The Bigots of Baltimore

By Ben Domenech Posted in Comments (29) / Email this page » / Leave a comment »

Unashamed of their colleagues' villainy, Maryland's top Democrats have actually stood up in defense of the outrageous bigotry thrown at Republican Lt. Gov. Michael Steele. It was justified race-baiting, they say. And we say, of course you think that. He's a Republican.

These are the stakes then. On one side, you have a man of honor and principle. On the other, you have the remnants of the foulest form of racial hatred, the kind that defines people by the color of their skin, not the content of their character. You have, in other words, this:

Subject: [Info] Michael Steele

As far as I'm concerned, "Goldie" Steele is an Oreo cookie. I call him "Goldie" for 2 reasons. Goldie was Hitler's dog's name (and Steele is certainly Heir Ehrlich's lap dog) and also the name of the incompetent black mayor in "Back to the Future". The fact that the GOP and it's comrades get huffy about the comments is laughable. Vinny

StricklerSports I think this might be the same guy, it's registered in MD.

New slogan: Buy your celebrity autograph pictures from a racist!!

This is just another example of how its okay to be a democrat and a racist. Comparing the Lt. Governor of Maryland to both an "oreo" and a Nazi is unbelievable.  What's funny is comparing him to a character from "Back to the Future" is so laughable. You saw that character for a few minutes in the beginning and the middle of the movie. You don't know if he's Republican or Democrat or what he's done in the city. That's the most ridiculous political comparison I've ever seen.

The question is, why isn't this getting more media coverage? If a Republican did this, it would be plastered all over the news media. But since democrats are doing it, it's acceptable.

Sad, very sad.

Hitler's Dog by davebufkin

I think Vinny will find that the most common translation of the Fuerher's favorite canine is "Blondie" (as in Mrs. Bumstead) not "Goldie" (as in Hawn). His German must be very rusty because he mistakenly refers to the Governor as "Heir" Erlich. The German honorific is of course "Herr" not "Heir."

Bigots of Baltimore by Bourbeau

We shouldn't waste our time offering any sane assessment of this bigotry; it's always been justifiable for blacks to condemn their own conservative brethren and whites in any shape, manner or form.  And this, unfortunately is the latest example.  Do it to them, and their screaming racism at the top of their lungs.  Our best response to this is to congratulate them on their unqualified success at the hands of their Democratic saviors and wish them well.  After all, Bill Clinton thanked Rosa Parks yesterday for setting him free, as a young boy,  to allow him to move from the front of the bus to the back.  Little did the blacks know, he got off the damn bus and jumped into a limo.  

Racism defined by whiteowl

Several years ago I got to thinking what exactly 'racism' is.  I came up with my own working definition since I wasn't satisfied with what seemed to me the rather vague definitions out there.  So what I came up with was that if you predetermine how a person should behave or believe because of their race, you are racist.  It's a little more specific I think.  The terms 'Uncle Tom', 'oreo', 'n****r, etc, are all stellar examples of exactly this.  In addition, the idea that if you are 'black outside but white inside' is an obviously racist slam against all whites (yet Democrats don't seem to mind).  The implication is that it's a bad thing to be 'white inside'.  (Presumably, it would be almost as bad to be white outside.)

Seems that the Strickler website is a member of an internet mall and the owner wants to hear about merchant conduct. I wonder if they condone racist remarks?

From the Strickler website:

Customer complaints regarding purchases or merchant conduct are subject to review by TIAS.com. Merchants who are found to be in violation of mall rules will have their Web site shut down and will be barred from conducting further business through the mall. For assistance contact mall support

Just a fantasy by Adfumbler

Is it now okay to seek out a black female Democrat from Maryland, and throw boxes of "Aunt Jemima products?  Sure, they'd squeal like the hypocritical tortured pigs that they are, but it would certainly get the point across.

The liberals are the first to condem any conservative for implied racial insensitivity (look at Trent Lott) yet they refuse to denounce their own. We call that being a Hypocrite in my part of the united states.

Posted emails by cd6

I hate these kinds of posts, and the fact that it made front page is just sad. Both sides of the aisle have these kinds of hasteful racists (check protestwarrior if you want to see your own) and giving them attention just encourages them.

If you want your email box to fill up with crappy emails like that one from internet scum who says "hey, look, he got frontpaged, maybe I can too" then thats your decision, but it hardly represents the opinion of most democrats.

"On the other, you have the remnants of the foulest form of racial hatred, the kind that defines people by the color of their skin, not the content of their character" -only on the left? Get real.

Before by streiff

we go any farther, you have proof that Protest Warriors have used racist emails?

Because if you don't, color yourself gone.

better yet by JohnRichardson

throw these at one of the top Maryland Demorats

Huh by Charles Bird

...but it hardly represents the opinion of most democrats.

That may be true, but Democrats have been silent about decrying these tactics.  Tim Kaine faced the Wrath of Kos when he pulled his ads from Gilliard's dishonestly named News Blog, and Democratic leaders in Maryland are basically saying that Steele is a traitor to his race.  Where is the Howard Baker in your party who will step up and say enough of this?

Although Republicans who aren't German-American get called Nazis too.

proof? by cd6

Do I have proof they used racist emails? No, because they don't email me.

If you want examples of them being racist, though, you don't need to be emailed, just check their public forum.

Here's a thread about Muslims, which isn't exactly overflowing with tolerance

http://forum.protestwarrior.com/viewtopic.php?t=112343

looking for racist commentary.  Couldn't find it.

Perhaps you can be more specific?

Something that rises to the level of racist imagery being peddled about by the Left of Mr. Steele, perhaps, or the hateful email from "Vinny"?

-TS

Let's by streiff

be clear here.

You make an allegation that Protest Warriors were racists. As evidence you produce a message board which thinks the rioting in Paris is bad. I find it hard to equate a "lack of tolerance" towards lawbreaking with racism.

But I think your departure from here is long overdue.

Oh please by cd6

I linked to one thread where I knew there would be racism, because I assumed if you cared enough to see if they were racists, you could look for yourself. When i said "lack of tolerance" I was being sarcastic.

Here, I'll go the extra mile and copy and paste a racist post for you:



This is typical of the muslim, they are cowards, savages, one and all, and only have the nerve to attack the weak who cant fight back, these girls, the school in Beslan, sneak bombings in markets, etc..

Islam is the enemy, all of islam. The so-called extremists are the majority.



it came from here

I could find you more examples, but I've got better things to do then browse a messageboard focused soley on hate.

My point was there are racists on both sides. If you want to deny that, go ahead, but you're just going to look foolish.

And your "your departure from here is overdue" threatening comment (second in as many posts, even) isn't exactly conducive to productive debate, is it?

It seems you by streiff

have a pretty laissez faire definition of racism. Considering muslims are not a race and all. And I don't make threats.

Goldie Wilson? by GreatDarkSpot

...and also the name of the incompetent black mayor in "Back to the Future"

Okay, as a huge fan of Back to the Future, I have to take issue here.  Where is the evidence that Godlie Wilson was an incompetent mayor?  We see him as a hard working young black man in the 1950's pulling himself up by his own bootstraps - going to night school and expressing a desire to 'make something of myself'.  While it's true that parts of Hill Valley (the town that the movie takes place in) look run down in 1985, there is no evidence that this is Goldie Wilson's fault.  He is running for re-election, so he can't have been a total failure.  The only person we see objecting to him is a crazy woman who doesn't want him to replace a broken clock in the clock tower.

When you get down to it, liberals probably object to Goldie Wilson because he apperently succeds on his own - his 'can do' attitue about self-improvement sounds more GOP then Dem.  Perhaps he was a GOP mayor - quite possible given his attitude.  Perhaps it's a complement for Steele to be compared to him, though I'm sure it was not intended.

That's right by Larry

Vinny has some 'splainin to do.  Because there's no evidence in the movies that Mayor Goldie is incompetent, how on Earth, Vinny, did you draw that inference?  On account of his race?

See, two can play this game, Vin.

Way to go calling Gov. Ehrlich a Nazi.  You must hate German-Americans.  Racist.

Mencken by Cadwalj

He's doubled up in laughter in the great beyond.

Or wherever he is.

I think the whole Hitler comparison has lost all meaning to me.  The libs seem to use it for everything.  Bush is Hitler.  Cheney is Hitler.  Scalia is Hitler.  Alito is Hitler.  Steele is Hitler.  Tancredo is Hitler.  And then, of course, they mouth off against Israel a few breaths later.

I'm really just done with Hitler.  There is no more meaning.  In fact, next time I think I shall be singing of Springtime in Hitler's Germany when I hear this tired argument.

racism is  

any distinction, exclusion, restriction or preference based on race, colour, descent, or national or ethnic origin which has the purpose or effect of nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on an equal footing, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural or any other field of public life

many liberals by gamecock

don't realize they are racists
