Wonkette Visits Free Republic So We Don't Have To
And they post the wingnuts' reactions to the passing of Obama's grandma.

http://wonkette.com/404084/mccain-palin-wingnuts-mourn-obamas-granny

At least America’s fringe-right conservatives will show a bit of those family values we hear so much about when, say, the Democratic presidential nominee’s ailing grandmother dies, at age 87, right? Right? Oh, sorry, what were we thinking. Happy black president’s day eve, wingnuts.

From, obviously, the Free Republic website:

* They should do an ice test to see how long she’s been in the freezer.
* Better pull her absentee ‘cuz she was dead on Election Day.
* I think that “event” took place 2 weeks ago. Otherwise it would have made great political news for these last 48 hours to talk about Obama’s grandma and take the focus off of his exposed coal comments.
* Seriously, has anyone actually seen this woman in recent years? If Obama has some of his thugs guarding her (and if there is, indeed, a body) I hope they do an autopsy to make sure Granny’s passing was a natural event.

LOTS MORE CREEPINESS AT THE LINK

2. damn - and, I thought DU was bad when some prominent Republicans died
that's absolutely disgusting.

I didn't donate to DU for 3 quarters once because I was upset that about DUers gloating over death. But, this is worse than that.

5. exactly.
This is what bothers me by the "both sides are the same" thing - yes, there are similarities, and both sides have their faults, but the freepers are so much more vile than anything I have ever seen here. It's like comparing Olberman to Limbaugh - yes, both are biased, but Rush is a racist hateful ass.

4. wonkette didn't post the worst- hell even the average- posts on that thread
the majority of freepers flat out accused Obama of murdering his beloved grandmother.

6. The stuff on Topix is even worse
It's supposed to be a board for everyone but somehow it's been turned into another Stormfront.

9. There may very well be some who don't act like morans, but Wonkette is only
paying attention to the asshat contingent.
