As the country rapidly diversifies, Republicans are presenting a convention that is almost entirely white. To a large extent, the Republican Party still is — The White-Bigot Party.

As McCain’s 96 year old mother gazed listlessly into the rafters of the convention hall and with ReTHUGlicans and a sprinkling of ReTHUGliTOMS salivating like hungry, poisonous black mambas,…. and howling like a pack of hyenas, Sarah ‘Barracuda‘ Palin delivered a heavily choreographed speech, designed to rally the THUG/BIGOT base of the Republican party.

The speech was delivered right after MAFIA GOON — the former mayor of New York, Rudy Giuliani had finished mocking, insulting and mis-representing Obama’s positions…. and topping it up with a dose of 9/11 fear-mongering.

Rudy Giuliani “The Goon” Rips Into Obama

At the beginning of her speech I sensed some tension in her, but the “Killer From Wasilla” unwinded and got more comfortable as the speech progressed.

She spoke of her family, including her eldest son, who is about to be deployed to Iraq in the US Army, and her younger son, who has Down’s Syndrome.

In the speech, she assailed Obama, Biden and the “Liberal” media: “I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a “community organizer,” except that you have actual responsibilities. I might add that in small towns, we don’t quite know what to make of a candidate who lavishes praise on working people when they are listening, and then talks about how bitterly they cling to their religion and guns when those people aren’t listening.” “We tend to prefer candidates who don’t talk about us one way in Scranton and another way in San Francisco.”

Read…..working people — how bitterly they cling to their religion and guns ……is a direct appeal to the White BIGOT VOTE.

The Barracuda (reading a speech prepared by McCain’s THUGS) went on to mis-represent and mock Obama’s record, lying about her own at the same time, and smothering everything with heavy doses of recycled Republican Fear-Mongering.

“And there is much to like and admire about our opponent.” But listening to him speak, it’s easy to forget that this is a man who has authored two memoirs but not a single major law or reform – not even in the state senate.”

   This could be America’s next Vice-President

This is a man who can give an entire speech about the wars America is fighting, and never use the word “victory” except when he’s talking about his own campaign.”

“But when the cloud of rhetoric has passed … when the roar of the crowd fades away … when the stadium lights go out, and those Styrofoam Greek columns are hauled back to some studio lot – what exactly is our opponent’s plan?”

“What does he actually seek to accomplish, after he’s done turning back the waters and healing the planet?” The answer is to make government bigger … take more of your money … give you more orders from Washington … and to reduce the strength of America in a dangerous world.”

“America needs more energy … our opponent is against producing it….,” said Sarah.

Towards the end of the speech, when she got more comfortable, “Dame Sarah” changed gears, dishing out “time-tested” Republican insults: “Taxes are too high!” . . . “Obama will raise your taxes!” . . . “Tax increases!” . . . “He will raise income taxes!” … “He will raise payroll taxes!” … “He will raise investment income taxes!” … “He will raise the death tax!” . . . “He will raise business taxes!” . . . ["Big Government!"] . . . ["Obama will KILL YOU!"] . . . ["Obama is a MUSLIM"] . . . ["Obama is a Kenyan Communist!"] . . . ["The Terrorists are here .. in this hall!"] . . . ["I'll create more jobs!"] . . . ["I'll cut the deficit!"] . . . ["I'll start the war!"] . . . ["I'll keep those Negroes in their place!"]……LOL!, pure PoliTRICKS!

Meanwhile — Overheard: Obama might pursue criminal charges against Bush

REFERENCES:

1. Rudy Giuliani — “America’s THUG”

They call him “America’s Mayor.” But to blacks that title sugarcoats Rudy Giuliani’s real reputation as one of the most racially divisive leaders in the nation. Peter Noel’s book puts Giuliani’s often-ignored record of oppressing the “other New York” front and center in the 2008 presidential race.

Noel was a witness to “Giuliani time” in New York. As the race beat journalist for “The Village Voice,” he reported exclusively on the police brutality that rained down on blacks, and the denigration of black leadership by Giuliani. In this collection of his exposs, Noel provides stunning insights into the most notorious events of Giuliani’s tenure, including the execution-style killing of Amadou Diallo and the sadistic torture of Abner Louima. Both men-like many black victims of Giuliani’s stop-and-frisk policing-were innocent of any wrongdoing.

This brutality sparked a new black activist movement. Scores, including Jesse Jackson, were arrested-and Peter Noel was there to cover it. No journalist was more insightful about the rise of Al Sharpton, Khallid Muhammad’s “Million Youth March,” and Giuliani’s demonization of David Dinkins, the city’s first black mayor. There are interviews with major political players, inside accounts of the shifting alliances and violent conflicts between ethnic groups, and a stinging critique of the white-dominated media. And then there is Peter Noel’s interview with Giuliani, which took the form of a street fight in Harlem.

In these eloquent, often searing pieces, written in an outraged and authentic voice, Peter Noel spoke truth to the power of an “Afriphobic” mayor. In this revealing book, he still does.

GOP Pundits Trash Palin

 Columnist – John Sammon
Barack Obama unfortunately has got assassination attempt written all over him. I wish I didn’t have to say this, but my clairvoyant sensors are ringing. Before you laugh, I wrote on my blog Sammonsays that “people would drown en mass” five days before Hurricane Katrina struck (titled Doomsday Five). Katrina was also a Category Five storm.

I also accurately predicted the outcome of the Iraq War six years ago, and the death of the TV Crocodile Hunter before they happened.

I could go on.

Obama has got several things about him to make me issue this warning (a new version of the Ides of March).

First, he’s personable and young. A prime target. Anyone promising change or a new direction runs more risk because they represent a threat to the old established business-as-usual moneyed interests. It also goes without saying that as the first African American president, Obama will become a target to every racist nut case.

America is a violent country. A country of haters. The most violent in the world.

Also, Democrats by their very nature consider themselves to be “populists.” That means they seem to like the so-called “common people,” and actually make physical attempts to go out among them and shake hands, which leaves them more vulnerable to assassination.

Republicans on the other hand tend to be more secretive. They believe in secret government. As a rule, they don’t like wading through crowds, “average” people for whom they often have disdain. Usually, the only time you see George Bush is when he waves walking across the lawn from his helicopter.

But it’s Obama’s perceived challenge to the fat cats that has me really worried, and my clairvoyant harp strings chiming.

The oil companies are strangling the American people, raising gas prices. They always explain that their to-infinity profits are simply a result of rewarding stock holders. But they’re killing the golden goose. Without knowing it.

Rising prices will cause Americans to seek other means of travel and boycott gasoline, which in turn will lessen global warming. Rising fuel prices will also cause other, new entrepreneurs to fill the gap by creating hybrid, electric and more fuel efficient cars.

Here’s a historical example. What happened in Prohibition when Americans were confronted with a situation (law) that to them was unacceptable? They found ways around it. They made their own booze.

Can’t you see the irony? In their greed and stupidity, oil company executives are (unwittingly) killing their own industry and helping the environment.

But back to Obama. Obama will try to rein in big oil. He may also attempt universal health care. This will put him on the hit list of moneyed interests.

For if the truth be known, in some ways, the oil company moguls and those in the insurance and health industry games are not that different from the Mafia and organized crime. They have lucrative windfalls they will fanatically protect. Billions are at stake.

Any political leader who attempts real change to the industrial, military, multi mega world conglomerate that America representsâ?¦will be viewed as a grave threat.

I’ll warn you all that Obama is a prime candidate for assassination. And it makes me sick to think about it.

I believe Obama will be the victim of an assassination attempt if he’s elected. That’s sad, because he may be the last, best hope we have to retain any semblance of our own humanity.
