- alapoet, on 06/17/2008, -12/+346This kind of nudge-nudge wink-wink approbation of racism makes me sick.
- preneel, on 06/17/2008, -20/+228This is disgusting. What kind of country is this when racists aren't worried to be so blatent.
- InfamousAtheist, on 06/17/2008, -12/+179I'm a Texan and Obama Supporter... and this stuff is common down here. Inexcusable.
My friend had to sit through several hours of Obama bashing on Sunday. To avoid a family fight, he had to avoid reacting to crap like "he's a muslim terrorist."
Seriously... who accuses a US Senator of supporting or being a terrorist???

- InfamousAtheist, on 06/17/2008, -8/+125This comment has already been posted. Buried twice for being a whiny little bitch twice.
- Arishia, on 06/17/2008, -9/+112Someone should ask McCain about this at one of those town halls.
- peticsu, on 06/17/2008, -11/+106whoops, there goes another $25 to Obamas campaign...
- GorfTron, on 06/17/2008, -22/+106I don't know. Did we rename it the Retarded Hillbilly House?
- westbay1, on 06/17/2008, -12/+83You should see the e-mail I received from a certain religious organization... needless to say, same message. Horrible.
- InfamousAtheist, on 06/17/2008, -5/+75It's everywhere in Texas. I'm ashamed of my fellow Texans right now. (again)
- InfamousAtheist, on 06/17/2008, -0/+62Blog it, name the sender, digg it.
- Akairenn, on 06/17/2008, -0/+62I'm rather glad racists can be so blatant; it makes it that much easier to know who's a douchebag.
- BishkekBuddy, on 06/17/2008, -17/+76Disgusting - no other word for it - just DISGUSTING.....
- inactive, on 06/17/2008, -1/+58This isn't any different than the use of his middle name constantly, followed by "what, we can't say his middle name? (snicker, snicker)", as if they use the middle name of McCain all the time.
This really IS the bastion of racism. "I didn't REALLY say anything, but you know EXACTLY what I mean"
Pussies, all of them. - dinobot, on 06/17/2008, -3/+60Agreed, I'm also a Texan and an Obama Supporter and I have to deal with the same
Stay classy, Texas~ - numberneal, on 06/17/2008, -7/+62that's just fanning the flames in the bellies of supporters of, and Obama himself that will allow them to recruit more voters towards their cause and push faster for the inevitable.
- MakiMaki, on 06/17/2008, -17/+72You're really burying it because you're a conservative who hates Obama (judging by your other comments on digg). That's fine. It's your opinion. Why not admit it?
BTW This story is new to me, I didn't see it on digg when I posted it. - SDDave0, on 06/17/2008, -3/+53That is not a "nudge-nudge wink-wink" - that is absolutely flat out unashamed disgusting racism.
- amoirae, on 06/17/2008, -0/+49Freedom of speech doesn't grant them immunity from criticism.
- NotaDem, on 06/17/2008, -7/+55I will be voting against Obama in this election because of his voting record clashing with my beliefs on many issues, but I find this pin to be garbage and those wearing it to be simpletons.
- PoopOnPaul, on 06/17/2008, -1/+46Irony FTW!
- inactive, on 06/17/2008, -2/+47Is it legal? Yes. Should we as a society tolerate it? No. The freedom to make racists lives miserable for being racists is part of America as well.
- InfamousAtheist, on 06/17/2008, -5/+49You really don't have a ***** clue, do you?
- pianomahnn, on 06/17/2008, -9/+53The United States of America. Freedom of speech. You may not like it, you may not agree with it, but they have a right to say it.
As tasteless as this is, and as much as I wished these sorts of people didn't exist, it is what it is. I'd rather a few people be allowed to say whatever they want than everyone limited in what they can say. - sealink, on 06/17/2008, -0/+43Agreed. Out them.
- beerncheese, on 06/17/2008, -8/+51If racists were smarter, would they use proper grammar?
- travis6690, on 06/17/2008, -0/+41Buried with my -1 shovel of Trollslaying.
- pintomp3, on 06/17/2008, -1/+40we aren't saying they don't have a right say whatever they want. but we also have the right to criticize.
- charm803, on 06/17/2008, -0/+38Have you seen the other buttons on there?
"Pro life
Pro gun
Right wing
Christian"
and
"Proud Republican, American Christian"
but I fail to see harboring so much hate is being a good Christian.
Unbelievable! - pintomp3, on 06/17/2008, -5/+39racism and xenophobia have been on the rise for a while now. conservatives have virtually made it part of their platform.
- gypsi, on 06/17/2008, -3/+36since around september 2001
- thepeacemaker, on 06/17/2008, -1/+34Not sure what y'all are talkin about. The major cities like Houston, Dallas, Austin, etc are fairly liberal and democrat leaning. So it's not "all" of texas that is messed up.
- charm803, on 06/17/2008, -0/+32Whoa there, butt wiper.
These two guys may share different points of views, but they at least have tolerance of others on digg.
Your previous comments contain typos and grammatical errors, so I can see you must be the educated few.
You obviously hate atheists but if you were any type of Christian you would not use that language you are using, or that hate.
Guess you're going to hell!
Tell your mom to suck it. - FadieZ, on 06/17/2008, -5/+36I actually thought this would just be another inaccurate title being blindly dugg by Obamabots, but holy *****.
- SDDave0, on 06/17/2008, -5/+35Unfortunately, not fast enough
- MattB123, on 06/17/2008, -0/+29^ Exhibit A
- allowners, on 06/17/2008, -15/+43Republicans are a dying breed.
- Key2gb, on 06/17/2008, -7/+35Yes, because the building we call the White House is painted white...hence we will still call it the White House. Only someone ridiculously stupid would have to manufacture a bunch of pins asking the same easily-answered question. ...So there are really no surprises here...these are the same people that voted for Bush twice. 'nuff said.
- TheJimid, on 06/17/2008, -4/+32Really because Ben Smith posted it on Politico like an 3 hours ago. Also its only Tuesday so the oldest it could be is 3 days. We watched Reverend Wright for a month so a couple days of shedding some light on Texas GOP racism seems refreshing.
- Albear89, on 06/17/2008, -19/+46Hey *****! I'm a Texan and a college grad. I take them as fighting words. BTW - not all Texans are redneck ***** just the ones out in the stix. The button is offensive, I agree, but your stereotype of Texans is equally offensive.
- freeth1nker, on 06/17/2008, -2/+27You stay classy, GOP.
- inactive, on 06/17/2008, -4/+29I'm a socialist. Why should I vote for Obama? Which industry is he proposing to nationalize?
Or do you not understand what the word "socialism" means? - vibrokatana, on 06/17/2008, -3/+27*WHOOSH*
Hear that? That is the sound of you missing the point a second time. - pintomp3, on 06/17/2008, -2/+25i think they have a special on the noose attachment.
- joeomar, on 06/17/2008, -15/+36"We shall overcome oneday" It is good that I know more people who love than hate. Also, Americans are better than that, we have to pray for people who hate.
- SDDave0, on 06/17/2008, -13/+34"The company that makes the buttons boasts providing “Patriotic and Republican Products.”
We all know that republicans are known for being racists jerks, but since when is being racist "patriotic"? - DrunkPrimate, on 06/17/2008, -0/+20We may not agree on some things but I'm glad you sir hae some bit of proper mental facilities
- NotOptium, on 06/17/2008, -3/+23Maybe the reply was pointing out the fact that the pinko/red scare died many decades ago, and the only time such words are used is when satirically mocking the ignorance that infected the government (and thus the media, and many of the people) of that time. Maybe Infamous' post was pointing out that by using the word pinko, you're making a complete fool of yourself. Or maybe Infamous is just pissed that you don't like Obama. Either way, I'm laughing at your stupid, ignorant ass.
- charm803, on 06/17/2008, -0/+20The senile bastard would deny knowing of it.
