Saw this one coming

I've been predicting a Google/Apple/anti-trust showdown for years now. Actually I don't feel especially smart about it because it seems obvious. Here it comes.

I agree with Jimmy

To quote Jimmy Carter on CNN, Jimmy says;

"I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he's African-American," Carter told NBC News. "I live in the South, and I've seen the South come a long way, and I've seen the rest of the country that shares the South's attitude toward minority groups at that time, particularly African-Americans."

"That racism inclination still exists, and I think it's bubbled up to the surface because of belief among many white people -- not just in the South but around the country -- that African-Americans are not qualified to lead this great country. It's an abominable circumstance, and it grieves me and concerns me very deeply," Carter said.

Without coming across as a left leaning socialist, I totally agree with Jimmy maybe for he first time in my life. Seems like there's an undercurrent of racism that can't be legitimately expressed outright so it's been re-channeled into this gun toting lunacy.


For the record, I'm a right leaning fiscally conservative type minus the guns and bibles so the thing that really freaks me out is that these wingnuts didn't get their panties in a bunch when George Bush gave the banks 700B and ran up monster deficits for the past 8 years like a drunken schoolgirl with her first credit card.

I guess the difference is that GWB spent most of the money on rich people and wars.

These teabaggers are nuts





What the fuck is wrong with these crazy Americans? It's really hard to believe that these people are real. How did such a loony group get taken seriously? Being a Canadian it's really hard to understand how the US mainstream media takes this group seriously and it's equally shocking to see how indifferent most middle of the road Americans are to these teabag quacks. You've got people protesting with AK47s, claiming their president is a socialist Nazi who's going to set up death camps to round up old people and finance abortions by seizing rich rural peoples assets. What the fuck???? They're serious too and even worse they really believe that pres Obama is going to put an end to freedom as they know it.
