Muchas gracias . It would not be the holidays without the standard Klan snowman story .

Has the daily quota of evil-Jesus-loving-white-people stories been met?
Can we just assume white people without a view of Central Park are dumb racist?
Any chance of you writing about a non Caucasian…a non evil Jesus lover….. doing stupid racist bigoted things?

Fact: Maybe he’s proud of his yard and it maybe a lawn jockey?

Man Builds Racist Snowman.

Conservatives are pissed…. at people for reporting the story?

OK I’ll bite.

“Is this like a tea-bagger rally in Palin’s Alaska?”

Isn’t that why you hacks on this site posts shit stories like this???

Who didn’t see that coming! The TKK have been showing their true “colors” or lack there of, for months.

The fact you’re so outraged about this being “liberal reporters bashing conservatives”…. is that you saying that white racists are strictly Republicans?

I’m surprised you’d say that.

What was the purpose of this shit story??
I’m disappointed with Tommy.
His “Make-over” apparently didn’t take. He is still playing the libel “White Guilt” card!
…and he is back to pulling his pants up over his belly button…..say no to moose knuckle Tommy …please!!!

idiots.

‘
Clarification please,,
Is Eliseuson a very very rural?
I’m not sure,,
but I don’t believe there are too many very very urbans living up there

“But his latest approach to gettign the wrong type of attention might be the most passive aggressive racist ploy ever. ”

But Mediaite isn’t taking any chances… they’ll headline it…

That’s in horribly bad taste , and yet I laughed and then felt guilty.

People are over reacting. If a guy wants to create a display that says , “Hey world , I’m a gigantic racist asshole” then let him. It’s his yard.

Predictable

You have to remember the shrill defenses and the absurd denials of racism at Tea Party rallies. Then, consider this story and the comment. It is an important reflection on the racism which permeates the right. Not all rightists are racists, to be sure, but all rightists are willing to embrace racists to further their ideological crusade, all the while denouncing racism with the mighty and abiding fervor of an Episcopal Evangelist, a shopper Parks cities shopper at a Neiman Marcus sale or a teenager putting on a clip on tie before he begins his shift at the Multi Cinema. I actually think the entire thing is silly, but apparently it is stinging our radical rightist posters. For that, I emit a hearty chuckle.

Right…and with your logical Democrats tacitly champion Stalinists, the Weathermen, welfare frauds, divorce, and choosing to abort a baby rather than not aborting it.

I understand that you’re The Lying King, but must you also relentlessly turn every board you occupy into the political equivalent the Jersey Shore?

You said it.

The KING is here . This snowman is obviously inspired by Fox ” News ” and Sarah Palin . Hearing no denouncement Tweets , one can only conclude Ms. Palin drew up the plans for this snowman and transmitted them to these Klan supporters .

The KING of bore is a wordie fluck!
I wish he keep posts under 1000 words.
I need a nap after reading his blathering.

Not a Brothers Karamazov type of guy? That’s kühl. I like Grisham, a fire, a glass of Merlot, maybe some smoked almonds.

Do you throw papers on the floor at work and leer at a young male intern as he picks them up??
Do you angry tweet from the bath tub each night?
Do you have any pictures of Jeter in a towel at his locker??

It’s free expression on his private property – stupid and ignorant, but free expression non-the-less. Just like the kid in Hollywood that had a mannequin of Palin with a noose around its neck. Free expression.

this is NOT considered hate speech?

in lieu of being a hate crime i mean

Atticus Draco said:

There is no such thing as “hate speech,” at least not in the US Constitution. There is only free speech. I don’t like it but I’d like it even less if government tried to say what you can and can’t say.

No. We have no interns, male or female.

No. I don’t tweet. It’s coarse.

No. I am a Yankee’s phan, however.

Now, I have a question for you.

Do you think the notion of the “passage” from Pure Being to Absolute Idea has a time-centric component to it? In other words, is it in any sense a chronological passage or progression? And, if it is not, is there any progression at all? Absent time, is passage meaningful? Are we simply dealing with a co-existence, perhaps finite in time, or are we facing an essential unity which is fragmented only because the very wholeness is incomprehensible, indeed repugnant, by and to all save the Absolute Idea itself? If so, do we need to re-examine our notion of time as an finite characteristic? If it were possible for us to conceptualize in infinite terms, might this all be clearer to us? Might co-existence be less daunting? But, time is a reality, and by its very nature time as chronos cannot be denied. If we seek an infinite conceptual model, have we not only committed a blasphemy, but also divorced ourselves from our own essential being.

As I was thinking of the KKK snowman and its relationship to the Tree Girl Palin, this came to mind. I will confess, I have no answer.

It’s not a crime to express yourself on your own property.

well there does exist hate crimes right?
and i’m not saying that’s constitutional,, but it does exists right?

‘
and ,, if i were to walk up on this nut job’s property
and knock his stupid structure down
could i be charged?

Hate crimes, which I don’t agree with, are different than “hate Speech.” Hate Crimes, which might or might not violate the “equal protection clause” do exist.

You might be charged with trespassing.

He should have named it Robert Byrd. Then the snowman could be forgiven.

@More Liberty
I wonder why Helen is been bashed for expressing herself on the other thread if we have freedom to express ourselves?

By the way it’s ICE. It’s bound to melt.

Distasteful, racist…

I’ll bet Idaho is just happy to be in the national news.

This guy, Mark Eliseuson, is a lot like the Mediaite writers…write or do something outrageous and hope someone on the national scene finds out and publishes it.

We all know how “Colby, Tommy and the gang” likes to get noticed by Rush or Hannity.

If only Sarah Palin would Tweet about them….that would be the icing on the cake.

Maybe it’s a tribute to Robert Byrd?

What kind of blather is this?

“Absent time, is passage meaningful?” No, given your context; Time is an infinite reality but we can’t conceptualize its infinity. The snowman will melt, in Time.

Why does everything said such as “very very urban” and every image such as this snowman above have to be connoted, that it is racist comment or racist image implied?

When I first saw the image I immediately thought of the Coneheads from SNL, and thought it was funny!

Fact: Dude that build the snowman also huge fan of Palin’s Alaska, conservative, watches Fox News, and is a teabagger.

Prove me wrong.

You can’t.

I find this “artistic” expression no more offensive than depictions of ants eating Jesus or crucifixes in glasses of urinej. One thing for sure–the guy built this snowman WITHOUT subsidies from taxpayers.

Had the snowman in question been erected on the lawn of a negro home, THAT would have been inexcusable.
