American Conservative reportedly to publish far-right columnist's baseless, racially charged claims about "wigger" Obama

In a March 11 entry to his weblog, columnist and film critic Steve Sailer -- who has written that African-Americans "tend to possess poorer native judgment than members of better-educated groups" -- posted excerpts of an article about Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) that Sailer claimed will be published in full in the March 26 edition of The American Conservative, a magazine co-founded by MSNBC political analyst Patrick J. Buchanan in 2002. Sailer has launched race-based attacks on Obama in the past and has drawn criticism for racist claims about African-Americans in general. The excerpts of Sailer's piece for The American Conservative are rife with baseless allegations, name-calling, and racial stereotypes.

1. Hoo boy. First, doesn't a "wigger" have to be white?

Oh, right, probably a cutesy, coy way for the bigot to take a swipe at Obama's mixed-race heritage, sort of like Coultergeist not quite calling Edwards a, you know, bundle of sticks. :grr:

Oh yes, the "unofficial state motto" of Louisiana is "Laissez les bons temps rouler". Perhaps now the bigot would like to go off on a rant about people not speaking English. :eyes:

2. Whoa! So, I guess the former editor of the Harvard Law Review

was just an affirmative action token, too. :eyes:

Wow. I truly am stunned that one of the highly acclaimed Conservative mags would stoop so low, and there's going to be a backlash for them if they do. Wow.

6. I know, it's like the only conservative publication I can read without vomiting.

Damn, I'm very angry now! :grr: :nuke:

3. Big surprise huh?

I'm amazed at the efficiency that groups like the KKK and white power have been able to take over the term "conservative" and yet it still doesn't have the stink that it should. Currently we see "conservatives" use the term liberal like an epithet and it sticks.

Somehow I want to make the terms conservative and "lynching racist scumbag" synonymous in the media, it fits those assholes pretty well.

4. Pat Buchanan is a total racist

Not surprised he would give an asshole like Sailer, a sopabox.

5. That sucks. I can tell you, I've read ACM before...

and it's usually not like that. It actually sounds like The Nation with older people.

But if this is true, I'll never read it ever again. I tell you that pisses me off!
