Is this a RACIST joke?

Posted on 06/24/2009 6:31:21 AM PDT by 2harddrive

The following joke was posted on Yahoo yesterday:

Q: Why is Obama going to let the North Korean missile hit Hawaii? A: Because then he can say that THEY destroyed his Birth Certificate! LOL.

Upon posting, comments were made that this was a racist effing joke, that the poster was a racist mother-effer, and that he should get the eff off Yahoo.

I saw no racial component to the joke at all, and it was WAY funnier than David Letterman's about Sarah Palin's daughter. What do YOU all think?

Anything that casts doubt upon the Obamessiah is racist. Didn’t you figure that out by now?

You need to “thin-up” your skin some more, dude.

It is not racist, but it is blasphemy against the Obamessiah. You should be banned for life and must beg for mercy not to be beheaded. Shame on you. There is nothing funny about the Obamessiah.

Absolutely it is! It is anti missile. It is implying that missiles are all destructive by nature. We should embrace and understand missiles. They are only destructive by nuture and not nature.

It is NOT racist!

Those that tell you otherwise are using the 'racist' mantle against anything said against their god.

All criticism of Obama and jokes about him are racist. This includes criticism of his disastrous agenda.

I believe it’s considered racist now to walk past the White House and not genuflect.

I suspect that many people have no idea what “racism/racist” means. They just know it’s something bad (and they usually spell it “rascist”, I’ve noticed). They also have no idea what “hypocrite” means-they think it just means “narrow minded”, and I see it used in that sense all the time. That’s just on blogs, message boards and the like-what’s really distressing is the way I see words misused because of what the author *thinks* they mean, and the editors are no better educated and hence don’t catch the errors-which are then published in magazines, newspapers, books...Like the woman writer who thought “noisome” meant ‘loud, noisy’, and another writer who thought “swarthy” meant fat, and...

If you question Obama, you’re a racist.
If you speak out against Obama, you’re a racist.
If you oppose Obama, you’re a racist.
If you don’t like Obama, you’re a racist.

With the Dems, it always leads back to his race. According to them, Obama is immune from criticism because he’s black.

I have seen comment after comment by liberals, saying that white people are evil and must be destroyed, etc, etc, etc. They’re trying to make it into a “white vs. Obama” thing, which it’s NOT at all!

Will they ever get it through their thick heads that we don’t oppose Obama because of his race????

I think it’s Hell-Funny! And I intend to use it tonite.

And like all Hell-Funny jokes, it’s bound to offend some people: good. Those are the people we intend to laugh at. What’s the point of a Hell-Funny joke if you can’t laugh at someone?

Only *Barney Jokes don’t have a target: somebody who gets laughed at. That’s why they aren’t Hell-Funny, by definition.

(*Barney == Barney-the-Purple-Dinosaur, or “he-who-offends-nobody”)

   Upon posting, comments were made that this was a racist effing joke

  Unless the joke was delivered by a tap dancing black man pretending to be drunk while dressed as an tomahawk wielding Indian, I see no way that this joke could in any way be perceived as racist.

Criticism = racism.

It’s straight out of the libtard playbook to marginalize critics of Zero and his policies.

Just call it ‘another day at the orifice’.
