I'm gonna use some really bad language here...

so you moderators better check it before it goes out.

Warning issued!

My post is about this story

http://thinkprogress.org/2008/02/20/bush-outside-forces-tend-to-divide-people-up/

It's been floated around a lot on the internets but I still haven't read anyone who cuts to the chase and calls this spade what it is.

Our racist-in-chief just lectured us on how...

"A clear lesson I learned in the museum was that outside forces that tend to divide people up inside their country are unbelievably counterproductive."

WHY is this only applicable to human beings in Africa but not the Middle East?

An "outside force" occupies Iraq today.

And here I'm gonna jump the shark...

Are the "outside forces" in Iraq today exempt from our dear leader's revelation? Do they not "tend to divide people up inside their country."?

Why would that be?

Is it because the humans in the Sudan are just black niggers?

But the humans in Irag are just brown niggers?

Oh, and the brown niggers in Iraq (and Iran) are existing on top of vast oil and natural gas reserves?

But, the (very dark) humans in Sudan.... eh, not so much.

We won't go into Africa.

But we'll stay in Iraq for a thousand years.

We won't be "dividing them up" because they are not black enough for that to matter.

I know I've just offended many of you here. But I am so damn tired of the naked racism that dominates the political discourse in this once proud nation and that our "elected" leader just espoused clearly and directly.

And if you do not think this is merely setting the stage for a Barack Obama candidacy this year...

well, just wait.

I will gladly vote for Mr. Obama.

Hell, how much would I have LOVED to see President Jackson!

But the explicit racism has just been firmly put in place by the present leader of the free world.

What do you think?

1. He has obviously never heard of the CIA

because it took him this long to learn the lesson:

"A clear lesson I learned in the museum was that outside forces that tend to divide people up inside their country are unbelievably counterproductive."

2. Hypocrisy in action.

The Republicans wrote the book on being hypocrites. The truth is, everything only applies to *OTHERS*. They are not held to their own standards, only "outsiders" are.

"Outsiders" include:

Democrats
People with skin that's not white
Poor people
Sick people
Liberals
etc.

3. I learned a long time ago how to translate Bushism:

"A clear lesson I learned in the museum was that outside forces that tend to divide people up inside their country are unbelievably counterproductive"

really means:

"I don't see a reason to get involved right now. If all the people there die, that just saves me time later if I decide to invade."

5. The only thing...

I can find that Bill Clinton ever publicly regretted about his Presideny was his misreading of the situation in Rawanda. He basiacally apologized for that. George W. Bush just clearly stated that Rawanda can happen over and over again and he does not care. None of the white folks' business, thank you.

I am... well, I wish I was frankly sedated like Rush Limbaugh. But I'm not. This makes me ashamed. Michelle got it right.

4. I'm not offended and I thank you for this post.

I won't be as diplomatic as you, though, when I say this: The man is such an asshole.

6. Seems to me like those...

outside forces that have been dividing people up have done the same thing here. It's worked so well in South/Central America and the Middle-east, but I wonder if they learned it first here?
