BigHo honcho Andrew Breitbart:
Democrats long ago jettisoned America’s melting-pot ideal – E Pluribus Unum ("Out of Many, One") – because it imperils their campaign for permanent rule. Splitting the country into separate identity groups and playing them against each other works a lot better. And anyone who disagrees is a racist.
Okay. Let’s roll the tape.
I suppose I should point out that that was not the stupidest thing Breitbart wrote in his weekly column.
That would be this:
The Democratic Party’s attitude to elections is admirable: Win. And recent history has shown it will do anything to do so.
When, if not now, will Republicans develop such a fighting spirit?
It almost as if Andrew was born on December 13, 2000.

so many asshats …so little time …
Tbogg, you really should spend your Sundays doing something more fun than diving through the dregs of society online. Take the boyz for a walk on the beach, or tumble around with Mrs. Tbogg, or read a nice book. We can’t afford to have your brain rotted by overexposure to Lower Wingnuttia.
At least he didn’t call it the Democrat party. I think he’s trying to reach out to us.
There’s this fellow, Karl Rove, I think he’d appreciate these thoughts, Blart. Please forward them to him, he might run with the ideas.
Really….
“…it imperils their campaign for permanent rule.”
Democrats aren’t the ones *I* heard espousing a “permanent majority”….
Skipped reading the article and went straight for the comedy: The comments. A sample:
Whoo-boy. These people really are suffering from collective amnesia.
“As I see it” translates from wingnuteses as “When I put my fingers in my ears, close my eyes and scream, things are much different. And there ain’t no uppity coloreds.”
By electing a mixed-race President? Man, he doesn’t even make sense according to his own rules.
Whoo-boy. These people really are suffering from collective amnesia.
It’s not the first time. I was of voting age at the beginning of the Nixon years, old enough to remember the Checkers Speech and interested enough to know about Nixon’s shenanigans in the California legislature. When Nixon was forced from office it was as though he never existed. After Carter was elected the games began. No blogs back then, just op-eds and letters to the editor – both chock full of wingnutty goodness. Who knew, for instance, that the Oil Embargo was a Democratic plot to force the adoption of Carter’s crazy ideas about energy conservation or that the return of the Panama Canal to Panama was payback to a shadowy cabal of international Democratic backers?
There’s always a sinister plot, there are always dark forces arrayed against the stalwarts of conservatism. The MSM is perpetually on the other side. And the beat goes on.
I have to keeep reminding myself that so-called pundits like Breitbart, Goldberg, Erickson, etc., and Republican leaders like Palin, Steele, Newt and Boehner aren’t actually absurdist comedians and writers employed by Comedy Central and HBO. Imagine, Democrats want to win! What could be more hilarious?
Now, where’s my medical marijuana and biscotti?
The Dada Party?
There are never enough white people for the Republicans. Haven’t you heard them demanding that we all reproduce like bunnies?
Damn those Democrats and their making-campaign-speeches-and-asking-people-to-vote-for-them ways! Why can’t they all be like that nice Joe Lieberman and understand that we are born to rule?
Isn’t it just awful how absolutely no one ever in the history of this country ever did that before? Slavery, for example, was a strict meritocracy.
Perfect.
“And anyone who disagrees is a racist.”
Quitsies, double stamp it, no erasies!
I can’t imagine reading enough of Breitbart to form an opinion of the stupidest thing that he’s said this week–no, actually, I can, which is why I won’t. Thanks for taking this one for the team.
Jeff Gannon projected the GOP mindset the best I have ever heard and with only a few short words.
They are divorced from reality.

I hereby proclaim that Andrew Brightfart is a projectionalist.
Breitbart makes me all tingly inside. He likes us. He rally likes us. Precious.
Good god, TBogg, I can’t believe you actually wade through that shit. It would drive me mad(der). It is really breathtaking how someone like Breitbart can take what’s happened in the last eight years and pretend that his shit don’t stink. Amazing.
…and reality had a good lawyer.
I just want to say, looking at that video, I feel all the same feelings I felt that night. It’s an awesome video. It was an awesome night. Best night’s sleep I had in 8 fucking years.
I’m spending way too much time on losers like Limbaugh and his cohort. When Obama won, I realized, pyshically, how pissed off I’d been for most of the last 8 years. On Nov. 5, I felt like I’d had the world’s best massage and a couple of margaritas. Loose like a goose.
Thanks, T, for going where I will no longer tread. Someone has to keep an eye on them.
Can’t be doing your BP any good, though.
