You are here: Home » General » Mitt Romney, White Supremacist
If the Romney campaign wants to run on an open platform of white supremacy (oh I’m sorry “Anglo-Saxon heritage”), I say that’s the greatest thing since, well, ever. Nothing screams candidate of 21st century America like open white supremacy. I guess if Romney’s goal is to win less than 25% of the under 30 vote, this is a good start!

You may think you’re being ironic, but I think this is literally true, for a Republican candidate. And I’m fairly sure the Rmoney campaign has already written off all the non-white & most of the under-30 year old vote anyway, and are depending on frenetic elderly voters and soured/unemployed working stiffs, and banking on the crappy economy swinging it for them.
Which, given the staggering ineptness his campaign has displayed pretty much all year, is about the only way it will work. I was contemplating gathering a book together of all his cockups, lies, and missteps, and titling it ‘How to win a campaign without even trying’ … or ‘How tolose a campaign without even trying’, depending on Nov 6 of course
Yes, I was thinking the exact same thing actually. He’s waiting for someone to say they were being racist. At which point he will immediately scream “There’s that Black President playing the race card again!!!”, and every right-winger will immediately want to vote for him even more than before.
If he’s waiting for Obama to call him out for being racist, he’s going to have to do something more extreme than this. Obama’s most famous campaign trait is that he remains unflappable under pressure.
Essentially about the only way to get Obama to complain that Romney is race-baiting is to stop using the dog whistle and make it obvious. That might (might mind you) get Obama to say “wow get a load of how racist this guy is”.
Good Point. I imagine he’s more than aware of the Right’s desire to get him to speak out on it.
It doesn’t have to be Obama or anybody from his campaign. If a DKos poster with the handle “xxKidIcarusxx,” writes that it’s racist, the Right Wing Noise Machine will announce that Obama is playing the race card (as they already do on a regular basis).
Yeah but so what? That’s background noise at this point – it’s been going on for over 4 years at this point.
What matters is if the campaign makes a big deal out of it OR some PAC associated with the campaign starts making a big deal out of it.
And they won’t. Because Obama doesn’t need to advertise “hey the Republicans this year? They’re racist.” Because Republicans have decided to campaign on “hey vote for us – we can pander to racists!” Anyone paying attention who cares about racism has figured it out – and anyone who doesn’t care or isn’t paying attention isn’t going to be swayed by Obama complaining about it or pointing it out at this point.
So Romney needs to basically drop an n-bomb to get Obama to complain. And even then the best he’d probably get from Obama is a shake of the head and a “can you believe this guy thinks that’s the way a President should talk” response.
They have retired the dog whistles in favor of klaxons.
Anglo-Klaxons?
Maybe Grand Klaxons.
White noise
The article is indeed scary, but can we make sure we keep things accurate. The adviser quoted above wasn’t directly discussing Argentina and is rather obviously not talking about Argentina. The phrase “reach out to America’s adversaries” is code for Muslim nations and another way to imply that Obama is Muslim. That’s worth emphasizing, not pretend snark about Argentina being referenced as an adversary.
The adviser quoted above wasn’t directly discussing Argentina and is rather obviously not talking about Argentina.
Neither was Loomis.
Concern troll is so concerned he cannot read.
How exactly am I a “concern troll”? I suggest you take your own advice.
Seriously, Erik did not mention Argentina. Did you post that comment on the wrong blog?
Well, the only mention of Argentina is in the linked article. There is NO mention of Argentina in this blogger’s post. I think the concern troll thing is just a normal mean internet thing, you shouldn’t be surprised.
When it was originally posted there was a whole second part about the Argentina quote and a quote earlier in the story. Don’t know why it was removed.
Which doesn’t actually change the point that Loomis nowhere discussed Argentina, just the “Anglo-Saxon” nonsense.
Yes he did, in the original post. He had the quote from the adviser “In contrast to President Obama, whose first instinct is to reach out to America’s adversaries” follow by saying it was in reference to Argentina. This part was was removed. You either didn’t see it or are being deliberately obtuse.
There was actually a paragraph about Argentina in the original post. It disappeared sometime in the night.
you know how it is at night, you start exchanging glances, wondering what are the chances and who know’s where you end up

You say that like it is a bad thing. Beats the hell out of brain dead and delusional cryptofascist racist misogynists like yourself.
To be fair, I did put a paragraph in about Argentina that I took out 5 minutes later. I guess this comment slipped in during that time.
This is what happens when you leave your dog whistle in your other khakis.
The wingnuts are tired of dog whistles. They want it (i.e. the “vetting” McCain supposedly denied them in 2008) all out there front and center this go-around.
Shorter Republican base: Lick my face! Lick it! That’s a good boy! Don’t mind the drool. Lick me wet and lick me now!

Good answer, and a closer analogy to Romney than what Pseudonym was going for.
Its the same people who also are all in favor of deporting 8-10 million people at a clip they consider “undesirable”
In the Conservatives desire to ‘take America back’ to pre-Civil Right’s days, it sounds like Mitt’s campaign staff is missing an opportunity – they should stick Mitt in a button-down cardigan sweater, give him a pipe, and make political ads about ‘My Five Sons.’
Of course, they’ll still have to install the “Thoughtfulness” and “Empathy” software that he lacks, and Fred McMurray oozed.
The only thing Mitt oozes is disingenuousness.
And I am heartily sick of all of the ‘Code-talking.’ Look, just go ahead and say what you want to – the “N-word.’ You’ll all feel better – and it’s not like “Rational America” doesn’t know what all of the bullsh*t you’re spewing is really about – racism as a wedge issue.
Conservatives desire to ‘take America back’ to pre-Civil

It was a better, simpler time, then. Diphtheria, polio, outhouses, childhood mortality, and no commies, liberals or gays. The good things in life.
Once we are there, we will start to hear about the Jacobin, abolitionist, suffragist, Mexican, Barbary, Cherokee and Canadian menaces.
You left out Catholic — all those untrustworthy, un-American Italians and Irish used to be a threat to our American way of life, until suddenly they weren’t because there were bigger threats to obsess over.
I assume you mean Papist.
You know, JohnR, you really should provide a link when you’re quoting from George Will’s columns.
It can’t be from George Will article. There wasn’t a rant about jeans in it.
George Romney would be proud.
From the Daily Torygraph story:
Perhaps someone should advise the advisers — and the Daily Telegraph — that the Epstein bust of Winston Churchill belongs to the UK Government Art Collection, and although Romney may be used to things he wants simply appearing when he snaps his fingers, in this case it is not his decision.
The underlying message might have been “I will make England the US’s bitch again and pillage it at leisure, in the best Anglo-Saxon tradition”… but it could have been expressed more clearly
If Romney runs on this platform, then maybe I will vote for him!
Quick, someone contact his campaign team.
This “Churchill bust” thing is a longstanding rightwingnut complaint about Obama, and a complete mystery. What, the US should honor the UK by stealing its property?
You don’t understand at all. For that you should be happy because it probably means that you don’t know any “I’m not racist but” Republicans (or you don’t engage them in conversation).
The “giving the Churchill bust back” is supposed to show Obama’s contempt either for our shared English heritage (because Obama isn’t a part of that shared English heritage because he’s a Kenyan Muslim blackity black guy – and yeah, they mean WASP here when they say “English”, though they’ve forgotten what all of those letters after the W mean) OR his contempt for conservatism (because Churchill).
If you’re conservative but not racist, the “contempt for Churchill’s memory” bit leaps up. If you’re conservative and mildly racist, the “contempt for our history with England” bit leaps up. If you’re conservative and wildly racist it transforms into “Obama wants to help Kenyan Muslims overthrow the British government and implement Shari’a Law at Westminster” or something equally stupid.
The actual underlying fact – that it was a loan from the UK government returned when Bush left office – is unimportant. Because the factoid isn’t relevant for anything real, it merely reinforces the idea that Obama has contempt for something that the listener thinks is important and works on multiple levels. If you’re not already pre-disposed to think that Obama is going to wreck the country, then it passes right by you as a “WTF are you talking about” moment. A dog-whistle, in other words.
Getting rid of the Churchill bust shows that Obama is anti-colonial.
This is a bad thing, you see. No, seriously.
Hell if I know; they’re wingnuts.
The Greeks had the same questions about the Elgin Marbles
That’s different. Also, possession is 9 points and squatter’s rights, so there.
If Romney wins, shouldn’t we get a bust of Æthelred the Unready, as it seems more apropos and is very Angle-Saxon
But Jennie Churchill’s bust was 100% American!
At last, a President of the United States with the courage to tell the Normans to go fuck themselves.
Ha!
Nonsense. Who among us can forget
Is that Palin’s speech from the ’08 convention?
No, hers was the prescient prediction that Obama would abandon our only ally in the Middle East – the Jutes.
Jute-baiting? Surely not!
Although anyone who ever heard Palin speak knowns that she is anti-semantic.
That’s an angle I never considered.
ouch.
Harumph.
Funny, they don’t look Jute-ish…
How Jute Doing?
Being a community organizer is kind of like being the President, CEO, sole stockholder, and Chairman of the Board of a large venture capital corporation, except you have actual responsibilities.
Stealing this.
Sadly true. After all, Romney didn’t “Work for Bain Capital” in 2001 and 2002. According to Conservative principals, one gets paid for what one does (merit!).
He claims he wasn’t actually working there, but was drawing the same salary as before. Following their logic, he must have been doing the same amount of work BEFORE 2001 when he says he was working there.
But I guess the fact that as CEO and Managing Partner he probably did nothing except make money off his money is pretty obvious to anyone who cares…
I love this comment and I have it on good authority that the Emperor of Byzantium (some guy with an antique shop on the Greek side of Cyprus) applauds this announcement and is now waiting on the Romney position regarding the Turks
The day after his inauguration, Romney will land at Gallipoli with wave after wave of Australians.
Would that be one Aussie waving twice?
No, just Eric Bogle & Rolf Harris making rude gestures.
Nah, we learned our lesson when Churchill pulled that stunt.
Romney’s position is that Istanbul should be Constantinople.
When asked why Constantinople got the works, President Obama claimed it’s nobody’s business but the Turks’. Yet another example of surrender to militant Islam.
You win the thread.
*slow clap*
European Rivalry humor: you’re doing it right.
This kind of thing just isn’t properly Pictish.
The Danelaw for the Danes! Free Jorvik!
He’ll restore our “Anglo-Saxon” connection, huh? He’ll be well-disappointed, then. Genetic studies as far back as the late 90s have consistently shown there hasn’t been any significant change in the genetic make-up of the inhabitants of the British isles over, at least, the last 3000 years. The “English” aren’t Anglo-Saxons; they’re Celts(or more accurately, whoever the hell lived there before Celtic culture spread to the islands) who, for reasons a history book can explain far better than a blog comment can, speak a polyglot language influenced by pretty much every other language spoken in the lands bordering the North Sea. Except for Finnish. Unless they were born in Saxony or the Danish peninsula, A US or English citizen is only “Anglo-Saxon” is a rather limited cultural sense.
And just because it’s a pet peeve, most historians of the period of the “Anglo-Saxon invasion” agree that many if not most of the invaders and immigrants were Frisians rather than Angles or Saxons. Where’s the love, Romney?
Which makes you wonder, rather, why the Welsh have such a f*cking big chip on their shoulder.
Probably because they’ve spent most of the last thousand years being called foreigners in their own country, though I’d wager it has more to do with the violence of Longshanks’ invasion and the later campaign to suppress their language and culture. Lots of this stuff gets generalized over time as well. What began as ill-will among a displaced elite centuries ago becomes, by virtue of being written down, how later generations end up remembering the event. The role played in English identity by the works of Bede and Geoffrey of Monmouth are both good examples of that tendency.
My point, I think – genetic ‘ethnicity’ is for the birds compared to cultural nation-building and all its prejudicial possibilities.
“Genetic ethnicity” does not exist, as ethnic identity is a cultural construct based on competition between groups and is fluid and contingent.
Umm, yeah, I think we got that.
Maybe because no one can pronounce anything in their language?
Well the english stole all their spaces, resulting in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch and other nightmares
And you win the internets today. I am actually laughing out loud.
Well the english stole all their spaces
Not to mention the vowels.
The Welsh: We didn’t want to live in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch. The English made us do it! And, then took our damn longbows so they can fight the French, and then…”
They trailed off when they realized the 1500 year tradition of not listening to anything they said was happening again.
“The Welsh character is an interesting study,” said Dr. Fagan. “I have often considered writing a little monograph on the subject, but I was afraid it might make me unpopular in the village. The ignorant speak of them as Celts, which is of course wholly erroneous. They are of pure Iberian stock– the aboriginal inhabitants of Europe who survive only in Portugal and the Basque district. Celts readily intermarry with their neighbours and absorb them. From the earliest times the Welsh have been looked upon as an unclean people. It is thus that they have preserved their racial integrity. Their sons and daughters rarely mate with human-kind except their own blood relations. In Wales there was no need for legislation to prevent the conquering people intermarrying with the conquered. In Ireland that was necessary, for there intermarriage was a political matter. In Wales it was moral. . . . I often think,” he continued, “that we can trace almost all the disasters of English history to the influence of Wales. Think of Edward of Carnarvon, the first Prince of Wales, a perverse life, Pennyfeather, and an unseemly death, then the Tudors and the dissolution of the Church, then Lloyd George, the temperance movement, Nonconformity and lust stalking hand in hand through the country, wasting and ravaging.”
They’re Welsh; what more do you need to say?
I just want to know which is the greater sin against Anglo-Saxon solidarity in the minds of Torygraph readers: Obama’s Kenyan heritage or his Irish heritage?
Your comment is beyond the Pale.
You just won the internet.
With Oak Leaves….
Irish heritage?
O’Bama?
You don’t remember? On his mom’s side? He even made a visit over there to celebrate it and everything
This isn’t even a dog whistle… it’s a direct statement. Funny though… Mormons aren’t part of either the Roman Catholic Church or the Church of England, so it always amazes how people choose which level of discrimination they wish to subscribe to as if it can’t be applied to them. Well MItt… you may be white, but your not anglo-saxon.
This. He forgot the “P” in “WASP.” All the more reason to forget the whole package of discrimination.
I thought the “P” stood for “People with money”.
Is that not right?
Actually, Mormons are Protestants.
No they are not.
I can call a tail a leg, but that doesn’t make it one. In the common meaning of the term, which is “Christians who aren’t Catholic,” and not “Christians descended in an intellectual tradition from Luther and Calvin,” yes, they are, too.
Mormons don’t consider themselves Protestant. Do you consider Greek Orthodox to be Protestant? Copts? There are lots and lots of Christian traditions that are neither Catholic nor Protestant.
Bloody splitters.
The filioque remains an abomination.
Whether or not the word “protestant” includes Mormons depends on the context and how you’re using the word.
As used in the word “WASP,” “protestant” does not include Mormons. “WASP” is used to refer to a certain high status, privileged elite. That elite was defined in part by the inclusion of Mainline Protestants deriving from the Reformation, and by the exclusion of religious outsiders (such as Jews and Catholics). Because the term was primarily used in the past to describe the power dynamics of the United States and specifically the Northeast, it did not include “Mormons” because they were viewed (and are often still viewed) as religious outsiders–just as it would not include Greek Orthodox, Copts, etc.
Of course, the entire term “WASP” is mostly a reference to a past social dynamic and has little resonance today, given the decline in emphasis on ethnic/religious differences among Americans descended by Europeans. For example, for a long time, the Supreme Court was dominated by WASPs. Now, it consists of Catholics and Jews.
The end of discrimination along those lines is one of the triumphs of the last century. But, for the same reasons, we shouldn’t be discriminating on the basis of “Anglo-Saxon” or “White” identity either.
Also, the Supreme Court has never included a Mormon, despite a large numbers of Mormons in the United States.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_Supreme_Court_of_the_United_States#Religion
Compare that to the massive representation of the groups typically identified as “protestant” for the purpose of the word “WASP”–33 Episcopalians, 18 Presbyterians, nine Unitarians, five Methodists, three Baptists, and lone representatives of various other denominations
Whether or not the word “protestant” includes Mormons depends on the context and how you’re using the word.
As someone raised in the LDS church, please believe me that Mormons don’t consider themselves Protestant. I can bore people with a discussion of Mormon understandings of apostolic succession, but the short version is that Mormons consider protestants to be completely devoid of any justifiable spiritual authority.
So thin…it’s embarrassing to see Erik carrying water for the extremists of his party.
Few voters will agree with any of this.
Rather than water, Erik, any chance of a beer?
Water is one of the four key ingredients in beer.
And I’m sure that other examples of this type of thinking will manifest themselves in the days to come.
I actually thought that this quote was more interesting: “Obama is a Left-winger. He doesn’t value the Nato alliance as much, he’s very comfortable with American decline and the traditional alliances don’t mean as much to him. He wouldn’t like singing ‘Land of Hope and Glory’.”
Great flick, “Hope and Glory.” So Mitt wants to recover the pink bits for us ungrateful little twerps.
If Romney weren’t such an ingnoramus, one might almost think he is advocating abandoning independence and returning to the “mightier yet” British Empire . . .
What the hell? Barack Obama of Libya-operation fame doesn’t value our NATO alliances as much as…whom? The guy whose SecDef called them “the cheese-makers?”
Yeah, there’s someone who really valued our traditional alliances. BTW, do the Canadians still hate us?
He won’t even say “God Save the Queen”! He’s so….you know
Irish?
You’ve covered this already.
I thought he did, but only with “the fascist regime” being said next
Concern troll is concerned.
Concern troll is confused and thinks he is still over at Stormfront.
Clearly, Stormfront is the new voice of the GOP’s moderates.
Has been for a while.
Proof positive that they regard this as almost purely a base-turnout election. (Rightly so- polls are showing only around 8% of the electorate that isn’t firmly locked in.) Since Obama is very much a known quantity, this dog-whistling (or by now, screaming) strategy of “othering” is good for nothing except as a lame attempt to excite the most troglodytic elements of their base.
Every day this jackass wastes talking foreign policy is a good day for the Obama campaign.
That’s pretty much true of every day this jackass wastes talking, period.
I’m rather disturbed they said they would reverse Obama’s policy of decreasing Defense spending and repairing strained relationships. I knew the first one was coming, but isn’t reversing the second one basically stating that he’s going to flip off the whole international community if elected?
Obama hasn’t exactly been overseas bribing foreign nations in his term. Unless you mean bribing them with drone strikes…
You should be even more disturbed that they have all the true crazies, like John Bolton, on board and just waiting to work their magic in an Rmoney administration. IOW it’s a lot worse than just loose talk.
And that’s my point. There is no way in hell the undecided swing voters are clamoring for a return of Bush’s foreign policy. Obama’s Europe trip in 2008 served a purpose. This trip serves none other than to remind voters of a foreign policy which they largely disliked.
Oh, and to let Mitt visit his money
Very good. And Obama’s campaign should use that when asked to respond to any comments made by Romney while overseas.
Isn’t the term Anglo-Saxon a bit old-fashioned even for a baby-boomer? The only people who should be capable of using the term non-ironically should have adults when Romney was a kid.
Besides, Romney’s dark hair clearly identifies him as a Norman. The Anglo-Saxons were blondes.
Ah, the Norman Mormon.
Traveling, no doubt, with Suze Orman, George Foreman, Martin Bormann, and Carlton the Doorman.
Aaah! That’s the second reference to “Rhoda” I’ve come across today. The second in the last ten years, too.
The stormin’ Norman Morman.
That will go over big in South Boston.
Obama carried Southie (Ward 6) 60-40 in 2008, surprisingly enough.
I too was shocked that the descendant of an Ulster planter did so well. I blame gentrification.
Will Mitt Romney also restore the custom of giving foreign leaders impromptu massages? Because Obama has shamefully abandoned that one too.
“he feels that the special relationship is special,” Don’t worry about a racism here. Pay attention to the lameness factor, though. As far as “appeasement,” Mitt’s just trying to lubricate his “special relationship” prior to his upcoming visit to the U.K.
It’s only appeasement if it’s to non-WASPs.
Lee Atwater’s corpse just got monster wood.
Ew.
Ew.
Actually that is just the stake we tried to drive through his heart. Sadly, we missed because it was so damned small and withered.
Shorter Rmoney campaign: “The President is a-near!”
When Willard speaks to Israelis, in full Kow-Tow mode, he will invoke our Judeo-Christian heritage, even though his appears to be neither.
If Cthulhu loves me, Mittens will slip up and call the Israelis Gentiles.
Maybe he’ll start chatting about the lost tribes–that’ll be a hit, too.
Well, Mormons are descended from the Jewish via the Lost Tribes (according to Mormonism), right?
No. Native Americans are descended from Jews. Mormons are merely the spiritual heirs of the Abrahamic Covenant, which makes everybody else, including Jews, Gentiles.
So, is the Romney campaign channeling an old Glenn Beck conspiracy theory about why the Churchill bust was sent back?
See
http://mediamatters.org/blog/2010/06/29/obamas-grandfather-churchill-bust-wacky-beck-co/166993
for the debunk. Hint: it was on loan to Dubya, and was scheduled to be returned no matter who was elected in 2008.
So the Rmoney crew fired back:
1. What kind of newspaper was that, Chip? Ah, that kind. Figures.

Didn’t Biden make remarks about the adviser’s comments?
He never mentioned the Anglo-Saxon thing.
Wow, the academic job market is supposed to be terrible, and yet Loomis got a job teaching political science with a PhD in history!
And now Loomis is gonna act all insulted.
As he should. ;-)
Actually, an all white Anglo-Saxon party should be successful, considering the country still is 70% white. I never could understand all the media attention on say, who the Jews will vote for, there are only 2% of the population. Or we have to have the Hispanic vote, what for, they are only 20% of the population, or blacks were only 11% of the population. Let all the minorities be Democrats, and of course the so-called white progressives. But even white progressives are waking up to the fact that their children be born into a world where they already are minorities, hated minorities, in which no appeasement by liberals who are white can ever amend. It really is time to start thinking about the future of our children as minorities, I know what it’s like to be a white minority, I grew up in Hawaii as a white minority ruled over by Asians.I learned how to think like a minority, because I was a minority, there is actually strength in being a hated minority.if you don’t think so, ask most hated minority in the world how they fare, the Jews. Being hated for the Jews has been a blessing, they are the richest people in the world can have at home country. Time for people to start thinking like Jews, why not, you are already hated and blamed for everything like the Jews used to be except for now it is white people who are hated.
Slow day over at Stormfront? That is two of you mouth breathing whackloons today.
Wait… what?
I think Progressives are the only ones PREPARED to be a minority. They believe minority’s have the right to be represented and respected. More importantly, they believe being a minority shouldn’t make it harder to have a good life. However, Conservatives believe the only way to deal with a minority is suppress its votes and take away their rights’. Once you become in the minority, you will indeed be loss. You’ll suddenly find yourself stripped of your rights if you keep following your own policies, or discover you’re just radical racists.
