1. I can't wait to hang it?

wtf?

[Aviation Pro]

2. The more chilling moment....

...was when the audience did the wink and nod chuckle at the comment.

3. WTF? We're listening for the hang it part?

That's sick and wrong in so many ways... How is that funny, even if it is not meant to be racist???

[tinanator]

5. Its funny if youre Bush or a crony and you know you will get away with it

A win win if you are a cheat cheat.
It is par for the course where he continually tells jokes this way. Not the first time he said something absolutely abominable in a way that seemed accidental. He isnt that stupid, just THAT evil.

[sonicx]

6. the audience laughed nerviously. i don't think they really found it funny.

[tinanator]

7. not to my ears

my ears hear an amused press corp composed of happy sycophants. I have heard plenty of nervous laughter during Bush gaffes. that was very hearty in comparison. Not even the point really. Watch his face and pay attention to his delivery. Its all there before your disbelieving eyes and ears. Where is the anti-Bush pro-Kerry bloggers when you need them to spread the truth? This has been far to dark a chapter in our ordeal. There shouldnt be ONE pro-Bush black family in America that doesnt disrespect MLK jr.

4. he said

we welcome Bernice and Martin Luther King Junior the third.


King struggled EVERY DAY of his life to make a difference in the world. Bush gets a free pass to the best universities in the country, where others only could wish they could attend, and he wastes his time there.

He makes me ill.

8. kick me

thanks I needed that

[Vickers]

9. I'm usually a fan of jokes that poke fun at something, but that is fucked

Unreal.

I had seen this before, but it still freaks me out. I'll say it again, if you are:

- black
- smart
- gay
- a veteran
- a woman
- a recovering alcoholic or drug abuser
- a book reader
- bi- or multi-lingual
- a pilot
- a financial conservative
or
- poor

and you are voting for Bush* then you are an idiot.

[sherilocks]

10. The bumps and bruises on *'s nose

What fall was that from?

[tinanator]

11. god knows i am

kick for the lurking freeper trolls who think their racist intent is masked by colin clarence and condi.

[noiretextatique]

12. he's a crass, vulgar idiot

no class, no manners...and of course, no brains. i remember this comment, and i wasn't surprised at all that he made it.

[AlCzervik]

13. "I can't wait to hang it"

[Cronus Protagonist]

14. A picture is woth a thousand words...

15. "Wants some wood?"

"Can't wait to hang it."

This is the same kind of double entendre I picked up on during the debate.

But if you point out the insidiousness of this racist remark, the Freepers will turn around and accuse US of racism because they will try to fall back on the surface meaning of such a remark.

Welcome to the modern world folks, where bigots hide their racism just under the surface, but its insidious nature still effects on us all....

16. dang him dang him
