Summer of Heat

by | 139 Comments

This post is in: , , ,

So, it’s the end of July, and the tomatoes are starting to come out, so you know what that means! Time for the wingnuts to foment racial unrest. I have no idea why they are always at their worst in the summer, and I think it’s because all these crackers are miserable from the Alabama heat and humidity. Even with their rebel flag bandannas and watering holes, these guys get mad pissed at the coloreds every summer.

At any rate, since Fox News and Limbaugh rule our world, here is what my local teabilly nutjob had up on his redneck twitter feed today:

rednecktwitter

Yeah, Obama is the racist. Because again, black people are the real racists. Just ask Chris Rock. On the other hand, I gotta say, at least this redneck neo-confederate puke has the balls to own up to it. Compare that to this ticker from Jake Tapper’s recent show with one of the best Cavuto marks in a long time:

racistinchief

I confronted him, and told him he should probably talk to his staff, and his response was priceless:

Well, I guess that makes sense. If some crazy person said something somewhere, damned straight we should ignore what Obama really said and then have a “great” conversation.

Let’s try this out for size. I know some of you have accused Jake of any number of things, the least of which is the hubris on display here. Suppose I convened a panel to discuss the state of journalism, and spent an hour discussing Tapper’s career? Even though we had a productive discussion and agreed by today’s standards, he’s not that bad (and he wrote a pretty damned good book), I checked my comments section (and I think even the nuttiest of you is more sane than anyone who appears on Fox) and you had asked a sincere question. So I had my staff throw it out there. Is it responsible to speculate? I would be irresponsible not to. Soo, using his journalistic standards, I wonder what Jake would think of this ticker?

tapper copy

I mean, I’m just repeating what someone else said and asking for a response. For the conversation.

There is as much reason for me to ask that question as there is for an alleged news team with an anchor with an iq over room temperature. Just like there is no reason for me to think or even ask if Jake Tapper is an anal-raping pedophile, there is no reason for anyone who read or saw Obama’s speech to question him about race-baiting. And no matter how “serious” or “great” the discussion may have been, there is no excuse for this.

Unless you’re just a total dickhead interested in ratings and making sure your Fox News portfolio is solid.

    Heh. Before I even saw this

    @ Johngcole I asked the panel about a quote from a Fox News pundit.

    I was thinking this is just one more example of how the SCLM takes its talking points from FoxNews.

    and I’ll repost what I put below when somebody brought up the Cole/Tapper twitter spat
    Slate is also trolling for hits with a Cavuto mark about Obama’s speech “stoking or calming racial tensions?”, though the actual article doesn’t seem to take that line. Interesting that the Village, which couldn’t see racism in birtherism, teleprompterism, release-your-transcipts, foreign, apologize, learn to be an American, welfare president, foodstamp president, and can’t see it in voter suppression laws even as several state-level Republicans have come right out and said it’s race-based, now worries about Obama stoking racial tensions. In fact, CNN just hired the guy who coined “foodstamp president”. So, yeah, fuck Jake Tapper and all who sail with him.

    Well, now that we’ve established that it’s “out there” and, as I can see above “some people say” that Mr. TAPper is an anal raping pedophile we can then move the discussion to everyone that has any sort of relationship with Mr. TAPper must, of course, condone, engage in, and deeply participate in Mr. TAPper’s favorite past time of anal raping young children.

    I think it’s important that we discuss the narrative around Jake Tapper possibly or possibly not being an anal-raping pedophile. Let’s discuss when this might or might not have started. Should we look into Jake Tapper’s childhood? Has he ever encountered any anal-raping pedophiles? How could we know? Is it important that we know?

    Kay

    His team rocks:

    TAPPER: Kevin, there’s also been rampant on the president’s remarks online. FOX News radio host Todd Starnes just called the president race baiter in chief on Facebook. Quote, “He actually said the outcome might have been different if Trayvon had been white. Folks, we have reached the very dangerous point in this nation when the president of the United States begins to question the judicial system.”

    This is some of the pushback that we knew would happen. I’ve seen other remarks such as the first African-American president comes forward and says racism still exists, even though obviously he has been elected twice. I know it’s to be expected.

    But do you think any of the criticism is fair?

    MADDEN: Well, look, in order to look at this politically, you have to look at it very clinically. And I think we do have to ask the question. Does this president or is he passed the point of having a very positive when it comes to conversations that are very difficult like this, because he came in and his public profile was very much one that was supposed to be a uniter. But as we’ve seen with issues like this and others, he has actually sort of generated the worst of both right and left, and he’s become a very polarizing figure.

    So, he — I think, he sometimes — a lot of people say, and this I think is the genesis of a lot of that criticism right now, is not the best person to bring people together and have a conversation, because he actually drives people apart.

    TAPPER: Not because of his race, because he’s a partisan Democrat.

    MADDEN: Correct.

    @gogol’s wife:

    LOL. For some reason I can’t really explain I find it highly complimentary I come across as a guy – maybe because I have no compunction about calling Jake Tapper an alleged anal raping pedophile. Jake Tapper, the alleged anal raping pedophile, should have to defend himself against the characterization of him as an anal raping pedophile, since the Beltway Villagers have no problem characterizing President Obama as the race baiter in chief. When Jake Tapper, the alleged anal raping pedophile understands what it means to be (maybe) unfairly characterized as an anal raping pedophile, maybe he’ll be able to influence the FAIL main stream media he participates in to stop mischaracterizing President Obama, using the Cavuto mark, as a race baiter, because (maybe) he will appreciate the unfairness of being characterized as (maybe) an anal raping pedophile.

    @Jim, Foolish Literalist:

    Well, look, in order to look at this politically, you have to look at it very clinically.

    Well, look, in order to decide this issue of whether or not Jake Tapper is an anal-raping pedophile, we’re going to have to look at it very clinically. Very. Clinically.

    I know this has been a fun thread and all, but I find pedophilia to be one of the least funny topics on earth. Goat fucking frog licker? Sure, go for it. But pedophilia is not so funny.

    This right here is the conversation America has put off for too long. Once the questions regarding Jake Tapper’s possible tendencies as an anal raping pedophile are answered, then, just maybe, we can move forward as a nation.

    Jake Tapper is a White House correspondent for CNN and hosts a cable news show for them. He’s not some schmuck out mowing his lawn.

    @Redshirt: Hard to disagree with this. It feels dirty just typing it. Personally, I thought the baby turtle twist was a huge improvement, but then, I immediately felt bad for the turtles. It’s a no win.

    Very late to this party but I am here to reassure you all that Jake Tapper is not a anal-raping pedophile. He is just a garden variety shitheel. Move along now.

    Huh, I always assumed Tapper was a licensed Analrapist. I had no idea he was doing it illegally. Will have to alert the academy.

    There is no hell hot enough to properly deal with the likes of Tapper.

    more real journalism being done on a junior high mimeograph handout than with Tapper and his crowd. They want to discuss racism in context, feel free to look at our prison and legal system, voter suppression and income disparities. Instead its all about fee fees and projectionism and a bunch of “well said!’s” and “heh indeed”… These fuckers can’t get off their ass and do any “real” journalism because they’re no page clicks in it nor do their producers care about illustrating any of the real problems that face our society today and strangely enough, that’s one of the real problems facing our society today.

    Hey, come on, you guys Jake Tapper has never been an anal-raping pedophile; but he’s a dishonest hack who takes his ideas from wingnut radio hosts no one ever heard off. Okay, maybe Jake Tapper was an anal-raping pedophile in his youth. I don’t know that,< and I am not going to speculate.

    @piratedan:
    My first response is that maybe we could shame them. After I picked myself off the floor after I fell down laughing at myself, I realized that they have no shame, none, nada, zip, zero, and in fact may be in negative territory in the shame department. So whatever is the opposite of shame, they have plenty of that.

    I realize this may be in the running somewhere, but it hardly rises to stupidest. Way deeper into stupid we have BOB, timmy, T&H and any number of other regular trolls, not to mention any number of single issue trolls like Chet. They have all reached down deep to try and raise stupid to an art form.

    @Ruckus:

    Quite right, viewing Teh Stoopid in a larger, holistic and universal sense.

    However, from the admittedly tiny perspective of one who has spent their entire dreary professional life amongst legal definitions of various kinds — that someone with sufficient functioning neurons to type words on a keyboard, could simultaneously possess the belief that Jake Tapper is not a “public figure”…..well, it’s just its own kind of mind-blowing.

    @eemom:
    Maybe there is a better description than stupid. Dumb of course is supposed to be someone who lacks the ability to put together the ideas in the first place, not someone who can’t believe the salient facts/details when they are right in their face. A new/other word perhaps, which describes someone who refuses to understand facts. Conservative, maybe?

    Are we sure that Jake Tapper is an anal-raping pedophile? It could be that Jake Tapper is an angel-raping pedophile. Since we’re speculating.

    Yes, I know. I felt it he would be more insulted by being called “some schmuck out mowing his lawn”, than an anal-raping pedophile who sucks salted goat dicks by the bagful. . .

    Sorry I’m so late to the conversation, but…

    Joe Scarborough AND Glenn Beck killed women in the Eighties? Some people are asking “Does Fox only hire murderers and anal-raping pedophiles?” The question is out there.

    It's Not The Fall, It's The Landing

    When I did a search on “Jake Tapper is an anal-raping pedophile,” it brought me here, where I discovered a lot of comments speculating about whether or not Jake Tapper is an anal-raping pedophile, but no definitive confirmation as to whether or not Jake Tapper is an anal-raping pedophile.

    However, now that people are discussing whether or not Jake Tapper is an anal-raping pedophile, I think it’s only fair that we have a detailed and public examination of any evidence that Jake Tapper is an anal-raping pedophile. So, anyone who has evidence that Jake Tapper is an anal-raping pedophile should post it here, where we’re having a frank and candid discussion as to whether or not Jake Tapper is an anal-raping pedophile.

    I’ve also heard a rumor that Jake Tapper is a coprophage. Anybody know anything about that?

    Sigh. Seriously disappointed to have been late to this thread, and unable to point out in a timely fashion, in reference to cheese-molestation, that fromage-frigger Jake Tapper’s fraternity at Dartmouth was, in fact, known as the Cheese House, or the Cheese Lodge, and the bright red baseball caps with Greek letters they wore were known as Cheese Sirens.

    True fact.

    There was a great documentary “Outfoxed”, came out during the Great Documentary Boom of the mid 2000’s (inspired by Michael Moore’s successes). They strung together a whole bunch of Cavuto Marks in one segment, it was hilarious.

    @MoeLarryAndJesus:

    He’s an anal-raping necrophile.

    Poor Helen Thomas.

    Too soon! Too soon!

    But perhaps not for Jake Tapper, who always has a meat thermometer in his anal-raping pocket…

    @The Dangerman: If Jake Tapper was an anal-raping necrophile, I wouldn’t think he could handle the late, great Helen Thomas. Now, if he was an anal-raping pedophile, I would guess Mrs. Thomas would be a bit old for him.

    Just my opinion…

    @Citizen_X: Theoretically, if Jake Tapper was an anal-raping necrophiliac, he might have murdered her to satisfy his sick, twisted fanatasies. Some would say…
