When is ‘Whiteface’ Okay? When the ‘New York Times’ Says So
by Big HollywoodDaniel Kurtzman’s written for the San Francisco Chronicle and ridiculed Sarah Palin over at The Huffington Post. His political humor blog can be found at About.com.
Under the heading,”Michael Steele: Republican Clown,” Kurtzman posted this at About.com which, by the way, is owned by the New York Times:

Hang a few posters of Obama as Joker under a freeway overpass and the Left completely loses it. Do the exact same with a Republican and off in the distance all you hear is the gentle chirp of country crickets on a warm summer night.
Maybe that’s unfair. Maybe Those-Who-Cry-Racist didn’t know about this. Well, now they do and we should all look forward to the equal-opportunity outrage about to hit the Old Gray Lady.
Or not.

I would guess "Or not".
Yawn… Hey, stick to the important issues: Obama Kare, Crap and Raid, Middle class tax cut (NOT), and on and on and on. Don't get distracted by these non-issues.
the left's hypocrisy is a little overwhelming in its scope, isn't it?
That looks a lot like the pot calling the kettle …something.
Does it really surprise anyone, how far the depths of liberal hypocrisy runs?
Sheesh, that's almost thinking that they have any intellectual consistency.
Or a rational intellect.

it certainly ushers in a series of defining moments, doesn't it?…
The one thing about the Left is trying to deal with at least the veneer of tolerance of dissent, And like all veneers it shatters quite easily.
The Obama as Joker thing was a gimmee; considering the current zeitgeist. In other words, not inordinately clever- nor surprising. Michael Steele has had Oreo cookies thrown at him on more than one occasion, as has Ken Blackwell. Not a peep…
So it's finally out there for all to see. Bush was Hitler and deserved the most horrible of fates. Obama, stealth
socialist/Islamicist was going to be exposed sooner or later.
That sword does cut both ways, doesn't it?
There IS NO HYPOCRISY on the left. Period.
In order for one to be a hypocrite one has to have a solid base of values from which to deviate.
The very definition of modern liberalism is the complete and utter lack of any central values.
Just go re-watch Evan Sayet's seminal lecture to Heritage from a few years ago.
The MSM is incapable of realizing their hypocrisy. Their approaching bankruptcies prove that. Even as Pinch is forced to deal with a shady Mexican billionaire simply to keep his paper afloat for a few months, Pinch STILL continues the same lying hypocrisy that got him into this mess in the first place.
They won't see it. The MSM just won't see it.
Socialism, Communism, Fascism: All branches of the same totalitarian tree. You can't sell Rush as a fascist anymore than you can sell Obama as a conservative.
Or scruples!
That was a great lecture and really peeled the veneer off the liberals. They claim to do things for "the greater good", but all their deeds bring is misery and evil.
I think you're wrong. They KNOW they are hypocrites. They just don't care. It's all for "the greater good", you see, which excuses all wrongdoing in their minds.
You didn't know? The rule is nothing the Left does is racist, even if they do exactly the same thing they just accused a rightwinger of racism for doing. That's what's so nice about being on the Left– they can do whatever they want because they have "good intentions". Meanwhile the opposite is true of rightwingers, whose motives are so vile that none of their good deeds should go unpunished.
Kurtzman's little display is evidence that, not only are liberals racists, but mean-spirited and immature as well. At any rate, can anyone hear the outcry of the left regarding this; yes, its the sound of roaring…silence.
"I did not leave the Democratic Party; the Democratic Party left me."–Ronald Reagan
I always knew Shakes the Clown was a racist.
Obviously, Kurtzman is jsut a dangerous racist.
Oh how I Love to see these Hard-Lefties Gnash their teeth and Beat their chests when their own tactics are used against them………It's a lovely thing to Watch and so Richly Deserved.

DISGUSTING!
Simply disgusting. I'm not totally thrilled with Mr. Steele as our party's chairman, but to do this is a sign of evil and hatred of political discourse that goes well beyond the pale.
I am sick over this.
I hope the A$$ that did this is happy with himself, he struck a victory for beloved leader.
Simply sick.
Remember the outcry when a well known comic book artist painted a portrait of a vampiric George W. Bush sucking blood from the statue of liberty reminiscent of creepy Palistinian art meant to dehumanize Jews?
Of course not, there was on outcry.
The urge to save humanity is always a false front for the urge to rule it. – H. L. Mencken
About.com is still around? Last time I viewed one of their pages, I had a 14.4 modem and a CompuServe account.
Ah Patriot Act…you try so hard and come up so short….
As a woman I can multitask and I can do all of what you want people to do and ridicule the Times for this garbage…..and so can you.
wait until the posters are all over NYC. Do I hear the cackle of a madman echoing through the NY streets?
Don't you know, the more the object of a joke protests, the closer to a bulls eye was the jab.
Based on the gigantic whining sound from the Obama Media and the radical lefties, this was SPOT-ON!
Sometimes truth hurts.
Steele in white face looks kinda harmless goofy like John Wayne Gacy. The Obamajoker looks like his mask slid and we can all see the creepy horror underneath…
Gonna have nightmares tonight
yeah, they dont care. Besides us, who will call them on it? The ignorant that pray to the left wing media? They get away with. Until now.
"Ah Patriot Act…you try so hard and come up so short…."
Ouch !#$@
That hurts coming from a woman
LOL
/not the first time he's heard that i bet
Uh oh, I think Big Hollywood may get an invite to the next White House kegger.
After looking at his gallery from the link you posted, this guy is really into clowns. Actually he does some good work. I wonder if we could get him to do a Frank, Pelosi, Reid three ring circus?
Two observations regarding the left.
1) If they didn't have double standards, they'd have no standards at all.
2) It's not the act or event, it's who does it. If there is a 'D' by the name, they can do no wrong. If it's an 'R', they can do no right.
As Ann Coulter once said (paraphrasing), Yes, there are some bad conservatives but there are no good liberals.
always count on the liberals for the faux outrage
remember
OJ was innocent and the cops acted stupidly
just more of the LIBERAL VITRIOL AND HATE toward the Real Americans

the Limbaugh shirt misspells 'Fascism'…
go check it out.
I don't care about having the tshirt overly much myself, I liked it a lot, but I made sure my son, daughter, and son in law, all between the ages of 19-21 got one. I told them if they would wear it out often around their peers, I would pay them 50 bucks. That got a hell, yeah!!! I let them pick out their favorite, and they are on their way.
I repeat
is it just me or are the liberals getting easier to gig
no birth certificate?
cops acting stupidly?
video with obama admitting to single payer intention and proving lies and hypocrisy?
obama joker?
teleprompter failures?
some of the media starting to look for the truth?
cant get some dems to toe obama line?
and on and on and on
beginning of the end of the obama reign of terror on America?
people complaining about the Obama/Joker poster as being racist are dumb.
As far as this article goes… who is that clown? Is that supposed to be Michael Steele? I can't even tell. Not very effective.
The progressives loved it when Condi Rice ( black woman) was given 'demon eyes' in the USAToday. Now they're upset when Obama is shown with his true colors.
…"harmless goffy like John Wayne Gacy"?
You'll have to explain that one.
…"harmless goofy like John Wayne Gacy"?
You'll have to explain that one.
You make absolutely no sense, but that's to be expected.
And while you're at it, remove your head from ass.
So die MFer die!

Bah… waaaaaaa…
Just against mimes though, so that's okay, right?
of course … look at the trash that made it and market it…
I hope you're on your aids drugs, you simple minded bastard.
I don't think patriot_Act doesn't like seeing his own collection of his classy replies tossed back at him.
Oh, I like scruples. Or is that scrapples?
Thats funny, I thought Henry Waxman looked like a clown without ANY makeup, and Madame Pelosi like the Obama poster without the botox.
MFer? BFer? F? Tell m something, Cat. How is it that you toss around insults in text and STILL sound like a upper-class white kid? Admitedly its a rare feat but to use your words 'that's to be expected' from a repulsive troll.
If you cant argue the facts or have a civil discussion and have to fall back on insults and swearing you have already lost, Cat.
I always thought Henry looked like a rat while Pelosi looks like a dryed out corpse. With their looks though, I think both would be perfect as zombies for a stage show of "Herbet West: Reanimator".
To make it a more symmetrical argument, one could say that Leftists are permitted everything because of their good intentions, while it must be assumed that Rightists are permitted nothing because of the assumption that they have bad intentions.
It really doesn't go much deeper than that: "I have the best of intentions and the highest of motivations for my opinions, therefore anyone who disagrees with me probably does not have them."
How do you know their intentions are evil? "Because they disagree with me."
And why do they disagree with you? "Because they have bad intentions."
These people apparently have never heard of 'begging the question'.
Don't you know, the more the object of a joke protests, the closer to a bulls eye was the jab.
Based on the gigantic whining sound from the Obama Media and the radical lefties over a SINGLE little poster hung on a few freeway overpasses, this was SPOT-ON!
Sometimes truth hurts.
The Obama Joker posters are an improvement on the original. It's hysterical to hear the hypocritical comments from those who laughed at all of the Bush caricatures. What goes around, comes around.
The message the Left sends is clear: don't vote for African Americans because if you do you'll be called a RAAAAAAAAACIST for criticizing them.
The Left really does perpetuate racism the way they use race as a weapon. People of goodwill on the Left, when will you stand up and speak out against this? It's up to you.
LOL
Frank, Peloski, and Reid are already clowns in a three ring circus — only without the makeup.
They got Jindal too. Racists.
Is this where the fear of clowns comes from. I guess a lot of Liberals were scared by clowns as children and now associate it with those early fears.
they thinkWE are the stupid ones…
i think patriot act was just showing us the thing. i dont think p-a was the seller.
nor did we. Not sure P-A is clever enough even with the misspelling…
He has a new speech at the Heritage Foundation this year! If you liked the first one you will enjoy this one too.
