I take it the sign writer is therefore a whigger.

ManchuCandidate August 5, 2009 at 3:09 pm

“No, I think he said he’s a Nearer.”

DoctorCulturae August 5, 2009 at 3:10 pm

Facepalm.

Mr Blifil August 5, 2009 at 3:10 pm

At Xmas time I imagine we’ll be hearing how Obama is an egg-nogger.

Yes, I am sure that the gun store owner didn’t see that one coming at all. Wow. If the South Park episode hadn’t already happened, I would expect it to now.

“He’s a black man. I didn’t vote for him but he is President” Damn, they are some smart down there in Kentucky.

RoscoePColtraine August 5, 2009 at 3:13 pm

‘Nagger’ is a legitimate word, (verb) as in:
Bird gotta fly,
Fish gotta swim,
Wife gotta nag.

Obama is a nagger. He’s been nagging congress for health care. Don’t be so goddam dense.

orange August 5, 2009 at 3:15 pm

Hahahah. He nags a lot.

The owner *could* find a synonym for “nagger” that is not so potentially racially charged (say, e.g., whiner, or annoying) if he really wanted to. But you know he’s not going to. QED.

Zadig August 5, 2009 at 3:17 pm

I love that, in a racial dig that was already the opposite of subtle, our heroic vandal felt the need to remove any hint of ambiguity in the message.

Mr Blifil August 5, 2009 at 3:18 pm

Nagger? Please.

Todd Mecklem August 5, 2009 at 3:18 pm

I’m purty sure they meant FAGGERT. And he’s got a purty mouth, too.

[re=379092]josereyes.theroof[/re]: I just saw the sign for what the poster was obviously saying. Don’t make me close my comments with [/snark] plz.

Noodle Salad August 5, 2009 at 3:19 pm

Good news – the owner got a security camera installed, so they can figure out which of the brave and witty vandals to invite to the Saturday night cross burn–er, prosecute. Yeah, that’s right.

TheGryphon August 5, 2009 at 3:20 pm

looks like someone already replaced the “i” that KKK gun shop guy put on his sign with an “a”. This wouldn’t have happened if we had elected that nice older white guy and his mistress, also.

Heh. I know it is wrong, but completely insane signs placed in front of redneck businesses are one of the great joys of my life. After 24 years in Kentucky I have learned to love them. They are like little pockets of crazy scattered along the roadway to entertain you on your journey. Just, you know, read them really fast because if you slow down you might get shot.

twowheeljunkie August 5, 2009 at 3:28 pm

Nagging was not what I was thinking when I read the title.

So sure the guy knew what he was doing.

snideinplainsight August 5, 2009 at 3:29 pm

Maybe he was pRomPtiD to write that -

norbizness August 5, 2009 at 3:31 pm

If somebody puts up a sign written in English in a shithole town comprised of illiterates, then was it ever REALLY put up?

P.S. I am against giving stimulus money to Kentucky and points further south (including my own beloved Texas) because we’ll probably waste it all on guns anyway.

Gayer Than Thou August 5, 2009 at 3:32 pm

[re=379094]bureaucrap[/re]: Or, y’know, he could even have gone with “complainer,” which would actually have worked better in the sense that it would tie the whole statement back to the original assertion (“Obama complains”). That is, if he were aiming for political commentary and not racism.

karen August 5, 2009 at 3:33 pm

I think the saddest part of that article wasn’t the racial slur, but the fact that the store owner was actually upset that Obama has either said or said something close to that list. America is a fat, bullying nation filled with stupid cops…DOWN WITH THE TRUTH i guess.

TricksyCoyote August 5, 2009 at 3:33 pm

“He’s a black man. I didn’t vote for him but he’s the president,”

I like how the token quoted racist is implying an if-then statement:

IF a black man is elected president, THEN he is a n*gger.

Because that’s so much better than “If a black man is black, then he is a…”

hiphophitler August 5, 2009 at 3:33 pm

As everyone in DC knows, the President is niggardly.

Cape Clod August 5, 2009 at 3:34 pm

Obviously this guy doesn’t know how to call a spade a spade.

Hooray For Anything August 5, 2009 at 3:37 pm

His attitude towards the cops shouldn’t be that much of a surprise considering Obama’s previous career as a member of Naggers With Attitude

[re=379136]american mutt[/re]: Well, I was born here so originally I didn’t have any say in the matter. Now I stay purely for the entertainment value. The level of pure political insanity in Kentucky rivals any state in the union. Plus, Louisville really isn’t bad, if you ignore the weather. And the fact that the city was actually flooded by shit yesterday. I blame Jim Bunning.

StoneAge August 5, 2009 at 3:52 pm

What? all I’m saying is that there’s no need for Obama to be so niggardly about the F-22.

And Secretary Chu always finds a chink in the armor of global warming debunkers.

Also, Judge Sotomayor sure keeps her bench spic and span.

queeraselvis v 2.0 August 5, 2009 at 3:53 pm

There are very few times that I’m glad I’m from Tennessee. But this would be one.

El Pinche August 5, 2009 at 3:56 pm

It’s too bad, but we know Obama won’t go mad-naggerish on these assholes. He’s too cool.

But you can’t blame the republican party, they’re not racist. They have Michael Steele as the head of the RNC which makes everything aiiight.

[re=379159]Hooray For Anything[/re]: This was always my favorite song of theirs:

Straight outta Chicago crazy motherfucker named Barack
From the gang called Naggers With Attitudes
When I’m called off I got a sawed off
Squeeze the trigger and bodies are hauled off
You too boy if ya fuck with me
The police are gonna hafta come and get me
Off yo ass that’s how I’m goin out
For the punk motherfuckers that’s showin out
Naggers start to mumble, they wanna rumble
Mix em and cook em in a pot like gumbo
Goin off on a motherfucker like that
with a gat that’s pointed at yo ass
So give it up smooth
Ain’t no tellin when I’m down for a jack move
Here’s a murder rap to keep yo dancin
with a crime record like Charles Manson
AK-47 is the tool
Don’t make me act the motherfuckin fool
Me you can go toe to toe, no maybe
I’m knockin niggaz out tha box, daily
yo weekly, monthly and yearly
until them dumb motherfuckers see clearly
that I’m down with the capital C-P-T
Boy you can’t fuck with me
So when I’m in your neighborhood, you better duck
Coz Barack is crazy as fuck
As I leave, believe I’m stompin
but when I come back, boy, I’m comin straight outta Chicago

And you should hear MC Skip Gates verse.

Such cunning linguists. Why, I’ll bet they’re real proud of their little Joke! What a bunch of drooling mouth-breathers. It’s difficult to grasp the depth of ignorance displayed by the GOP, but it’s frightening nonetheless.

Rachel Ray Jihad August 5, 2009 at 4:12 pm

“Nag” would have been sufficient, as in “The President is a nag.” “Nagger” just sounds awkward.

Then again, he might not have gotten his point across when “kids” went and changed his sign in the middle of the night. It’s not a full-blown racial slur without the “-ger!”

Simba B August 5, 2009 at 4:49 pm

It’s actually the punch line to an old, old joke I heard while serving at Ft Bragg, NC:

Guy comes into an attorney’s office and says:

‘I want me a DEE-vorce’

Lawyer says:

‘Do you have grounds?’

‘Got me 42 acres out around Benson’

‘No, do you have a case?’

‘Nope, got me a real nice John Deere’

(I guess I have to explain that ‘Case’ is a brand of tractor that has now been replaced by ‘Mahindra’. God Bless The Global Free Market!’)

‘That’s not what I mean. Do you have a reason to divorce your wife? Was she a nagger?’.

‘Nope, she wasn’t a nagger, but she damn sure run off with one!’

LoweredPeninsula August 6, 2009 at 5:23 am

Well, just so you all know, I’m one of those nagger-niggers, ’cause all I do is complain, but I’d have it no other way. Thank you racist, slack-jawed yokels of Kentucky for recognizing the accomplishments of us nagging niggers. You know, like winning presidential office and becoming Harvard professors. The closest any of you will ever come to sitting in the White House is sitting in the dining area of a White Castle stuffing your fat, toothless mouths full of greasy sliders, and I ain’t talking about the ones in Europe, either. Also.

Oh, and can up folks up here in the Old Northwest build a wall along the Ohio River, already? You Southerner’s can keep Cincinnati, if you’d like.
