Hundreds of Doughy White People Protest Slender Black President Vaguely
It’s funny how the health care reform debate is turning out. On the left you hear, “health care costs are breaking families,” and “it’s immoral to let Americans choose health or money,” or something along these two lines. On the right you hear “there’s nothing wrong with health care,” and “only lazy people don’t have health insurance,” or something along those lines. Of those 4 tacts, I identify most with the morality issue.
I’ve written here before how I long for the return of the intellectual conservative, lest you think I’m a flaming liberal, anxious to spend other people’s money, but those days are gone for good, I fear. So I reluctantly side with the Dems, who seem to have a monopoly on well educated policy wonks and intellectuals these days.
But what’s most amusing about the health care debate is the lengths to which white people have flocked to cluster among themselves to protest nothing in particular. I can’t help but wonder if this has anything to do with a slender black man giving his ideas about how to fix a health problem they might not even agree exists.
Let’s have a look here:
White people protest Obama for nothing in particular
and here:
More Flabby White People Protesting our Slender President
I like this particularly, with the misunderstood meaning of the “Don’t Treat on Me” flag (an image of unity and federalism, or socialism as they surely called it back then with slogans like “Keep Your Hands off My Slaves,” and “Don’t Let Women Have Property,” etc.:
More white people protest the president in general
Conservatism is such an attractive philosophy in theory, but the bloated white people marching in unity against nothing in particular doesn’t really make you want to roll up your sleeves and join them.

You are a flaming asshole. I hope, like most fags, you catch aids and die a miserable death. I am thin, white and voted for Obama. Your petulant diatribe has involved me in something I initially had no interest in. I hope I catch you in a dark alley somewhere…I’ll let you hold the knife buddy.
Thanks in advance,
Ill-Wisher

It was just a satire piece on fat people protesting a healthy president over health care. The pictures have been removed, but they were really fat and doughy. Sorry I upset you, I was just trying to point out the irony.
