Govenore Zell Miller: Obama needs to sit in ‘Gorilla Glue’ and stay put

[sarah553807]

Zell Miller is back, and as edgy as ever.

The former Georgia governor and U.S. senator, who has kept out of the limelight these last couple years, today put in an appearance at a meeting of the Republican-oriented American Legislative Exchange Council in downtown Atlanta.

My AJC colleague Aaron Gould Sheinin was there, and posted a full account on Gold Dome Live. Here’s the part that will resonate

Miller said Obama’s decision to try and close the Guantanamo Bay prison where suspected terrorists and enemy combatants are held, is “nuts.”

"Today we’re spending like we’re Paris Hilton, regulating like we’re Ralph Nader, nationalizing like we’re Hugo Chavez, printing money like we’re the Weimar Republic," Miller said.

“This strange Obama sense of justice penalizes our civilians’ with their loss of freedom while rewarding the terrorists with new rights they never had before,” Miller said.

Obama, “our globe-trotting president,” Miller said, “needs to stop and take a break and quit gallivanting all around. I think Rahm Emanuel ought to get some Gorilla Glue and put it in that chair in the Oval Office and say ‘Sit here awhile.’”

13. zell should just put gorilla glue in his mouth

and up his asshole.

[LWolf]

14. Waste of gorilla glue.

I say we put it on a bench in a Carthusian Monastery, and stick Rahm on it. We leave him there until he learns something about humility and community.

We can use the rest on another bench on the other side of the monastery for Miller.

15. well, my initial reaction was to "Gorilla," thinking racism...

But there actually is a popular product called Gorilla Glue, gets great reviews.

[unblock]

22. this is what republican propagandists call "cover"

you're right, there is a clear racist message in using the term "gorilla".

the fact that there's an actual product called "gorilla glue" gives them cover, so if they're called on it, they can say, "hey, it's just a product name."

but, of course, there are plenty of other product, and they didn't say "elmer's glue" or "krazy glue" or "loctite glue" or any of the other brands.

no, of all the brands, it just HAD to be "GORILLA" glue.

[BlueMTexpat]

32. Mine too.

I concur with unblock. Had Miller wanted simply to make a point, he could have used another well-known name. But no, his racist inclinations had to be made manifest. And he gets a free pass because there is actually a product with the name "Gorilla" in it.
