I’ve seen Powell called a house negro before. By Harry Belafonte. Also Condelezza Rice. And Clarence Thomas. etc. for some reason opponents are always too willing to call successful US blacks for house negroes. But the Al-Qaeda dude also called Obama an apostate (“murtad”). I so hope this belief spread in The Middle East. I would love to see the Saudi swine squirm at having to welcome a man they secretly think should be stoned to death.

How can you call someone who _owns_ \*the house, a “house negro”?  
\*figuratively, of course.

Al Quaeda’s #2 man? We are always killing or capturing the #2 guy. He ought to wear a red shirt a la Star Trek.

Be fair, he used the more polite “House Negro.”  
Gu and Ffaw.

I really hate violence but a nastly little part of me keeps envisioning The Big O stalking out of an Afghan cave toting Osama’s severed head. With a Palin-wink to the camera he does a picture perfect jump shot and swished the noggin into a garbage can, fist bumps Mrs. Obama, who is sporting a tastefully complimentary cammo dress, and then says, “Ok, now has anyone seen that al-Zawahiri clown?”

I guess living in a cave gives you all kind of balls.

Oh, I wouldn’t pay much heed to little Ralphie. He’s got a sore spot for candidates who actually have a chance at winning the Presidency, and aren’t just running their own little vanity project as a perennial distraction. How embarrassing is it that (some) people actually once took him seriously?

Well, if you think about it, any time the #2 guy gets popped there’s a vacancy that needs to be filled. So #3 moves to #2, #4 to #3, etc.

That kinda reminds me of that TV show, The Prisoner, and at the beginning of every episode, part of it would go…

Who are you?  
I am the NEW #2…

I wish. They didn’t have half the monthly mission we did and the AF recruiter regularly went home at 5 _ **even when he didn’t make his quota** _. 🙂

Actually I think we should go after the number 3 guy just to shake AQ up a bit. That or McCain should just go on and tell Bush how to catch Bin Laden.

Anyone else find it terribly funny that Americans have been calling Obama a “Muslim terrorist”, but this guy seems to be calling him a Jew? What a wonderful world we live in, where ethnicity is an insult.

I’m assuming this is in reference to Nader telling an interviewer that, basically, it remains to be seen whether Obama chooses to be an “Uncle Sam” (who stands up for all Americans) or an “Uncle Tom” (who capitulates to corporate interests.)
