Stop saying Freepers are racists!
From a thread on Sarah Palin's new show:

"Piper puts the President’s daughters to shame.

She is all American, not street gang thug spawn"

Yeah what's so racist about that?

:grr:

2. She is calling who a street gang thug?
That sounds pretty histrionic to me.

3. Hey, now. Barbara and Jenna did have their run-ins with the law,
but they were hardly street gang thug spawn. They were blue-blooded thug spawn.

8. Seems so; that's the implication when I've heard it used (and I'm in Maricopa County, AZ)
and even the politicos have taken to using the word. When they do, it's clearly a code.

5. Freeperland is a "White Power" message board
so that kind of logic is expected and normal over there.

7. She's All-American! Not one of "those uppity people!"
Yep, exactly what you would expect from a fan of that idiots show.

I can't believe that this moron actually has a following politically. Christ, I would think if I was a hard core right wing corporatist, I would actually want someone who didn't make me look like an idiot representing me.

12. "All American" = white
Alaska is full of "real Americans" (mostly white.) Interestingly it also gets TONS of Fed subsidies but when you're white it's not a "welfare state" or a "handout..."

10. Bigots would be the proper term, I think.
Their prejudice is not limited to race.
