Updated: Obama’s Racial Ramrodding

Ann Coulter, Barack Obama, Democrats, Elections 2008, Race, Racism

Obama just can’t stop pounding on grandma. Today he told a radio show host that the woman who raised him with a great deal of love apparently was “a typical white woman.” Trust me, this was not a compliment. I can’t help thinking that Rev. Wright is not the only one to have coached Obama for over 20 years. Militant Mama Obama (as opposed grandma Obama), any one?

In any event, good luck finding the item on the Internet, although even Obama Boy Anderson Cooper covered it, but failed to post it. Send us a link if you get lucky.

Against the backdrop of Barack beating up on grandma yet again, my WND column is apropos. Frequenters of Barely a Blog will be very familiar with the themes:

“Richly revealing was the way Obama tarred his maternal (white) grandma with the taint of racism because she ‘once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street,’ among her other cardinal sins…”

“Obama gets away with conjecture—he saddles white America with black America’s woes. Grandma, however, has still not acquitted herself for expressing a visceral fear borne of the brutal reality of crime in this country…”

Read the complete WND column, “Obama’s Racial Ramrodding.”

Update (March 21): I occasionally check DIGG to see what they’re saying.
Incidentally, appended to last week’s column was a long comment in support of the Palestinian cause. It dealt with the issues (although his facts were problematic). The writer did not attack me for having a different (correct) perspective.
The missive may not have been very intelligent, but it is an example of how anyone who aspires to debate must proceed.
How different is this example from the addled orgy of idiocy directed at Mercer, into which the congenital idiot “Shshshaun” plunged the lost souls on the Jewcy.com chat board. “Shshshsaun” is a creature I had allowed, in my generosity, to post on BAB. (Here is his first offering.) Kudos to Dan, our reader, for trying to tutor that malevolent moron in clear thinking. A waste of time, but Dan did at least get the chat on track again.

This one is a DIGG to “Obama’s Racial Ramrodding”:

Dear Ilana,

“… Ilana’s summary blows Ann Coulter’s off the map. You are an excellent communicator. I must state that if it wasn’t for Corsi, Vox, you and a few others I would have no reason to visit WND. Great job.”

Canadian Loony NOT on Life-Support

Canada, Economy

Bill O’Reilly will not like this, but the Canadian economy, tied as it is at the hip to ours, is doing just fine. Their loony is not on life-support like our dollar. No banks have gone under there—not yet.

This may mystify American teletwits (and their viewers). That’s because they try to present the recession as a function of market failure unmoored from the political class’s pillaging. It’s the housing market, the morons exclaim. Or Barack Obama’s white grandma.

Canada’s banks, I believe, are less promiscuous about increasing the money supply. Because its central bank is not as lenient about allowing the commercial banks to pyramid checkbook money on top of their own reserves, it’s my understanding they’ll be doing much less feel-good lending than our whorish paper peddlers.

Correct me if I’m wrong about that. I’m not, however, wrong about the Canadian economy, which is, so far, humming along.

Update 2: The Ethnic Particularism Of Barack Obama

Barack Obama, Democrats, Elections 2008, Race, Racism

“The solutions offered by conservative commentators to Barack Obama’s existential crisis have been conspicuous in their shallowness. Unlike Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Victor Davis Hanson is no fake scholar; Hanson has intellectual heft. Yet he proposed that ‘all Obama would have to do is apologize, quit the church, and begin talking about the issues.’

How about admitting himself to rehab, or, even better, expiating on Oprah? (I read on the Los Angeles Times’ blog that Oprah, wise woman that she is, had long ago quit Trinity United Church of Christ for reasons that evaded Obama, her protégé.)

No, I give Obama credit. His reaction to the nation-wide reaction to Rev. Wright’s fulminating—everywhere on full display—was anything but shallow. It was, however, profoundly disturbing.”

Read the complete column, “The Ethnic Particularism Of Barack Obama,” on Jewcy.com. Join the debate on Jewcy; post your comments here, or, even better, do both.

Update 1: What fun; I’ve been fending off a few attacks on the Jewcy Comments forum, here. Jump in.

Update 2: Well, I learned my lesson and that is never to mix it up with the masses. This was the first time I went ahead and partook in an open forum exchange. Before long, the malignant “Shshshshaun,” with whom I’ve been very generous on this forum over the years, chimed in, began attributing quotations to me that are not mine, assigning views to me that aren’t mine, and lumping me with company I do not keep.
This is the Zeitgeist folks. People cannot tell assertion from argument; fact from fiction. As to manners and ethics; they do not exist. One cannot retain dignity in debate around fulminating hordes.
The funny thing is this non-entity; this repulsive little unmanly maggot—here is one of his first letters to our forum, which one headless chicken on the Jewcy forum has crowned a fine argument—thinks he can, with his limited cerebral agility and reach, damage me intellectually. Who raises these inflated gas bags—and there are many like maggot man roaming the Internet—to believe they are what they’re not?

Lesson learned: stay far from the madding crowds. And stop allowing scum onto Barely a Blog.

Updated: Slavery’s YOUR Original Sin

Barack Obama, Crime, Democracy, Elections 2008, Race, Racism

In case you’ve been wondering where I’ve been all day after that disturbing speech Obama gave:

I’ve been writing an exclusive analysis of it for this site, Jewcy.com.

Well, we’ll see how fabulous Jewcy is once the essay is up. It sure doesn’t comport with other odes to Obama they’ve erected there already. What does cohere perfectly is Obama’s worldview, which revolves around slavery and race; and his wicked impious pastor’s philosophy. They are of a piece.

Not inelegantly, Obama revealed his true colors. Again, a profoundly disturbing address, despite the anti-intellectual adulation with which it is being greeted in all too many corners.

I hope to be able to link to my analysis shortly.

Update (March 19): On Jewcy.com “The Ethnic Particularism of Barack Obama By Ilana Mercer.” Details in this blog post.
