Conservatives Show Their True Colors?

Posted on July 11, 2009 at 11:56 pm

From the Vancover Sun:

“A typical street whore.” “A bunch of ghetto thugs.” “Ghetto street trash.” “Wonder when she will get her first abortion.”

These are a small selection of some of the racially-charged comments posted to the conservative ‘Free Republic’ blog Thursday, aimed at U.S. President Barack Obama’s 11-year-old daughter Malia after she was photographed wearing a t-shirt with a peace sign on the front.

The thread was accompanied by a photo of Michelle Obama speaking to Malia that featured the caption, “To entertain her daughter, Michelle Obama loves to make monkey sounds.”

    Well geez, it’s not like they did something truly awful like make an absurdist joke about Bristol Palin during a comedy routine.

    and the story was written by a guy who advocates putting hate speech on right-leaning sites in order to cast them in a bad light.

    How convenient.

    Hmm does the city paper control what is said on it’s blog.

    Remember not only conservitives or Republicans post on the Free Republic Blog.

    That is what happened to the Tennessean forums, liberals logged on as conservitves and posted trash like this.

    Damn, you caught us, this is all just a liberal conspiracy to make all conservatives look bad. Wizard, care to link to something where they have actual proof? The link you’ve dropped is two deep before you even get to the allegation, and then their support for the claim is this:

    .. Now, don’t get me wrong, it’s a sorta dumb thing to post, but I don’t see how that’s an example of “advocating putting hate speech on right leaning sites.” And the internet is full of people doing dumb (sometimes racist) shit, liberals and conservatives both.
