Neo-nazis say: vote Obama

Esquire magazine, admittedly not always the most reliable of sources, has interviewed several prominent US career fascists, and amongst the drooling, gum munching racist filth it was today revealed that significant members are planning to vote for Barack Obama rather than his white, Republican opponent.

Rocky Suhayda, the chairman of the American Nazi Party, said: ‘White people are faced with either a negro, or a total nutter who happens to have a pale face. Personally I’d prefer the negro.’

And there’s more!

Tom Metzger, the director of White Aryan Resistance, said: ‘The corporations are running things now, so it’s not going to make much difference who’s in there, but McCain would be much worse. He’s a warmonger. He’s a scary, scary person–more dangerous than Bush…I hate the transnational corporations far more than any black person.’

Please understand the difference between endorsing white supremacists’ rhetoric, which I’m not doing, and giggling helplessly as the last rats leave the sinking McCain schooner and American politics goes through the looking glass. Combine this with possibly the worst assassination plot ever (two young men plan to buy/steal some guns, wear white tuxedos and drive in the general direction of Obama, somewhere, whilst shooting things and shouting, before getting shot by police. That was their plan. That was their whole plan.) and I think liberal American kiddies can sleep safe in their beds.

    [...] Even neo-nazis think Obama is better than McCain… [...]

Absolutely hilarious stuff (tho’ surely a hat-tip to Popbitch is in order?). Still, can we at least wait until Nov 5 before we start bashing Obama for not being liberal enough…?

Who’s popbitch? Let me know and I shall find a hat and tip it!

popbitch.com

It’s a gossip email circular.

Ah, apologies – just, the post went up about an hour after Popbitch went out, so I assumed that’s where you’d found it (on the grounds that c.4 people in the UK read US Esquire…).

My favourite bit was the last section, where the “black racist” said he was voting for McCain because Obama wasn’t “black enough”. :-)

Got to hand it to Esquire – even when they’re interviewing self-confessed racists, they manage to maintain that all-important ‘balanced’ coverage…

hi my name is tim i was originally from boston i was never concidered a skinhead how ever a white nationalist
and i would like to bring this up to every one who claims to be an american.
1. you are not americans you idiots unless you are native american my great grandfather moved to america in the 1930’s besides two jewish surnames yes i saw these names and had to look it up infact they are jewish decent of their names.
2. you people get all hyped up on this shit
pathetic as it maybe you are rodents since the beginning over politics you can’t possibly understand.
of course they will claim white power groups the jews own the media everyone knows that unless you live in china
as i do now.
besides that what most often don’t see is that they voted for a black supposively muslim charactor like obama to defeat or atleast try to make americans like their government this all is propaganda much like bush he too,is a puppet a very wealthy puppet might i add but all the same
