paying attention to the central issues that come with the responsibility he has? Is he really Â– Mitch McConnell really making a connection with Tiger Woods who, of course, has become infamous for chasing various cocktail waitresses around Las Vegas and so on?
OÂ’DONNELL: Martin, there are many, many, many rhetorical choices you can make at any point in any speech to make whatever point up want to make. If he wanted to make the point that you just suggested and I think he does want to make that point, they had a menu of a minimum of ten different kinds of images that they could have raised. And I promise you, the speech writers went through, rejecting three or four before they land order that one. ThatÂ’s the one they want for a very deliberate reason. That Â— thereÂ’s Â– these people reach for every single possible racial double entendre they can find in every one of these speeches.

Why do young hipsters vote Democrat? Maybe you can argue about the latest social issue fad, but the real reason is that it's the party black people vote for. And they think being part of the same club makes it so that black people will think they're cool.

45 If he wanted to make the point that you just suggested and I think he does want to make that point, they had a menu of a minimum of ten different kinds of images that they could have raised.

Oh, good. So Lawrence O'Donnell* is admitting that the Preezy is a stuttering clusterfuck of a miserable failure who doesn't know what the fuck he's doing and is arguably the stupidest man in the room in any room he walks into. I mean, according to Lawrence O'Donnell*, McConnell could have chosen from a "minimum of ten different kinds of images" to illustrate that point. For example:

-> Feet up on the resolute desk
-> Hosting numerous parties at the White House
-> Lavish vacations
-> More fundraisers than any other President in history
-> "Slow jamming the news" on Jimmy Fallon
-> Getting knob-gobbled by the skanks on The View
-> Giving "hard hitting" interviews to such exalted groups as Entertainment Tonight, People Magazine, and a morning DJ show in New Mexico
-> Choosing his NCAA brackets on ESPN

Shall we go on, Lawrence*? I think you're really on to something here! Thanks!

61 For four years, Barack Obama has been running from the nationÂ’s problems, he hasnÂ’t been working to earn re-election. He has been working to earn a spot on the PGA Tour.

That's weak. barky hasn't been running from the nation's problems, he's been creating them and magnifying them. He hasn't been working to earn a spot on the PGA, he's been been honing his cheating and lying skills on the course.

Bitch McConnell can't even get any of this simple shit right. And it is an important distinction that Barky has SAVED OR CREATED problems for America, not run from them. He has pushed this nation towards the precipice (the way an American means "precipice", not the idiotically mistaken foreign way Barky used the term) not ignored it. Barky has been anything but an inactive player. He has antagonized this nation, broken our institutions, demeaned our mores and traditions and intentionally lowered the level of everythign around him to the gutter, where he was raised and still lives. Barky has assaulted America at every turn. ASSAULTED.

Bitch McConnell is an idiot.

62 OÂ’DONNELL: Martin, there are many, many, many rhetorical choices you can make at any point in any speech to make whatever point up want to make.

So, he's Humpty Dumpty? Words can mean whatever I want them to mean, so what he means is that he's racist and Obama is black, therefore he plays golf like Tiger Woods, or something.

90 One thing you folks may not know is that O'Donnell and Mathews have a contest to continually one-up each other with making racist connections within the GOP... the winner gets a beej and a rim job followed by a beej and a squirting dildo in the anoos--meaning it is a significant prize to win, and the competition has been fierce.

The comparison isn't even fair! Tiger actually had to work hard to reach his success. Obama just had to drift along on a wave of affirmative action and pathetic white guilt.

116 Well of course a golf reference is intended to be racist.

If there's one thing golf is known for, it's the popularity of the sport amongst black people.

Anyone who golfs can attest to the fact that golf courses are primarily used by urban youths wearing saggy pants hanging below their waists and blaring rap music from their portable stereos, drinking 40 ounce malt beverages purchased from the pro shop while playing a long 18 holes.

My word, one can hardly find a green not littered with empty pork rind bags and grape soda bottles left behind by the multitudes of African American golfers speaking loudly on their cell phones while putting.

Perhaps one day our racial divisions will be sufficiently healed that even old white men in plaid shorts and black socks will be welcomed on the nations many golf courses and country clubs, but alas that day has not yet come.

155 Well it's obvious that by talking about Golf, he's trying to bring up the Three Stooges, who did a famous photo about golfing. In other of their shorts, they had a less-than-PC image of African Americans and therefore the golf angle is just a nice way to say Obama's just like the black folks in those pictures. Then later he goes on to discuss "economy". Now obviously the economy was a major point of Karl Marx and Stalin and HITLER, so the word economy is just a dog-whistle for calling him a murderous Commie. Plus calling Larry a "fat pig" is an OBVIOUS double-talk way of bringing up Animal Farm, and just another way of painting a foe as a racist. It's all so fucking obvious when you realize everything a Republican says is racially motivated, except when it's motivated by communism, or their inherent inborn evil. And in closing: Fuck you, Larry.

BREAKING: RYAN TO Â‘DECONSTRUCTÂ’ THE OBAMA AGENDA IN SPEECHÂ… A Republican source familiar with the speech that Rep. Paul Ryan will deliver tonight tells CNNÂ’s Dana Bash that the vice presidential candidate will spend most of the policy section of his speech on Â“economic issues in his wheel house.Â” Ryan, says the source, will split his speech into thirds and discuss his Medicare plan (including Obamacare), the stimulus program and the national debt.

241 I don't know why we have to deny that race is relevant in this election. Barack Obama was a product of liberal affirmative action policies which put black people in positions based on their race, rather than on any ability. The whole hype around Obama was based on him being black. If Obama was white, his campaign would have faded out in late 2007 and nobody would remember him today. So race is a perfectly legitimate subject to bring up.

What a fucking retard. Unreal. And I'm not sure which is worse, if this retard actually THINKS that way, or if he is intentionally misleading. It really doesn't matter.
