A Cleveland man wore a t-shirt to Glenn Beck's rally on Saturday with the slogan "Protect White Cracker Babies."
First, some context. A member of the New Black Panther Party was captured on video as he stood outside a polling place in Philadelphia on election day 2008 with a nightstick. The Bush Justice Department filed a civil case against the man, another New Black Panther Party member and the national party with voter intimidation. Once Obama took office, the Justice Department decided there wasn't enough evidence to merit the case against the other Black Panther and the national party, but obtained an injunction against the man carrying the nightstick. The conservative-dominated Civil Rights Commission is now investigating and has asked Congress to give it permission to sue DOJ.
Before the incident took place, National Geographic had shot a documentary on the New Black Panther Party which included footage of Samir Shabazz -- the man holding the nightstick -- using extreme rhetoric at an event on South Street in Philadelphia. "You're gonna have to kill a cracker. You're gonna have to kill some of their babies."

I suppose the loons thinks this is taken out of context, or better yet, edited.

Meet The Black Panther Leader Who wants to KILL CRACKER BABIES
Unreal! I think Beck is on the right track in that we are being called to return to God as a nation....and judging from several comments....some people are not getting the message.
Ah yes, I say a goodly number of the kollege kidz’ camera krewes out in force interviewing attendees. I only wonder how many youngsters get their Sociology Masters nowadays by doing street interviews with us “bitter clingers” for their snappy multi-media thesis presentations (I guess that’s what you do when you’re not bold enough to film your own porno for class). Several may have been there for public TV and Dan Rather’s cable venture. I wanted to simply ask them but knowing how they would make it look on YouTube (”Angry Tea Bagger Harasses Camera Crew”) I decided otherwise.
There were a handful of Lefty banner-wavers off to the side. They got some attention but it didn’t harsh the vibe. I noticed that they had their own film crew as well. Provide your own footage and try to shop it to News Channel 7, I guess.
Al and the Gang never showed. Judging from CSPAN and the other local media coverage, the speeches did not even end and the marchers depart the Dunbar High School field UNTIL 1:00pm when Beck wound up. I seriously doubt anyone of the people who showed up for Al actually hoofed the entire distance to the Lincoln Memorial.
EXCELLENT!
I take him at his word...
Good one.
Don’t forget the Ritz and Oyster Cracker babies.
My head hurts.
“I don’t understand these people”
I do. They follow strick groupthink behavior to a tee as developed by Irving Janis, Yale Psych professor.
I spun them into commandments...
I
Thou shalt create an illusion of invulnerability shared by most members to foster excessive optimism and encourage extreme risks taking
II
Thou shall not allow any member to question the group’s inherent morality, instead members shall be encouraged to ignore the ethical or moral consequences of their decisions
III
Thou shalt promote collective efforts to rationalize in order to discount warnings, or other information that might lead members to reconsider their assumptions before they recommit themselves to their assumptions
IV
Thou shalt reinforce stereotyped views of enemy leaders as too evil to warrant genuine attempts to negotiate, or as too weak and stupid to counter whatever risky attempts are made to defeat their purpose
V
Thou shalt self-censor any deviation from the apparent group consensus, inclining each member to minimize the importance of their doubts and counterarguments
VI
Thou shalt create and maintain a shared illusion of unanimity concerning judgement conforming to the majority view
VII
Thou shalt apply direct pressure on any member who expresses strong arguments against any of the group’s stereotypes, illusions, or commitments, making clear that this type of dissent is contrary to what is expected of all loyal members
VIII
Thou shalt appoint mindguards to protect the group from adverse information that might shatter their shared complacency about the effectiveness and morality of their decisions.
This guy should have exercised some discretion and chosen a different shirt.
TPM is in business to make the Right look bad.

i thought about posting a reply on utube....but libtards would not understand the gravity of their situation,no point warning them about us 49+ year old vets(millions)that are rather handy with certain tools,let it be a surprise,thanks.
Damned straight! I have a 2 grandkids to worry about. (My 4 year old grandson would say he is a “big boy, but he is still grandma’s baby).
It ain’t easy being a white cracker from Ga.
Forgot to add:
The word cracker means nothing to me. Being from the south I have been assumed to be racist for so long, being called a cracker (ie poor white) is no biggy. It is a word.
The longer Obama stays in office, the crispier this cracker becomes.
No, he said "You gonna have to kill some of they babies"
Give the proper context of racism and ignorance.
That “culture” only gets in yo face when they sense they have more power than the people they are trying to push around. Beleive me, THEIR life is important to THEM.
Funny.
