"Obigot"

[cali]

that seems to be the new hillfan meme. It's no better than hillwhore or hillbitch. those using it appear to be the racists and they sure shouldn't complain about anything they see here re hill.

[Danger Mouse]

1. there are people using that? that's disgusting.

:puke:

[olkaz]

2. /signed

It's just factually untrue.

And honestly, we should be above that sort of thing.

(Maybe it could work in other forums, I don't know.)

[ellacott]

3. I've seen that a few times on this board, pretty sad

The namcalling is so juvenile.

[tishaLA]

4. It's a disgusting new low

I alerted when it first appeared but none of the offending posts were deleted...

[City Lights]

9. Interesting.

Thanks for pointing that out.

5. I've never seen it used until you just said it just now.

Do you care to provide a link showing this, Obigot?

6. Well I've only seen about 3 HRC folks use it

Those three have been particularly nasty from the beginning. Very angry that HRC stole the nomination from herself.

18. I haven't seen it, and it is unfair to call him that.

his spiritual mentor for twenty years...not so much.

7. You're complaining about childish name-calling?

Ironic.

[cali]

14. hilly is not the same thing as

Obigot. sad you can't see that.

[MonkeyFunk]

23. You take it upon yourself

to be the arbiter of what is offensive or over the line. That's just silly.

If someone without the penchant for using childish names started this thread, I'd K&R it. But since it's you, I just laugh at it.

[roguevalley]

27. Actually, Hilly is a diminutive of Hillary that often is used by folks. I

find it sweet and pretty. Obigot? Offensive, racist and stupid.

[LowerManhattanite]

10. Perhaps the board's most nakedly anti-Black poster...

...is the first I saw using that little moniker.

Same guy who spat out drivel about Obama starting a “race war” and “White devils” and such.

Desperation...sad and simple. :(

[whatchamacallit]

12. Yeah I saw that one. It's too nonsensical to be insulting.

:crazy:

[sniffa]

15. kick

and r.

[shadowknows69]

17. Yep yep, methinks they doth protest too much

[mrreowwr_kittty]

19. I guess I've got all the offenders on ignore because I haven't seen it.

It disgusts me that so-called "progressives" are promoting a RW meme. :puke:

[Greyskye]

20. I've seen it a number of times this morning

The new Google search of DU is quite handy for tracking such things down, if anyone is curious about who the primary offenders are...

And here is where one poster announced to the world his embracing of this term: http://upload.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x5192581#5193316

22. Reaaaally. Hmm.

[thevoiceofreason]

24. 5th rec - There you go!

[Froward69]

25. I just fielded no less than

5 calls in quick succession about how
its not that he is black...
not that he is a Muslim...
not that he started using race...
not that he disenfranchised mich and fla...

but if hillary is not the nom they are voting mcain't...

tap dancing around bigotry, and voting their fears...

goddamn I am beginning to feel shame to be American.

26. OBAMANATION
