Macaca rises again: 'Americans are not addicted to oil. Americans are addicted to freedom'

Jack Layton said it best.

It was a question to Stephen Harper during a session of the Canadian Parliament but it's true over here too.


My America includes LGBT families.

Obama Waffle info links to FOX

Bob DeMoss founded a division for Thomas Nelson, a religious publisher which freemarket.org describes as "the nation's first Christian conglomerate, with interests in television, music, book and magazine publishing, home shopping and radio." Previously, he worked for Focus on the Family. He writes books with Tim LaHaye. [Note: FRC is a division of Focus on the Family]. Whitlock also worked for Focus on the Family, as well as Thomas Nelson. These days, though, Whitlock works for Fox. Fox Faith, yet (if you get a password screen, just hit cancel). Yep, one of the minds which brought you Obama waffles is teaching our children about God for Rupert Murdoch.

It appears, though, that the two of them have some other corporate friends.

This confused me. How on earth did they get permission to use the name of a family retailer? At least as far as donations go, Books-a-Million (there above the bugeyed picture of the candidate's wife with grey streaks in her hair) doesn't appear to be a particularly political organization (they also don't appear to be selling the waffle mix online).

One of the board members, though, is a bit more active. Terry Anderson, a member of the family which owns 51% of Books-a-Million, Inc. stock, is also the President and Chief Executive Officer of American Promotional Events, Inc., which imports and sells fireworks. American Promotional Events retains the services of a lobbying firm which also represents Diebold, Ms. Whitman's eBay, and Senator McCain's beloved Northrup Grumman. The trade association for the fireworks industry is even more committed to communicating with Washington. Over seven of the past eight years, they've retained BKSH, the firm of that nice Mr. Black of Senator McCain's campaign, and Public Strategies, a group founded by that nice Mr. McKinnon of Senator McCain's and both of George W. Bush's campaigns.

You remember, the one who left because he didn't want to be part of nasty politics against Senator Obama.

I am, I should prophylactically say, entirely sure that this is all a remarkable coincidence.

Senator McCain would never indulge in disgusting racist tactics, or tolerate them from his supporters.

After all, Senator McCain is an honorable man.

And so are they all, honorable men.

Just, you know, saying.

Lou Dobbs and racist Obama waffles story keeps building

Speaking of right-wing extremists: CNN's Lou Dobbs stopped by the booth and laughed, "My wife will love this!" A photo shows Dobbs with a box of the racist waffle mix in his hand but was scrubbed from the Obama Waffles website after Think Progress reported the story.

CNN when will you MAN UP and confront Dobbs, huh Cafferty?
I'm angry Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow haven't jumped up Dobb's a$$ with cleats on. Especially since Dobbs said "Olbemann was hanging by a MEDICATED THREAD."

Dobb's wikipedia mentions the Obama waffles....HA!

"In September 2008, Dobbs spoke at the Family Research Council's annual Values Voters Forum, and was seen buying a box of "Obama Waffles," a box of waffle mix featuring a caricature of Barack Obama with large eyes and thick lips. The Politico took a screenshot of Dobbs buying the mix from a blog run by the makers of "Obama Waffles."[38]

I think he has a point (on this at least)

America isn't addicted to oil, it can stop any time it wants to.

It just doesn't want to...

What he is describing is

Libertinism, a Right wing set of self indulgent, reckless, fiscally and environmentally promiscuous behaviours without any regard for consequences or for others...
...just like the Right is always accusing the LGBT community of doing....
