I Give Unto You…A Negro

It having been twenty five years since Michael Jackson appeared with the Reagans at the White House, and nearly three days since Michael Steele embarrassed himself in some electronic medium, it’s now time for conservatives to find a new black person to be comfortable with. 

Now, you might have thought that Tea Parties were faux-grassroots protests of something something something…and you would be right.  But they’re also serving another purpose: tryouts for Real America’s Next Top Negro!  It’s convenient and a bit brilliant, in that it allows a bunch of people who don’t have to go to work that day to both stand around and judge brown people for being shiftless, lazy assholes and to immediately reverse that assessment once a brown person pulls out an inexplicably sexual “DON’T TAINT MY TEABAG” sign.

First, we travel to Tennessee, where there was at least one verified black person:

12:40 — Guest veteran gets huge cheers from the crowd, “I was offended by being called a racist redneck teabagger,” says our veteran, who is an African-American female.

“Let’s start in 2010 by getting these idiots out of office and let’s get some conservatives — Democrats or Republicans. Because this isn’t about parties…And guess what? We’re not as dumb as you think we are.”

“Woo!” the crowd cheers.

Woo! indeed.  She is the new Condoleezza Rice. 

And next…uh, well, there is no next, as Nashville was apparently the only place in the country where enough unemployed, part-time, or third shift workers could get together to stand out in the sun and happily discuss the incoherent slogans they cribbed from Redstate.com then wrote down on the leftover posterboard from their kid’s presentation on how every single world leader between 1936 and 1944 was a fascist except Winston Churchill.

For a much as conservatives deify Churchhill, one might suspect he was Ronald Reagan’s dad.

No, wait.

Sorry, Reagan was of a virgin birth. Sorry, my bad.

What about the two black actors in American Carol? Gary Coleman’s always been a Republican, IIRC; dunno about the In Living Color guy.

Oh, Gary Coleman. Is there any way in which that man is not fucked up?

I think I may have to make “Don’t Taint My Teabag” the new tagline for my blog.

Probably any half-sane black person who can memorize bizarro-world talking points could take over the GOP in a heartbeat. Notice that this does not include Michael Steele.

No, there is not even one way in which Coleman is not f’d up, making him supremely qualified to step in and be the next RANTN. He did make a fierce run for governor, afterall. I’d be willing to bet Emmanuel Lewis might welcome a gig right now too.

Coleman/Lewis in 2012!

OT, but has anyone been offended by the news networks dragging black folk out of the hinterlands of TV journalism not to comment on Jackson’s demise, but to do the interviews? Some of the interviewers I hadn’t seen for more than ten second interviews suddenly get many minutes of facetime. They’re news reporters, why didn’t they get such facetime before?

P.S. That last was a rhetorical question.

Comment #8: mndean  on  06/30  at  12:23 PM

So…ummm wasn’t there supposed to be another hyoooog TeaBag dealie on the 4th of July?  Hello?  Anybody there?  I’m here with my sign and stupid Dr. Seuss/Uncle Sam hat.  Ahhhh, c’mon.  Y’all promised.

*crickets*
*crawls dejectedly back under rock*

Well, finally a running mate for Palin.  This election is going to hit a new low in slime.  I can’t stand Condo Rice but teabagging was not something that I ever even dreamed about her.
