Insanely funny stuff from Scholars&Rogues...

This:

http://www.scholarsandrogues.com/2008/09/17/lady-die-de-rothschild-elitism-and-the-final-episode-of-punkd/#more-4090

especially this line:

"Sweet fancy ballroom dancing Jesus - is this the Supreme High Queen of the Mystical Land of Douchebagistan or what? Let’s review her pedigree résumé, shall we?"...

This is an article about how Lynn Forester de Rothschild, a former Hillary Clinton supporter has apparently thrown the Democrats and specifically Barack Obama under the bus.

A Rothschild (even if she is only one by marriage) calling Obama elitist? Oh, please. Stop. I'm laughing so hard my sides are hurting. I'm only surprised that she didn't also call him "uppity". More on that below. Oh and by the way, Lynn -- "kettle".

I'm going to take a WAG (wild ass guess) on this one and say that ultimately her disapproval of Obama is -- wait for it -- deeply seated and thinly veiled unspoken racism. There. I said it. We've already seen not one but two, count 'em, TWO southern Republican politicians brand Obama as (quoting) "uppity". Yes. That's a well known and highly charged code word when it issues from the lips of a racist and I think most of us know what the REST of that commonly used phrase is EXACTLY. It's ugly, it's backwards thinking and it is 100% WRONG. This is the 21st century, people. Not only is it time for us to move on from the 20th century, it is WELL PAST TIME for us to move WAY BEYOND the 1850s.

I am now predicting that we're going to see much more type of ugliness as we get closer to election day and a frantic amount of veiled racism directed towards Barack Obama as the ship of the McCain-Palin ticket sinks on the iceberg of their own clueless stupidity.
