Hey Hillary! Once you go Black…

3-6-07.png

To do this strip, I listen and read a LOT of right wing crap and yesterday’s painful brush with idiocy was with Rush Limbaugh.

I heard Hillary’s clip from Selma during her rendition from Cleveland’s hymn. It sounded so atrocious and fake, I thought it was a satire piece from Limbaugh’s production staff – it almost sounded like Whoopie Goldberg in A Color Purple. It wasn’t until later yesterday when I realized, it was a real recording.

Holy crap! It was like she was trying out for Spielberg. It wasn’t a Southern accent, I can detect those, this sounded to me like a slave accent.

Yes, I know Hillary spent 17 long years in Arkansas, but surely, she would have a passable Southern accent by now. Ya know?

  • Obama also picked up a bit of an accent.

  • That is true, he did know how to say Alabama like he had lived there a long time.

    How does one say “Alabama” with the correct accent? In SC, we said the name of the state something like Soucahlina. NC is, of course, Norcahlina.

  • Kinda like “Aler-BAMA” with a slurred emphases on Bama.

  • God help us if Hillary comes to NC and refers to the state as “North Cackalaki.”

  • I wasn’t aware of the fact that someone could “go black…”

    I know that it gripes white folks to death to realize that there are some exclusive groups to which white membership is denied. “What d’ya mean we can’t join? We’re white, we can join anything.”

    When Bill Clinton looks at us poor and downtrodden types and said,”I feel your pain,” I believe him. When Hillary starts speaking in supposed slave dialect, I believe that she’ll do anything for the black vote.

  • Marines too weak for Gays?…

    click to enlarge I have never understood the whole right wing idea that Gays in the military are bad. Our military is rumored to be the toughest and most professional on Earth – able to run into the teeth of battle without batting an eyelash. Scared o…
