Liberalism Inoculates Hillary Against Racism Charge

January 8, 2004

On Saturday, Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY) made a racist joke that the great advocate of non-violent revolution Mahatma Gandhi "ran a gas station down in St. Louis for a couple of years." No member of the media reported the slur, and no one in attendance expressed outrage. The story finally appeared two full days later, headlined her apology and included the line:

"After being approached by the Associated Press to clarify the remarks, Clinton suggested in a statement..." Can you imagine anyone in the press "approaching" Trent Lott and asking him to "clarify" his remark on Strom Thurmond, or sitting on the story for two days patiently waiting for him to issue a statement spinning it? Yet not one media outlet in print, radio or TV ran the sound bite - which we have for you in the audio link below - when it happened.

Hillary didn't even need to apologize. She bought a pass with a single, half-hearted "clarification" that Lott couldn't buy with a hundred mea culpas on BET. At the time, Mrs. Clinton said of Lott: "If anyone thinks that one person stepping down from a leadership position cleanses the Republican Party of their constant exploitation of race, then I think you're naïve." You see, because Republicans are all racist, folks. Any Republican you name is more racist than her just by virtue of their party.

Mrs. Clinton is a liberal, as Hillary spinmeister Howard Wolfson said on MSNBC's Scarborough Country, so she can get away with mocking minority groups all she wants. Wolfson made the baseless claim that Mrs. Clinton had "fought for civil rights all her life," and treated the idea that anyone liberal could be racist as the lunatic ravings of hate-filled Republicans who hate all minorities, anyway. Thus, the woman who suggested that this martyr for peace was no more than a gas station attendant gets off scot-free.

Listen to Rush...

(...make her racist quip about Gandhi, and yet pay no price for it in the media)

YEAH, ANOTHER FREE RIDE FOR THE SWEET MOST ADMIRED WOMAN WHO USED SUCH TERMS AS F***ING J*W B@$T@^D AND THE "N" WORD!
MARGARET THATCHER SHE'LL NEVER BE.

(Mr. Garrison)
I heard there is no Christmas,
In the silly Middle East.
No trees, no snow, no Santa Claus.
They have different religious beliefs.

They believe in Muhammad,
And not in our holiday,
and so every December,
I go to the Middle East and say...

Hey there, mister Muslim!
Merry F'n Christmas!
Put down that book the Koran,
and here's some holiday wishes..
In case you haven't noticed,
It's Jesus' birthday.
So get off your heathen Muslim ass,
And f'n celebrate.

There is no holiday season,
In India, I've heard.
They don't hang up their stockings,
And that is just absurd.

They never read a Christmas story.
They don't know what Rudolph is about.
And that is why every December,
I'll go to India and shout...

Hey there, mister Hinduist!
Merry F'n Christmas!
Drink eggnog and eat some beef,
And pass it to the missus..
*Hindu music*
In case you haven't noticed,
It's Jesus' birthday.
So get off your heathen Hindu ass,
And f'n celebrate.

Now I've heard that in Japan,
Everyone just lives in sin.
They pray to several gods,
And put needles in their skin.

On December 25th,
All they do is eat a cake.
And that is why I go to Japan,
And walk around and say...

HEY THERE, mister Shintoist!
Merry F'n Christmas!
God is gonna kick your ass,
You infidelic pagan scum!
*Japanese music*
In case you haven't noticed,
There's festive things to do.
So let's all rejoice for Jesus,
Merry F'n Christmas, ta you.

On Christmas Day..
I travel around the world and say..
Daoists, Christians, Buddists,
and all you Atheists, too!
Merry F'n Christma-aaaaas,
To yooo-oouuu!

*small clapping sound*

Thank you, Mr. Hat.

[ConservativeMan55]

I think Hillary should step down as Senator.

Ohh...I forgot..she relishes power.

Hillary could give two S*** about the American people.

A better title for this article should read,

Media Inoculates Liberals and Hillary Against Racism Charges.

Here is one quote from that thread:

Texas Media Watch documented another egregious example of journalistic corruption in columnist Jan Jarboe Russell’s sucking up to Democrat state senator Leticia Van De Putte. The putative state senator accused Republicans (without naming anyone) of saying to her, “If you are going to act like Mexicans, you are going to be treated like Mexicans.” This was after Van De Putte had led Democrat senators in a flight into New Mexico in an attempt to block redistricting by the Texas Legislature. Van De Putte was pretty much proven to have lied.

What we need is a ballsy Republican to make the exact same joke in a similar setting and gauge the reaction. (BTW, Hillary's audience roared with laughter) Then again, even the liberal journalists might be able to piece together that hypocrisy, and let it go.

[phugg]

I have to agree with tallhappy. I don't see racism in her joke. Is it the part about running a gas station or living in St. Louis that makes it wrong?

Her comment is equal to the Rush comment about the QB.

I have never been a big Rush fan. I do like to listen to Dennis Prager during my lunch hour though. He has a Happiness Hour on fridays that is always enjoyable.

[E.G.C.]

Bump in support of Rush!!!!!!

[ConservativeMan55]

This is an excellent idea. I am sure we could find somebody.

[George Smiley]

It's just another case of "Thou Shalt Not Speak Ill Of The Queen."

[Carolinamom]

Hillary's effort at "joking" is just another example of her many failures. She's drunk w/her "celebrity" and incredibly UNfunny. What's really funny imo is listening to the media haul out their litany of her "accomplishments" to excuse or justify giving her a pass on this FAILURE to display even a modicum of humor.

[ConservativeMan55]

BTTT!!!

[ConservativeMan55]

This is true. And if anybody does call her on her lies..she will proclaim that they are "beating up on a woman."
