The Root of all Wingnutterdom

Once again I find myself praising Jeff Schneider's America's Right blog...certainly he may not intend his writings to support my causes, however I think he'd appreciate the accolades.  I continue to find Jeff's updates coherent, rational, and meaningful despite being unapologetically conservative.  In his coverage of the press conference of those who challenge Obama's eligibility for office, I found this nugget of information which I believe cuts straight to the core of what people like Donofrio, Berg, and Schulz are really trying to prove with their questions and claims...

In reporting the various statements from those individuals presenting at the conference, America's Right posts:

Schulz stated that “as supreme law of the land, the Constitution is all that stands between freedom and tyranny.” He noted that “the Constitution is not a menu” and that we “do not get to pick and choose” which provisions and guidelines to follow, maintaining that the Natural Born Citizen clause was designed by our founders to “safeguard our nation from outside influence.”

This is the first of two common themes we see from the right wing as they attack Obama.  Those two themes being fear of Islam and racism, thought not always the way you think, as I'll show you in a moment.  Clearly, the "outside influence" that Schulz is referring to here can only be construed as Islamic influence, because these wingnuts believe Obama is a secret Muslim.  What other influence would they be concerned with?  What other connections has Obama been purported to have that don't fall under the umbrella of scary brown people?  Islam would be the obvious target, although I'll concede that surely there are those that would draw communism or totalitarianism into the mix for some small reason or another...but if you're going to make waves you need to put your weight behind pushing the big rock into the water and I think Islamic influence is the biggest rock they've got.

Now my second point on racism, I mentioned, isn't what you'd normally think.  Ironically, I'm talking about reverse racism here, against whites...now why would racism against whites have an effect on a black president?  The answer lies here in the flambouyant rantings of Rev. James David Manning, who prays that "this long-legged mack-daddy will not be allowed to take the oath of office on the 20th of January."

“This has been a historical election, and January 20th will be a historical day,” Manning said. “However, the road to the office of president of the United States still runs exclusively through the womb of a white woman. There has never been a black womb which has produced a black president. As of today, unless you have a white womb, you cannot produce a son who will be president of the United States.”

“We don’t know who this man is,” he said, cautioning his fellow African-Americans not to accept this fruit of a white woman as their redeemer. “He’s no Booker T. Washington, I’ll tell you that. He’s no Martin Luther King. But he does possess the potential to be the most prolific con-man in the history of this country. It is my prayer that January 20th will not happen, that Barack Hussein Obama will not be inaugurated. This man has come from the womb of a white woman.”

Manning, being unable to participate in racism of the traditional sense that the rest of us enjoy (hint of sarcasm, if you please) finds a way to reverse the discrimination against whites and offers his valuable input on why Obama must be doubted.  Forget about all those trailer-trash white supremacists decrying Obama's blackness as a reason why he should not be president, for a black man, Obama isn't black enough since he had a white mom and therefore the historic significance of electing a black man is negated.

So, there you have it...when given the opportunity to make their case, the retarded right will never fail to show their true colors and reveal the fear and hatred that fuels their constant struggle for attention in the absence of any real issue to argue.

And again, thanks to America's Right for reporting on this momentous exhibition of stupidity and ignorance.  I really do respect your writing and viewpoints Jeff and you've maintained a level of journalistic integrity in your reports that deserves my compliments.  I don't agree with you on many points but I certainly appreciate your diligence in reporting relevant topics to conservatism...and I'm happy to eat it up and crap it back out all over the folks who give your kind a bad name.
