Off The Damn Rails

Created: March 31st, 2008 | Written By: Kyle E. Moore

As crazy as politics have gotten lately, I don’t often get the chance to use our “Fucktardary” tag, but No Quarter blogger Larry Johnson allows me to pull it off the shelf, dust it off, and give it a whirl.

I was speechless when I first read it, and I’m still speechless. Just to give you an idea of what we’re talking about here, LJ not only gets the rapper turned actor from Law & Order wrong, but he ends this fiasco of a blog post by likening Hillary Clinton to, wait for it… Eminem.

Yeah, and it might be a little racist, too.

Luckily, you don’t have to give NQ more traffic to read it; just go here instead. Go. Read. Laugh. Cry.

And let me know what you think.

That is the most vile, disgusting post from a supposedly liberal blogger that I can remember seeing since I started reading blogs. What a racist piece of garbage.

I think it’s a huuuuuge stretch for him to compare Hillary Clinton to Eminem.

I can see where he’s going with it, and I don’t think he’s being intentionally racist, just trying to make a point. It’s a flawed and fairly stupid point, but I don’t believe he’s acting on a deep-seated racism here, but rather trying to make a racial analysis without really comprehending what he’s talking about.

Call it “racism by omission,” then - an omission of a real understanding of the situation.

Yeah, that’s kinda how I saw it. Not really really racist, not like, “Ima killyu darkie,” kinda racist, but it was an eensy bit racist with a whole lotta “Gee I really have no clue what the fuck I’m talking about” thrown in that really does sound kinda racist.

I think, really, the biggest thing in here that could be considered racist was the implication that Obama MUST listen to rap, because, you know, he’s black. Which, if memory serves, Obama’s not a big rap fan.
