The runner-up, Jim Thompson, the owner of the right wing website Free Republic, which has moderated comments, meaning a grown up is supposed to read them and delete the crazier ones. But Thompson‘s folks waited as long as three days removing a comment thread devoted to the racist rage of a disturbing large number of his posters, possibly some of the same people who had previously conducted polls on the site on how best to topple the freely elected government of the United States.
After President Obama‘s daughter appeared in a t-shirt with a peace sign on it at the G-8, a thread at the Free Republic was opened with another photo of the first lady, captioned “to entertain her daughter, Michelle Obama loves to make monkey sounds.”
Some of the posts describe the Obamas, individually and collectively, as, quote, “typical street whore,” “bunch of ghetto thugs,” ghetto street trash,” “dirt bags,” “wonder when she‘ll get her first abortion,” “they make me sick, the whole family, mammy, pappy, the free loading mammy-in-law, the misguided children, and especially little cousin.”
No indication of how many of the racist attacks on Malia Obama were made by people who simultaneously were threatening anybody who even mentioned Sarah Palin‘s children. The most prominent response at Free Republic was not an apology, but rather the claim the comments were planted. This was, in turn greeted, by more racist comments by veterans of the site, and a call to action to flood the e-mail accounts of a list of the main stream media people, people like Don Imus of MSNBC, the “CBS Evening News” with Dan Rather, and Paula Zahn and Bill Hemmer and Tucker Carlson and Robert Novak of CNN.
Let me know if Dan Rather still answers his CBS e-mails, clowns.

English auto racer, James Thompson. Obviously he's also a European agent.
I couldn’t help it. LOL I saw the screen shot in the video and I just had to post what it says! LOL
Wonder if getting Jim’s name wrong is a cover. Olbermann possible reads and post here every nite. tic
ok that took a lot, I’ve had that one for yrs...with an address alteration! LOL !!!
Let me introduce myself. I use the screen name Blackhawk here on your web forum. I joined back in the early days, oh 10 years ago since last Thursday. I remember fondly the former owner of the FreeRepublic forum. Jim Robinson, you see I remember cause we have the same last name. Also I met him once at the Dinner honoring the House Managers in Washington D.C. He is a great guy and I didn't hear that he had turned it all over to you. Well I trusted JimRob, so I guess I'll have to trust in his judgment that you can carry on the great work he started. I'm sure that JimRob would give you much better advise than I, but I wouldn't give those Kos people or the More Ons over at MoveOn or the DummieFunnies a second thought. It is amazing that they seem to be such “experts” about racism and bigotry. I guess if you are a racist bigot, then it becomes second nature to see those traits in others. Misery love company and all that.
Anyway, say hi to JimRob if you see him and tell him we, (my wife and I), pray for him constantly. And good luck in your new position.

Quick refresher, Senator George Allen called a dark skinned blogger videotaping one of his speeches the racial epithet Macaca. To tie Allen on the racial slur level, the judge would have had to call somebody, like say Limbaugh, whitey. Worse than that, Ofay (ph). As in hey, Limbaugh, yes you, you Ofay, you. Limbaugh says your frequent. There you go.
