Fluffy Bunnies: Harmless?

Politics | Sun, Oct 5, 2008 at 4:02:13 pm PDT

The Associated Press seems to sense, in some dim way, that they may have gone a little over the line with that ludicrous “analysis” by Douglass Daniel that tries to accuse Sarah Palin of racism for mentioning Barack Obama’s association with former Weather Underground terrorist William Ayers.

In the latest revision, they’ve changed the headline from “Analysis: Palin’s words carry racial tinge” to: Analysis: Palin’s words may backfire on McCain.

Maybe not as much as this nasty bias will backfire on the Associated Press.

But the story also includes this unbelievably crass statement from “Democratic strategist” Jenny Backus:

“It’s a giant changing of the subject,” said Jenny Backus, a Democratic strategist. “The problem is the messenger. If you want to start throwing fire bombs, you don’t send out the fluffy bunny to do it. I think people don’t take Sarah Palin seriously.”

In an article about Sarah Palin’s subtle subtext of racism, this very unsubtle sexist slur against the Governor of Alaska goes unremarked, reported straight, as if it were a simple observation, nothing more. These people are completely beyond shame, both the Democrats who say these things and the Associated Press who enables them.

But remember, not all fluffy bunnies are as harmless as they seem.

What pisses me off is the msm coming out and saying any criticism of 0bama is racist. Now granted- racism isn't cool, it's evil, but criticism based on facts is not racist.

What bothers me is they are not applying their so-called logic equally- it's not being called sexist to criticize Palin. And even when we do see sexist comments about Palin, the msm is silent.

That tells me that the msm thinks sexism is okay- a perfectly legitimate political weapon. They make me sick.

I said this at the end of the earlier AP thread.

I live in St. Louis. This is a racially divided town. What AP is doing is no joke, and they have no idea (or maybe they do) of the gasoline they're putting on race relations. If there are race riots when Obama loses (and I still hope that he will), the blood and property of innocent people of all races will be on the AP's hands. You simply can't say, day after day, that anyone who doesn't vote for the One is a racist and thenfeign shock when there's riots when he loses.

My white-hot contempt for the mainstream media knows no bounds.

It's OK when the person to whom it is applied is not their candidate of choice.

That statement is worse that just plain "sexist". It is completely dismissive of Palin and her accomplishments, as indicated when he followed the "fluffy bunny" statement by, "I think people don’t take Sarah Palin seriously.”

This is a woman who is currently one of only fifty state Governors in this country. A governor who had a record high approval rating by the citizens of that state.

When you are one among a group of fifty in a country as big and populous as ours, then people are indeed taking you seriously.

It's beyond my comprehension how people who believe they are serious, credible people can look themselves in the mirror each morning when they have such incredible bias, and apparently, to hear them talk about themselves, no clue that the bias is there.

Once again, Palin is trashed with terminology that would cause a media outcry if it were applied to a liberal, female democrat.

They appear to hate Palin, a) because she's a conservative, and b) because she's attractive...really attractive...so attractive that for the first time ever, I've had to fight the urge to mentally undress a VP candidate. Can one still be a Republican and feel such a thing for someone in the executive branch?

I believe the left covets Palin...they'd kill for a left-wing female with the communication skills and ability to connect with the electorate the way Palin can...but they have to make due with Hillary. But, since Palin is on the other side of the aisle, she must be mocked and destroyed (a la the Alinsky method).

My respect for Palin grows daily as she guts this out and gives it back to them with a wink and a smile.

Damn...more non-Republican thoughts now...

"Run away! Run away!" That's what we need to hear the Obama/Biden team screaming by the end of the month.

My advice to the McCain/Palin team: Ratchet up the speeches and commercials re Obama's pals. Swift Boating, they say? Since when did the term "Swift Boat" become negative? Since the leftist loons started referring to it as negative. And their buddies, the press, started following suit. It's time McCain/Palin started saying, "Yes, we're Swift Boating you. We're telling the truth about you. How do you like it?"

re: #72 asshander

Community organizer sound more like racist bully/thug every day.

The following was posted on Friday with regard to the "Alpha/Omega" Obama Jugend video. It applies, however, to your community organizer comment:

Leaving Obama himself aside for a moment, the fact that a paramilitary drill of this sort is going on in a publicly-funded school should itself give one pause. That it has attached itself to Obama as the object of its adulation is only secondary.

It is clear for anyone that has eyes to see that permitting a separatist culture to fester in the inner cities in the wake of the successes of the Civil Rights Movement has created a very dangerous social situation which has ugly implications for the country at large.

Quasi-religious Marxist rituals like Kwanzaa, disguised as "community celebrations," are merely the happy face of this situation. Underneath, or behind them, there is a separatist ideology which has been building racism even as the larger society has been working to tear it down. The result is a society which has laid itself open, in an overt effort of good will, to the advancement of, and depredations by, people who have grown up in and with an ideology hostile to the larger society's very existence.

This would be bad enough were it merely a problem in the black community. But the efforts by leftist academics to make this hostility not merely respectable, but paramount, has laid low society's defenses against this sort of onslaught--which is now adopted also by the "immigrant-rights" organizations, exacerbated by the open borders, and by the Islamists among us also.

The problem is, liberal women think the selection of Palin is offensive, either because McCain thinks this will get their votes (I maintain this is not the only reason Palin was chosen), or because her election would not benefit them (again, I don't see how), or because she doesn't stand for them (never mind her positions on Title IX, equal pay, etc.).

The problem is, liberal women think the selection of Palin is offensive, either because McCain thinks this will get their votes (I maintain this is not the only reason Palin was chosen), or because her election would not benefit them (again, I don't see how), or because she doesn't stand for them (never mind her positions on Title IX, equal pay, etc.).

It's comments like this that I think are awakening women to the hypocrisy of the left. Trust me on this- because I became a conservative when I woke up to the hypocrisy of the feminist movement.

The more they talk like this, the more women slip through their fingers.

Many "fluffy bunnies" who serve our country took part in today's coed ARMY 10 Miler that started next to the 9/11 Memorial (where the Al Qaeda attack on the Pentagon landed).

Awesome women serve our country, no matter how democrats or liberals hate these women who sign up, serve & wear our countries uniforms & weapons.

Worms like Bill Ayers the terrorist stomped on our flag on 9/11's New York Times, and attacked our Pentagon "back in the day," while living off trust funds and hustling for grants to undermine our students' love of country.

With Obama supported by such scum, why is this race even close, America?

What pisses me off is the msm coming out and saying any criticism of 0bama is racist. Now granted- racism isn't cool, it's evil, but criticism based on facts is not racist.

I think it's as bad to falsely accuse someone of being racist. It's like the new McCarthyism.

However, it's to the point where the term is almost meaningless, it's so over used.

On women and Obama: yes, yes, fluffy bunny, sweetie, etc., but one of his favorite attacks a week or so ago was that McCain didn't support equal pay for women. He used that statistic of 77 cents to the dollar. Now, I hate those statistics, because they're from the aggregate, not equal work for equal pay. But someone - I cannot find the link - did a study of Obama and McCain's Senate staff, and found Obama's female staffers make 83 cents to the dollar for male staffers. McCain? His female staffers make $1.04 for every dollar a man makes.

In large part, this is because McCain has more female senior staffers than Obama, about 60% of his top staffers. It really does disturb me how little of a role women play in the Obama campaign.

Quasi-religious Marxist rituals like Kwanzaa, disguised as "community celebrations," are merely the happy face of this situation. Underneath, or behind them, there is a separatist ideology which has been building racism even as the larger society has been working to tear it down. The result is a society which has laid itself open, in an overt effort of good will, to the advancement of, and depredations by, people who have grown up in and with an ideology hostile to the larger society's very existence.

I asked a Nigerian co-worker what Kwanzaa was all about and got a blank.

If Sarah keeps tossing out these "racist" questions about Obama's associates, will the media just stop covering her rallies? Or will they just edit out any references to the associates?

She has two in Florida tomorrow.

Gotta watch them Playboy Bunnies, they can be a bit on the dangerous side.

Actually what Carter encountered was the species known as the swamp rabbit, which is known as an efficient swimmer. It is also referred to as the cane cutter rabbit and is significantly larger than the cottontail.
Ha, if Jimmy Carter was a true southern man he would have known this, and whacked it in the head and devoured its carcass for supper.

This is the type of bunny that I envision Sarah Palin to be.

"Forbidden link", so I get the picture. ;)

Or, I actually didn't "get" the picture, if you get the picture. ;)

This cult of personality with B-HO is simply bizarre. last week, we had the perfectly mixed racial group of kiddies singing the praises of Dear Leader Obama. Now, we have a bunch of obviously well-fed inner city kids, stomping their para-military pride for Dear Leader Obama.

The Lefties are going to go completely apeshit the night of the election when they lose by twenty points. They are scared to death of Palin. They are scared to death of being wrong and proven that way by 180 million of the US electorate.

November is going to be the LA riots, multiplied times a hundred, because the Lefties have no sense of grace to lose with any dignity. They'll scream and riot and shit their collective drawers like a hundred three-year-olds on a sugar high!

Committed leftists and socialists (not "liberals", which is a used-up term) are typically OK with misogyny as long as it is applied to a woman who does not fit into one of their protected classes AND/OR a woman who actually holds any level of non-socialist non-leftist ideals.
