Are these the bush twins with this racist redneck?

[Skip Intro]

On edit - looks like its photoshopped. The dude is for real, but apparently photshopped the pic with "the girls." Apologies.

We have a local station here that seeks controversy by having this "personality" come on once daily to give his view of America, and how things out to be.

He calls himself the Southern Avenger, and wears a confederate flag mask at all appearances (at local bars, etc).

Normally don't listen to that station, but had it on today, and heard this moron going off on Social Security, how bush is right and what we really ought to do is strangle the program and immediately find the next assistance program to kill. Oh, and this, like every other thing, is all "traitor Lincoln's" fault.

Well, I went to his website to leave this masked coward a nice message, and right there on the front page, what do I see, in the first pic:



Are those "the twins" there, yucking it up with a man in a rebel-flag mask?

Not that its really relevant, I guess, and maybe this should be in the Lounge (I'll understand if its moved), but i thought I'd share it.

1. Oh my lord no way, a photo is worth a million words.

:kick:

3. Yes, that's the Bush twins...

...oh, they keep such pleasant company.

[ewagner]

4. Actually I think this is relevant!

Why?

The Flag itself is controversial and politicians usually run AWAY from any references to that particular flag....

Now.....the flag is attached to a RW verbal bomb-thrower and lookeee here......the President's daughters are Fraternizing with him......

Shouldn't there be a demand that they "disavow" the flag and the message?

on edit: Just sent this link off to a local radio host.....maybe we can get somebody to actually talk about this.........

[whistle]

15. Fraternizing, the masked avenger is practically in Barbara's lap

...and he is fondling the brat's (Jenna) knee!

[ewagner]

18. Yeah, but

EVERYBODY does that :evilgrin:

[ultraist]

19. The neo confederate movement is white supremacist

Many white supremacist groups are using the confederate flag, including the "white music" groups.

The confederate flag is widely recognized as a hate symbol, like the swastika.

If this photo is for real, I wouldn't be surprised. I've always thought the Bush KLAN is connected to the KKK.

5. Is he for real?

Or does he work for The Onion?

6. Sho Nuff

[grumpy old fart]

7. Any chance the dude is just being ironic?

[Rob H.]

8. "With intelligence and tolerance far below those of mortal men..."

He's only perched on the General Lee because the Southern Avengermobile is up on blocks in front of his not-so-secret lair, the Avengertrailer. I guess the mask helps keep the mullet under control.

I can picture the Avengersignal, even: a dunce cap sporting the Confederate battle flag!



(And I live in the South and have family here--this guy is an embarrassment to breathing humans everywhere.)

[Clark2008]

24. True, but I like the General Lee

I believe a sports car isn't REALLY a sports car unless it's got a touch of "redneck" in it. LOL!

(And, I'm not talking about the Stars n' Bars on the top - I'm talking about the redneck of the vehicle itself, in this case a 1968 Dodge Charger...)

I really am a girlie girl, too!

:hi:

9. photoshopped, that's really John McCain

the pic with the Bush twins is really McCain and it's from one of the debates last year.

[Catherine Vincent]

10. Isn't that photoshopped?

I think that pose is when they were sitting next to McCain.

[seabeyond]

11. first i want to know if phote with the twins TRUE

because it looks like a photo of mccain leaning over barbara to talk to jenna. it looks so famaliar, so i want to know if it was photo stopped

[Dave Reynolds]

12. I don't give much credence

to a "pro rassler" in character.

[Vinca]

13. He's probably telling them how much he can can score for them if,

of course, he gets a little something in return . . . and I don't mean a tour of the Jackie Kennedy Rose Garden.

[chelaque liberal]

14. Are you sure that photo is real?

It looks so much like the photo of McCain with the twins at the convention.

[whistle]

17. If that is John McCain, the photo would be incriminating...

...without doctoring, look where the guys arm and hand is!!!:wtf:

[tech3149]

20. You're right

That was at the RNC

[Skip Intro]

16. *SORRY* Looks like its photoshopped

So many people pointing out that it resemebles McCain and "the girls" it must be true.

The jackass in the mask is real enough tho, but that photo evidently is not.

Apologies.

[tanyev]

22. Maybe John McCain would not appreciate

his image being used in such a manner....

[paineinthearse]

27. Can you provide a link to the original? nt

[tanyev]

28. Similar photo-different angle

The girls are wearing the same clothes.

[Tweed]

21. The guy is real: Here's an article about him

For well over five years,"The Southern Avenger" has been a radio personality for modern rock station 96 Wave (96.1 FM) in Charleston, South Carolina. TSA specializes in blending politics, culture and entertainment and his commentaries can be heard every weekday, with brand new installments airing on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. 96 Wave is consistently one of the highest-rated radio stations in SC, and the Avenger broadcasts on the station's highest rated program "The Critic" (Monday through Friday, 3 to 7 pm). Below is TSA's personal bio:

The Southern Avenger was born the day "The Critic" of 96 Wave had the balls to put me on the air. Since then, it's been full speed ahead and I've given my opinion on virtually everything imaginable. Simply put, I am more interested in right and wrong than Left or Right and do my best to give my opinion accordingly.

I mask my identity because unfortunately, I don't feel that free speech is really as free as it should be. Sure we have the first amendment, but you try telling that to some small-minded prick with a hot temper. I fight my battles with words - not my fists. Don't get me wrong, plenty of people in this world deserve a good ass whoopin' for a variety of reasons - but not for merely giving their opinion. Might has never made right. Right makes right. And in today's world trying to say what's right can be dangerous. Hence the mask. (I also wear the mask because I'm a huge pro wrestling fan. Isn't everyone?)

My mask features the Confederate flag design for obvious reasons. I mean really - my name is the Southern Avenger - what did you expect? I'm very proud of this flag and what it stands for. If you find this confusing or believe that the Confederate flag stands for things that one should not be proud of, then read my essays. I simply ask you to judge me by my own words - not your own prejudices.

Think free, speak free and take care,



The Southern Avenger

26. Yup, I'd know the "cupcakes" anywhere!!!!!!

"Cupcakes" is a term from the Vanity Fair interview, source of this picture.

Compair and judge for yourselves.

[NervousRex]

29. Cupcakes?

...looks more like Ho-Ho's to me...:shrug:
