It’s official

A growing spittle-flecked swath of Hillary’s supporters on the innertubes are pretty much virtually indistinguishable from wingnuts:

Goodness. I just thought of something.

If Obama had gotten away with this, he would have had Wright, and Farrakhan as guests at the White House. How disgusting is that? And who knows who else??

If you want proof this person is a Clinton supporter, take a look at their TPM comment history.  I especially enjoyed the comment where they quoted and linked to the discredited Newsmax article (that’s right, Democrats linking to fucking Newsmax) about Obama attending one of Wright’s infamous sermons.

And, believe me, this is one of the milder, wingnut-like comments you see from Hillshills around the web these days. Take a gander at this string of comments at Philly.com:

Don’t waste your time. His words are just lies. He’s a hypocrit and his campaign is a fraud. Support Clinton.

Unbelieveable! Were a white candidate found to be involved with a pro-white, anti-black church, the NAACP and various other groups would take to the streets to protest that they step down. Instead, we get to listen to some innane drivel about how Senator Obama had no idea that he was part of a Black Supremacist movement and we all should overlook the issue. The hypocrisy apparently knows no limits....

Yes, Tammie!! As my sister says...get the testosterone out of the White House. Hillary got a rousing welcome here Friday night, I was there and it was great. Saturday was the St Patrick’s day parade where she was cheered for the whole mile. Keep going Hillary! We’ve got your back.

I included j9zig1’s comment not because it’s shocking or offensive in and of itself, but because j9zig1 didn’t blink an eye ("Yes, Tammie!!") at Tammie’s obviously racist “purple lips” comment and cut right to the shameless bonding. I’m seeing vile stuff like this being spewed everywhere by Hillshills and it’s not pretty.

Obama’s speech is going down at 10:15am today (MSNBC is definitely airing it) and it won’t be just the most important speech of his career, but it could potentially be one of the most important speeches uttered during a presidential campaign ever.  I hope he nails it and drives all of these freshly-exposed knuckledraggers back into their dank ‘n’ hateful little holes.

MORE: Check out the comments at this post at Taylor Marsh’s House of Horrors where TM’s minions are hugging Sean Hannity so hard that Marsh has to tumble in and gurgle out her opposition to Hannity to save face.  The fully quoted anti-Obama article from the rightwing Human Events site at the bottom of the thread puts the icing on this rancid cake.

Me too. I’m generally pessimistic about human nature and am usually unsurprised when people reveal themselves to be the creeps I half suspected they were all along.

But I’ll admit the levels of shameless racism and abject stupidity this nomination fight has revealed in the Democratic party shock me. If these creeps high-tail it to the Republican party when Obama takes the nomination, good riddance. It’s where they belong anyway.

I think Marsh may be worrying about being eaten alive by her rabid commenters, honestly.
