OUCH! The Milwaukee-Journal reports:

State elections officials Wednesday narrowly rejected a Milwaukee Assembly candidate’s attempt to run with the slogan “NOT the ‘whiteman’s bitch’ ” under her name on the ballot.

Ieshuh Griffin, an independent candidate with a history of feuds with local officials, said in response she would sue the state Government Accountability Board for infringing on her freedom of speech. She is running to replace retiring Rep. Annette “Polly” Williams (D-Milwaukee).

“I’m not making a derogatory statement toward an ethnic group. I’m stating what I’m not,” Griffin told board members. “It’s my constitutional right to freedom of speech.”

What’s your take – racist, on the ballot, unconstitutional, put it on flyer’s not the ballot?

The picture in the upper right hand corner is an antique – these are seen in salt and pepper shakers, cookie jars and other pieces of pottery. Collectible yes. Racist? You decide.

From Volokh Conspiracy:

As best I can tell, the relevant statute provides simply that, “Along with the names of the independent candidates shall appear the party or principle of the candidates, if any, in 5 words or less, as shown on their nomination papers”; I don’t know what statute or regulation gives the board authority to restrict the contents of those 5 words, and under what standards. I would be inclined to say that a viewpoint-neutral rule prohibiting vulgarities or epithets might well be constitutional, since the ballot is a state-created limited public forum.

I say it doesn’t belong on a ballot but advertising or other campaign commercials and materials may include the “slogan.” It’s freedom of speech, indeed!

Michelle Obama is full of hate for America and she has been demonstrating that at her recent “Tea Party” this week.

The Conservative tea party’s don’t want to pit anybody against anybody. If the truth be known, tea party people, white people in this country — the vast, vast majority of them — are sick of this. They don’t want all this acrimony and they don’t think it’s warranted anymore. The past is the past, and nobody can deny it, but it’s not warranted anymore.

You listen to Ben Jealous of the NAALCP, and you would think that the Klan is still running the show. With a black man in the White House, the Klan’s still running the country — and the Klan was all Democrats! Most people in this country want a unified country built on the concepts of American exceptionalism. It’s not complicated at all but what makes it complicated is that certain black people have been raised and educated to think they have no chance in that America, which is contradicted by evidence.

The United States did not invent slavery. The United States invented freedom. Somebody name a country on earth that ever fought a civil war to make men equal. What other country on the face of the earth has so many laws against discrimination?

Michelle Obama at the NAALCP this week complained about crumbling schools, complained about dessert, praised the founders, not of the country, the founders of the NAALCP. She urged even greater intensity on the part of African-Americans. I’m sure many of you are shocked to hear this because many of you expected the country to be at the end of racism, and bigotry, discrimination, with the election of our first black president. We were supposed to be postracial and postpartisan. But now we got the New Black Panthers talking about killing cracker babies, not being condemned by anybody in the media or at any level of the Obama regime. Michelle Obama at the NAALCP doing the keynote address was urging greater intensity.

“When so many of our children still attend crumbling schools, and a black child is still far more likely to go to prison than a white child, I think the founders of this organization would agree that our work is not yet done. (applause) When African-American communities are still hit harder than just about anywhere by this economic downturn and so many families are just barely scraping by, I think the founders would tell us that now is not the time to rest on our laurels,” said Mrs. Obama.

The birth of the NAALCP, founders of the NAALCP were white. Mary White Ovington, journalist William English Walling and Henry Moskowitz met in New York City January 1909 in what is credited to be the original meeting that led to the founding of the NAACP. They were all white, and they were all socialists. It wasn’t until later that W.E.B. DuBois from Harvard and others were brought in. Even so, the majority of the founders of the NAACP, later to become the NAALCP, were white.

“When stubborn inequalities still persist in education and health, in income and wealth, I think those founders would urge us to increase our intensity and to increase our discipline and our focus and keep fighting for a better future for our children and our grandchildren,” Mrs. Obama continued.

Even Harry Reid (D-NV) has chimed in:

“‘I Wish Obama were More Confrontational with the GOP — [He] told the Las Vegas Sun’s Jon Ralston Friday that there have been times in the past year and a half when he wished President Obama were more confrontational with Republicans. ‘I think that he is on many occasions — I shouldn’t say on many occasions, on a few occasions — I think he should have been more firm with those on the other side of the aisle,’ said Reid. ‘He is a person who doesn’t like confrontation. He’s a peacemaker. And sometimes I think you have to be a little more forceful. And sometimes I don’t think [Obama] is enough with the Republicans.’”

The Obama’s as “peacemakers?” So was a 45-caliber colt in the Wild West days but we’re not advocating shooting people. Standing before a black audience and condemning mostly white groups from the grass roots levels such as the tea party is an attempt to pit one group of American’s against another. Remember, Nancy Pelosi call the Tea Partiers “Nazis.”

Michelle Obama’s speech, in reverse given by someone white, would be considered racist and an attempt to incite a riot. Post-partisan, post-racial were all campaign slogans for Barack Obama. Michelle Obama is an extension of the New Black Panther’s and that’s not post-racial.

However, Michelle Obama still isn’t really proud to be an American even while she lives in the White House. Michelle is very angry and very racist. Indeed!

“There’s 40 million potential revolutionaries north of the border, inside the belly of the beast,” Los Angeles high school history teacher Ron Gochez told a frenzied crowd, referring to the 40 million Latin Americans in the United States. He went on to claim that teaching or writing a book “is not part of the movement,” and that his followers needed to go a step further — to literal revolution (video embedded below the fold – Hat Tip:  Jawa Report).

This History Teacher fromt Santee High School in Los Angeles calls for Mexican revolt in the United States at a La Raza Rally. Is he asking for violence to go along with his revolution? Is he call for war against the United States of America or just the “white people” he singles out in his diatribe?

Newsbusters asks why the mainstream media isn’t all over this.

I ask, is the school teacher legal? Stand with Arizona, stand on the side of the law. Indeed!

Yid With Lid: He was giving the key note speech at a Washington Institute For Near East Policy and started it out with a “joke” that borders on anti-Semitic, teaching the crowd that Jews are just greedy merchants in the same vein as Shakespeare’s Shylock…

According to the Jewish Forward:

After the speech, two participants suggested, in private conversations with the Forward, that Jones’ joke might have been inappropriate. After all, making jokes about greedy Jewish merchants can be seen at times as insensitive.

A prominent think-tank source who attended the event said the joke was “wrong in so many levels” and that it “demonstrated a lack of sensitivity.” The source also asked: “Can you imagine him telling a black joke at an event of African Americans?”

Also from Yid:

Was the Joke Anti-Semitic? Well, the White House must have thought so. The White House transcript sent to reporters after the event conveniently began a couple of minutes into the speech. The video of the event posted on the Washington Institute Web site started right after the Joke, you can even hear the end of the laughter.

Its interesting that the same President that sees racism in the legitimate actions of the Cambridge Police and the State of Arizona, hides the anti-Semitic prose of its National Security Adviser.

UPDATE: I found the video but couldn’t download it. I contacted my friends at Breitbart and thanks to the Scott Baker at Breitbart TV, I was able to get my hands on the video of Jones’ “comic delivery.”

So the “joke” blows up in the face of the Obama administration and they scrub it. However, those pesky right-wing bloggers are able to put the remarks out in the open.

Look at Obama’s treatment of Israel – do you think this is anti-Semitic? Indeed!
