Little Green Footballs is populated with Freeper Rejects.

And it's sitting on the shelf right next to the Whitey Tape.

Why so sad, subby?

Turn your frown upside down.

Don't worry, be happy.

Cheer up with Cheerios.

Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.

Also attending were Evil Lincoln, Carrot Top and Alex Rodriguez's gay lover. When will America wake up?!

Oh, for crying the fark out loud.

"Radical Islamist"? The guy is a FARKING RESPECTED PROFESSOR AT COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY YOU FARKING IGNORANT TOOLS.

I bet a crack squad of covert republican operatives, possibly led by submitter, could sneak into the facilities and get a copy of that tape.

That would be the big moment that would turn this whole race around and guarantee a win for McCain.

For good measure they can lightly scratch crescents on their faces and claim that they were done by radical Islamists guarding the LA Times offices.

Old news is so exciting!

This was published April 10, 2008.

But LGF's blog entry has finally convinced me that Obama was involved with the Weatherman and should pay for his crimes.

You know, McCain has a buddy who'd be excellent at a mission like that!

Well, he is a Muslim, and Muslim = radical Islamist = terrorist.

I feel like I should contact the times to let them know that this is about to hit the main page of Fark. Maybe turn on that other mail server...

Yeah. Fortunately it's a Sunday story and it's posting at 2AM so the carnage will be mitigated.

If it's so hard to find that 'balance' you're hoping to attain on the Politics page that greenlighting dreck like this is the only way to achieve it, perhaps you'd ought to rethink the concept. It seems the only way a large majority of conservative points can be made on Fark are through disingenuous headlines or blatant trolling. It becomes a rather tired routine.

 
Silvara [TotalFark] 2008-10-26 01:18:27 AM  
Uhm, wasn't it already pretty well known that Obama attended this party and spoke at it? How is this huge news and some sort of conspiracy to hide it?

It's not. But look at the calendar and look at the polls. It's garbage time.

Well, when you create an artificial measure of balance, you have to take liberties with quality, good taste and the truth in order to enforce it. If I say 2+2=5, that does *not* mean that the actual value of 2+2 lies "somewhere in the middle". It's still just 4.

Don't blame conservatism. The garbage you see here is crazed cheerleading, ideological demagogy of the lowest order. Real conservatives get ill, or violent, or violently ill when they see this drek and how it splatters on them by association.

It's too bad that we use the white hot light of day to illuminate them only long enough to induce an argument, and not long enough to truly expose, ridicule, and sterilize their idiocy. Bring back public shaming plz, kthx.

I don't think that the white-hot light of day would be sufficient to sterilize their idiocy. I'm pretty sure we'd need some heavy-duty ionizing radiation. Perhaps a combination of high-gamma and cosmic-ray strength alpha particles.

This is not news; this article is months old. Also, this man is not a radical Islamist. That is actually a very slanderous characterization. He is a respected American historian and professor who is of Palestinian origin, which does not make him an "islamist". He is the director of the centre for Middle East studies at Columbia University. Like most Palestinians, he is concerned about the fate of his people.

I fail to see the objection, except for rampant racism that criticizes Obama for having any acquaintances who are Muslims.

Anyone who buys into this s*$t should be ashamed.

Ok, catching up on this, it seems as if this is all conspiracy stuff. No hard evidence, just heresay, innuendo, and slander. Perfect for the LGF crowd. They used to love me over there back in the day...now I'm just a libtard among libtards.

I was just going to use a road flare and three burly men to hold them down, but your idea has merit.

Nooooo! They used to rip on me a lot over there. I guess it was people from here who also posted there. This is back in the pre-2004 days. You know, back in the day.

Yup. Dr. Khalidi is quite a mainstream Middle East historian who also heads the Journal of Palestine Studies. His works is valuable for those who seek to understand Arab nationalism and colonialist interventions. His books have won numerous history awards:

The Iron Cage: The Story of the Palestinian Struggle for Statehood, Beacon Press, 2006.

Resurrecting Empire: Western Footprints and America's Perilous Path in the Middle East, Beacon Press, 2004.

Palestinian Identity: The Construction of Modern National Consciousness, Columbia University Press, 1997.

The Origins of Arab Nationalism (Co-editor), Columbia University Press, 1991.

Under Siege: PLO Decision-making during the 1982 War. Columbia University Press, 1986.

Palestine and the Gulf (Co-editor), Institute for Palestine Studies, 1982.

British Policy towards Syria and Palestine, 1906-1914. Ithaca Press for St. Antony's College, 1980.

Ooooh. OK...I get it. I've seen some dramatic shifts on Fark, but that (misinterpreted) statement blew my mind.

You'd need that solar furnace over in the Geek Tab to sterilize some of the idiocy we've seen recently.

Fortunately for Obama he'll likely have the power to suppress and subvert all questions about his background and motivations soon enough.

And his own history shows that he will do so.

It must suck to be you right about now. And I don't mean that in a derogatory way. We've all been on the losing side and it sucks. Hang in there. It will change again in the years to come.
