Did Republicans get together and come up with "token" lingo?

[PretzelWarrior]

Don't address concerns of African Americans but refer to everything as "bling bling"? WTF? Here's Romney on the campaign trail last year going for the "black speak" trifecta (Who let the dogs out? What's happenin, and bling bling). Now we have Michael Steele elected RNC Chair? And describing added features of stimulus package as Bling???

Wow, they must really think African Americans are stupid.

1. They probably think that Steele can say anything and

attack Obama without the risk of being called racist. I expect the rhetoric to get worse.

3. it's horrible, cynical, and so 90's attack. it won't work

it's a few thousand smear merchants vs. a few million pissed off Americans.

Sorry Palin, Steele, Bobby Jin and all of the GOP who look like Kip Dynamite as they try to woo the cool kids with their poser street cred:



Just look at how they scrambled to get a black guy. any black guy to run against Obama for Illinois Senate in 2004. Some of the funniest quotes ever from that bat shit crazy mofo.

In other words RNC........

2. They definitely came together to come up with "tokens"

Tokens include:

Palin
Steele
Jindal

6. quota ...

With Condi, they hit the motherload ... an African-American woman! Pay her big $$$ ... plus, she gets to sleep with the Prez ... her "messiah" ...

4. No, just more aging white guys trying to look cool

Happens all the time -- think back 8 or 9 years ago when that annoying guy in the office couldn't stop saying "whaaaassssuuuuuuuuup!!!!" all day. One of these days we'll probably hear Mitch McConnell say "Oh, snap!".

I'm an aging white guy myself, and this always makes me cringe. We can't really pull this off convincingly without looking like a tool...

5. GOP2012, now funky fresh, yo.

Word to ya moms. Vote for us, homeboyzzz.

Please God let them try reTOOLing their language like this. That would be awesomely jarring and funny. :thumbsup:

7. that's what I'm hoping for. low comedy

or it could be funny and nauseating all at the same time.
