The Klan is alive and well in New Hampsire, passing out lit @ Rudy events
Edited on Tue Jan-08-08 09:23 PM by FogerRox
Last Friday I went to New Hampshire with a couple of friends. We got up there in time to crash a Rudy rally and then a Romney rally, Saturday we saw Obama and then Bill Clinton, Sunday we saw Hillary and Edwards, it was freaking great. Our Hotel was where all the McCain and Ron Paul folks were staying, thats right, we ended up in the heart of enemy territory, Sunday I watched the 1st half of the Steelers game with TOm Ridge, former Homeland Security Secretary, yeah... the guy who called a terror alert in the middle of the 2004 democratic convention.

In the evenings the press and staffers were at the Hotel bar, I talked Rep. Chris Shays from Conn, Senator Lindsey Graham. I met the Wonkette, Maureen Dowd, Repub pollster Frank Luntz.

But back to the Rudy event.



A College student asked a health care question and by the end of Rudy's answer, he made it about 9-11, the Rudys sentences were disjointed and convoluted. Basically what one would expect from a batshit crazy Mofo. ANyway, we took some pics, and left early, The crown was thin, about 80 people in a room that could hold 150, and the was only one TV camera.

So my friends and I are walking back to the truck, and my pal Barry, Du'er "The Wizard" picks a flyer off a cars windshield. Barry says out loud, "holy shit, the negro problem", is this the Klan ?



I was walking ahead of Barry, and saw a flyer on the next car, so I grabbed it. OMG, he was right.

Now I need to tell you all a story, In 1963, my Dad was writing a math book (Dad is a PHd'ed college professor). My Dad had taken an advance and now the publisher was wanting its book. So My Mom and I went down to New Orleans for the summer, while Dad finished the book. In NOLA my Mom bought a little 125cc Vepsa motor scooter. Long story short, end of summer we drive back to Long Island NY. In Georgia, stopping for lunch at a small but busy Luncheonette, we ended up walking in the wrong side. The Black side. This was the era of separate but equal. I'll never forget it.

These fuckers are batshit crazy, its 2007, not 1963, its New Hampshire, not the deep south. But never the less the Klan and its minions are alive and well. And dropping lit on windshields in New Hampshire.

That's got to be so weird to see. He must be one of those little known freaks with a few thousand bucks to make a pest of himself. :puke:

What a great experience it was for you to see the candidates. I wish everyone got that kind of access.

This is a surprise why? People who don't live in the South are still human and are still descended from people who lived in small competing tribes, right?

8. Skinheads and Nazi's are all over the country.
Pockets of them in every state.

I found a website once dedicated to tracking them and they even had an
interactive map of exactly where they're located and not one state was spared. :(

26. Yes...awareness is key
My anger was directed at the writers of the pamphlet, not you for posting it.

I honestly don't understand all the hate. Why can't we judge people, as Martin Luther King said, not by the color of their skin but the content of their character? :-(

27. Some blogger says it's copyrighted by Randall Terry, but doesn't say how they knew that.
Edited on Tue Jan-08-08 09:33 PM by LoZoccolo
At the car there was a strange Pro-Life flyer from a mythical Smith 2008 candidate who has a “Negro Problem”. It is copyrighted by Randall Terry. I’ll scan it in later.


http://nozell.com/blog/2008/01/04/rudy-giuliani-nashua-elks-club

Until I see some evidence, though, I don't think we know who did it.

Personally I think it's fake and part of a dirty tricks campaign or something, because the full name of the candidate doesn't even appear on the brochure; how are people supposed to know who to write in? On the other hand, if this is a dirty tricks campaign, I can't quite see what they are trying to do with it.

31. Honored to be the 5th nominee - Awesome story. Mr. Smith???
I don't recall any Smith running. I know one went to Washington. You thunk they misspelled Obama??

I'm a political junky as yourself and it looks like you hit politico nirvana. I would have loved to meet some of these folks - even though most are repugs. Did you say anything to Ridge (like - go fuck yourself) or the rest of them? Any autographs?

Edited on Tue Jan-08-08 09:42 PM by LoZoccolo
It turns out that the brochure is from Randall Terry, but the Smith 2008 campaign is a fiction, something like street theater, to get people to not vote for 9iu11ani because of his position on abortion. It compares voting for a pro-choice candidate to voting for a pro-slavery candidate. You've omitted the panels where this is revealed.

A link to the entire brochure is here:
