Not that it matters much what this fuck thinks — other than Obama’s background was supposed to endear him to our enemies in some ways (see, for instance, how Iran has claimed to embrace The One!) and allow him to open a dialogue. But for what it’s worth:
Al Qaeda’s No. 2 leader used a racial epithet to insult Barack Obama in a message posted Wednesday, describing the president-elect in demeaning terms that imply he does the bidding of whites.
The message appeared chiefly aimed at persuading Muslims and Arabs that Obama does not represent a change in U.S. policies. Ayman al-Zawahiri said in the message, which appeared on militant Web sites, that Obama is “the direct opposite of honorable black Americans” like Malcolm X, the 1960s African-American rights leader.
In Al Qaeda’s first response to Obama’s victory, al-Zawahiri also called the president-elect  along with secretaries of state Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice  “house Negroes.”
Well. Two out of three of those, whispered in the right circles, would net him an invite to “progressive” parties at Danny Glover or Harry Belafonte’s house.
So he’s got that going for him.
Other than that, he’s likely just taking issue with what Charles Ogletree has assured us is Obama’s “white” side.
But give him time. He’ll learn to respect Obama’s multicultural nuances. After all, they only attacked us because we don’t understand their suffering.

Yes, Danny, those pants do make your ass look fat.
Don’t forget Ted Rall. Condi is a House Nigra.
Good ol’ commie Danny personally made and served a shrimp gumbo for the wrap-party for Oprah’s “Beloved”, that was tasteeeey, yowzah! He was bulking his proletarian creds that night. He hung out the whole night, whereas Oprah, not so much. It was a ripping good party too. (oh, and Thandie Newton is more gorgeous in person than on the screen even.)
When reached for comment Rev. Wright was quoted as saying “Condeskeeza Rice? I am sick and tired of Negroes who just do not get it.”
I think we should send Jesse Jackson over to have some sort of protest against Al-Qaeda.
If you read the transcript this Al Qaeda guy sounds exactly like Rev. Wright. This is hilarious.
I’d bet on “abd” being the word used. Arabic for “slave”…
Dustoff! Dustoff!
Brown on brown casualty needs a dustoff!

An enemy is just a friend whose ass we haven’t kissed smoochily enough yet. Pass along the love, brothers and sisters…
“If you read the transcript this Al Qaeda guy sounds exactly like Rev. Wright. This is hilarious.”
Shit, I thought it was Rev. Wright.
I must have misread the church bulletin.
Anywho, that muslim Tokyo Rose just called you a “house nigger” Obama!
That’s bad PR. Won’t look good on the street.
You better hurry up and surrender some of our shit quick!
Or have the transition homies do a drive by.
Or invade Pakistan.
Ya know…whatever.
You’re the ONE and whatnot. Up to you.
Just saying…
FDR wouldn’t have taken that guff sitting down!
Oh…wait…yes he would.
He kinda had to.
Fucking polio.
But Michael Bay got him to stand up!
Ah shit, nevermind. That was Jon Voight.
I didn’t think people in the Middle East even cared about the whole black/white thing. Wonder what he’s been reading…
Wellllll…
I guess that cements it…
MSNBC will most certainly be referring to them as eeeeevil Jihadist terrorists now…
Or definately “extremists”…
I mean, we all know they struck the world trade center towers out of frustration; you know, our lack of empathy and such…
But calling O! a house negro! Now that’s terrorism…
And when we finally see the MSNBC crew vilifying terrorists…
Well lets just say, that’s really change we can believe in…
“I mean, we all know they struck the world trade center towers out of frustration; you know, our lack of empathy and such…But calling O! a house negro! Now that’s terrorism…”
Ah, yes. Islamist “chickens coming home to roost” and killing 3,000 innocent Americans is fine. Good. Deserved even.
But when that muslim parrot shows up saying, “house negro?”
Well it’s on now bitches.
That wasn’t exactly in Rev Wright’s church bulliten (made Farrakhan nervous you see), but Jesse Jackson has already threatened to snatch Zawahiri’s nuts out, and Sharpton just accused Al-Qaeda of running over Tawana Brawley’s sister.
Get to it Chris Matthews!
Snap, snap!
More Africans were sold as slaves to the Middle East than were sold to the Americas. Now, ask yourself why there are no black populations in the Middle East…
Rob, there are some. Iraq has a small but significant black population.
Probably for the same reason that the same word means both “black” and “slave”.
“Now, ask yourself why there are no black populations in the Middle East…”
Because all the males were “neutered” five minutes after they were yanked in chains off the caravan.
Once again the language of the left is parroted by the Islamists. Perhaps that’s why Obamessiah was so intent on no preconditions – he knew there was little time to convey those critical nuances of doublespeak and pre-negotiations would only slow the process.
Unfortunately now they’ve really jumped the gun and gone and made the gaffe of grouping all black politicians based upon the color the skin, instead of the color of their politics.
Stern letter from the UN to follow.
Anything thinking the Kossak Kommunity(tm) is going to get riled about this will be disappointed. According to most leftists, Al Qaeda doesn’t really exist, and by extension Ayman al-Zawahiri is really a CIA or Mossad agent straight from Central Casting…
On the bright side, if we can taunt Zawahiri into a Michael Richards rant against Black Jesus, tactical nukes may be on the table for Tora Bora.
Also on the bright side, Salt Lick, Zawahiri can recognize an enemy when he sees one, thus somewhat clarifying things for those among our politicians back home here who at times seem to have a bit of difficulty with just those sorts of distinctions.
If this was poker you’d call that a “tell”.
I did not know that. How are they treated? Where are they?

mojo, and I was taught the more polite version.. “servant”. Nuance dontchaknow.
ROb,
I saw a few folks “of color” in Baghdad. Dealt with them mostly not around other Iraqis, so I can’t help with the how they were treated part.
Here’s an old Washington Post article about the issue.
Wait. I’m confused. I thought Changey-Guy was going to end the zionist patriarchy and make the Freedom Fighters love us again. Uh oh.
Funny, though. Demonstrating a determination to murder all us apostastes wasn’t enought for AQ to inspire a scintilla of opposition on the Left.
But this . . . this . . . offensive speech?
SEND IN THE NIMITZ!
That old dude needs to either pull his turban down or make his boyfriend take his belt off, that knot on his forehead looks bad.
But wouldn’t that knot be a great source of pride to him BMoe, a mark of the devout in prayer? So I’d think he wants it to be seen.
Oh, is that what it is? I thought his boyfriends belt buckle was hitting him. My bad.
ohnoes BMoe, I didn’t mean to suggest he was praying for anything other than another hot load from his chosen bff……….if that is, he’s the one doing the choosing.
since halloween is over-i really miss that song monster mash
i like the song alley oop though…
look at that caveman go!
“But wouldn’t that knot be a great source of pride to him BMoe, a mark of the devout in prayer? ”
Knot?
By the looks of it he’s been praying around a goddamn arc welder.
Here’s to hoping the stupid sonuvabitch ain’t grounded.
[raises tumbler]
describing the president-elect in demeaning terms that imply he does the bidding of whites
Thank G-d – the Joooos are still in full control!
Weren’t we over there bombing everybody b/c we hated ‘brown people’ or whatever the fkn Leftards kept saying? Now that we elected our own official ‘brown person’ they’re all talking shit.
I don’t get it. Must be a black* thing.
*disclaimer [or claimer, anyway]: I never got that whole ‘brown people’ argument, mainly b/c I see the Semitic peoples as basically white boys. But it their argument, so what the Hell, I hope they choke on it.
Amongst the purported house negroes I’d say that Condileeza Rice has more experience.
Colin Powell more gravitas.
Obama? FNG
white? black?
no slave blood i see
still, there is rev wright
lets call it black
Muslim? Christian?
there was that time in indonesia
but i don’t think wright was there
let’s call it christian
friend? Foe?
the enemy of my enemy
can’t really prove it, but american
foe
capitalist? socialist?
hard to know, what time is is?
and besides who cares?
let’s get it on
Oh, that was Al Qaeda guys poem for Obama…
You overextend to be hip and unobrtrusive. Yuk.
You make no sense.
Everyone’s a critic…
She’d been on something of a clarity streak though.
Is calling the “O” a “house Negro” grounds for his to launch a thermonuclear strike on the towelheads of AQ?
No, I think Obama is the kind of guy that will just act all pissy about it in front of Polosi, make a lame ass joke like “what did they vote republican?”, and then him and Nancy will laugh and laugh.
Then he will sit at his desk until he thinks up three more lame jokes about Republicans, including one about Bush, so he can slip them in his speech next week that Ayers is writing for him and say he wrote the speech.
With the middle finger scratching his cheek with every mention of Bush.
I overextended my hip once. It was quite painful. I’m sure people noticed, but were too polite to say anything.
Well at least he made no comment about his ears. You know The One is very sensitve about comment regarding his ears.
Of course, this is now being spun as a “glass half full” thing for the O!
By Richard Clarke no less!
Yeah SDN, I heard Rush saying they(of the tingle crowd) now credit Obamas middle name for conquering terrorism. You know, that middle name McCain forbade us to say.
Richard Clarke is Joe Wilson’s illegitimate father.
#44: That was my oblique response. You guys are spoiling for a reason to attack more Mideast assets, and this loudmouthed fucker is obliging you. Agreed, that comment of mine made minimal sense.
Oh, is that what it is? I thought his boyfriends belt buckle was hitting him. My bad.
I was calling it an entry wound until someone told me about that prayer thing.
Nah, he’s still yapping, baldi. It’s a nice thought, though.
We guys are?
B.O. cracks me up. He’s all ready to throw Israel under the bus (yes, the exploding bus) to capture the “I made peace in the Middle East” legacy Clinton failed to achieve, thus hopefully earning props from the Hamas/Jihadi crowd.
Except that, the fundie Muslims have established that they believe in equal rights: they had anyone from the west equally, regardless of their skin color.
At least they have the chutzpah to state it up front, rather than hiding behind affirmative action and liberation theology.
I think B.O.’s naitvete is going to be his single greatest liability in international circles. This pollyana hug-a-unicorn (that’s for you, Carin) stuff is going to get us all in a heap O! trouble.
At the risk of going against the current here…I despise pretty much every single teeny thought that flits through BO’s microscopic mind, but nobody has any business trash talking our president. I hope somebody finds this piece of offal and he gets gutshot a long way from the nearest corpsman.
