It’s not very often the boys at AMERICAblog get to type the word “clitoris” in a political blog post, but thanks to Michael Steele and the headquarters of the Republican party, today is that special day…
Do a search for products dealing with the word “Jew” and the RNC suggests you buy the book “The Jews and Their Lies”…
Seriously, when you said this:
…..I thought you were describing AMERICAblog.
Not because I believe it to be true (necessarily) but because of the sentence-structure. I did laugh.
That should clear it up–and no, this is probably a little worse than the average blog.
Reminds me of this dude I was talking about history with once at the bar, when he said “All I’m saying is, Hitler did kind of have a point.”
Either they had no idea how this could embarrass them or the RNC if just as fucked up as Swastika Guy. Which one is it?
Looks like some savvy GOPer caught on the site was being ridiculed.
The entry page is still up, but here’s what appears when you try to “Enter”:
Maybe they just sold out of the racist screeds and the porn.
Like it was performing some kind of keyword-based image search, but we haven’t found any search engine that brings up what this did in the top ten. It would be particularly bad if the person responsible actually picked those images.
Or at least a child-safe filter–wouldn’t this have bypassed those programs? What red-blooded American father wouldn’t put GOP.com in his ten year old daughter’s list of allowed sites? Didn’t Mark Foley prescribe some kind of law?
We digress.
I will bet dollars to doughnuts that someone in the organization did something so that typing in “Jew” brought up specifically those types of responses. If you do an image search in Google for “Jew books,” for example, you will not get responses remotely as racist as what came up on the GOP site.
The GOP should at least be asked to explain what sort of algorithm or search engine they used, so that independent verification can be performed. If they refuse to release that information, we can draw the conclusion that in fact yet another person in the GOP with a sick, racist sense of humor – and there are so depressingly many of them coming out from under the rocks nowadays – was busy at work.
Why’d they have to stop the racism? It looked like so much fun!
Well, actually no…
The brutally bigoted treatise was written by the leader of the Protestant Reformation, Martin Luther. Check out the Wikipedia entry if you want to read excerpts from this work of 16th century antisemitism:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O…
That was a new one on me. And it wasn’t all that long ago that I learned that Martin Luther came up with his history-shaking ideas while on the toilet (I’m not making this up):
http://coloradopols.com/showCo…
The publisher of this version of Martin Luther’s book has been described by at least one reviewer on Amazon.com as “neo-nazi.” Interesting to read the varying perspectives:
http://www.amazon.com/Jews-The…
On the cover of the book is a crude caricature of a Jewish man. Additionally, what I found especially peculiar is the author being listed as “Dr. Martin Luther.” With the addition of the “Doctor,” it’s almost like they were intentionally trying to confuse people into thinking that someone else whose name sounds similar had written the work. I can’t find any reference to Martin Luther having been what we consider an academic “doctor,” although he did teach theology.
I’m assuming the publisher, Liberty Bell Publications, is this same one, which has also reprinted “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion”:
http://www.archive.org/search….
Quite a book to be linked to on the GOP.com web site, all in all.
But this makes me sad. Sad because there is so much fear. Fear of Jewish people, Fear of Black people, Fear of Latinos. Why? Is this all the Republican party has to hold on to – fear.
Fear is the most destructive emotion in our psyche. I feel really bad right now for old America.
The saddest part is that this is so not surprising.
It’s called:
Everything on this has been pulled and I can’t tell what the point of it was. Obama is buying people books with the stimulus or what?
Whoever designed this search function / index was one sick bastage.
the person who put this together is actually a Democrat and they used this as a chance to make the GOP look bad?
I believe at last count there were only four Republican web designers and two graphic artists.
