Racist Pastor Makes Icky Reference to Poop and Pee

schiffren

ABOVE: Lisa Schiffren counts the different words she knows for poop.


Apparently there’s nothing that whites can say anymore about blacks that the wingnuts will consider racist. But let an elderly black man suggest that there are whites who could stand some improvement in their attitude about blacks, and the wingnuts start doing the Italian Soccer Player Penalty Ploy, falling down on the field, shrieking loudly, writhing in pain and gesticulating wildly at some part of their body that was allegedly fouled. So, of course, Reverend Lowery’s reference in his benediction to a time “when white will embrace what is right” has set off the latest tsunami of crocodile tears, fauxtrage and white claims of black racism.

But Lisa Schiffren, the ideological love-child of Phyllis Schlafly and Pat Boone and persistent lumpnut at America’s Shittiest Website™, takes this wingnut hue-tennany one step further. Unbelievably enough, Lisa wraps up her complaint about Lowery in a cloud of scatological fixation that would embarrass even a diaper-clad Senator Vitter:

I personally found [Reverend Lowery’s little race rhyme] more than a little jarring—because of where I had previously heard a version of same. During various water shortages in California in the 1970s signs appeared in public bathrooms with the conservationist suggestion: “If it’s brown, flush it down. If it’s yellow, let it mellow.” Yes: yuck, gross, ick. … [B]ringing up that jingle and the imagery inevitably associated with it seems like a pretty unnecessary addition to an inaugural benediction.

Honestly, Lisa, get your mind out of the crapper. Everybody else in the world, when they hear mellow and yellow together (the only similarity between the Lowery benediction and Schiffren’s toilet slogan) would think of a Coca-Cola soft drink, or a song by Donovan, or Marion Bloom’s derrière. And it makes me think of a martini.

Apparently, Schiffren’s neighbors threw her kids out of the car pool because every time somebody said something to Schiffren about “dropping off the kids,” Schiffren would wrinkle up her nose and make retching sounds into her hands.

They’re so funny!! Everytime they open their mouths they reveal how totally lame they are.

 
 

Actually, Mayor Ed Koch of NY came up with that during one of our infrequent droughts and I had the same reaction when I heard Lowery’s speech.

He might have wanted a different rhyme there.

 
 

Given her obsession with scat, I’m surprised she didn’t interpret Lowery’s line about “where brown can stick around” to mean that there’s no need to flush the floaters, either.

 
 

It may be betraying my age, but that little litany of Rev. Lowry goes back to the 60s (or early 70s at the latest). Seems these little wingblossoms are such hot(air)house plants that they can’t find the humor in an old joke. And they’re ignorant of their own nation’s cultural history to boot.

 
 

As Bart Simpson once said of the water in Springfield: “If it’s black, send it back. If it’s brown, drink it down.”

 
 

I believe that was me.

 
 

I’m 26 years old, never lived a day before the 1980s, and I even know what the poem was a reference to. As astonished as I am about the wingnuts getting their knickers in a twist over this, I’m even more astonished at how they think this is some sort of political winner. Boo, elderly black preacher guy, for telling whites to do what’s right! I don’t wanna! Palin 2012!

 
 

What the hell is the matter with this woman? This is a connection that might occur to someone with a sufficiently juvenile turn of mind (most of us here, probably), but even that person wouldn’t take it seriously enough to write about it as though it were meaningful.

Woe is me! Cursed by my average intelligence to be denied the glory of being an online wingnut! Alas!

 
 

Guess keeping their tongues stuck up Bush’s ass for eight years has left wingnuts with a peculiar fixation on shit.

 
 

Lisa may say that but I see she’s licking her lips in the photo….Anticipation? I don’t really want to know her personal details. I can already surmise she’s a sick twisted pervert.

 
 

The original was this olde racist doggerel:

If you’re black, get back.
If you’re brown, stick around.
If you’re yellow, you’re mellow.
If you’re white, you’re alright!

Typical that racists have no memory of anyone ever saying this.

 
 

You know what? I’m finding it really hard to care what these losers come up with now that Barack Hussein Obama is presidnet of the United States of America. What I DO care about is the fact that there isn’t a new “LOST” thread around here.

 
 

How about a contest for a balloon caption for the above photo?

“Hmmmmm….Cleveland Steamer…”

I told you she was twisted!

 
 

Now, remember the new “politically correct” word that the racists use is “racialism” (Malkin) or “race realists” (Stormfront). Calling them racists make baby kitten jesus cry.

But I do think their comparison of blacks and asians with fecal matter telling.

There will be no LOST threads, if I can help it, until I watch last night’s episode on my Tivo. And that’s not going to happen until I finish rewatching Season 4 on blu-ray. I have the last three episodes of season 4 to go, so it shouldn’t be that long. . .

 
 

I wanted to shit but only farted. It broke my heart.

 
 

I guess the is the only poetry she’s every been exposed to. (Is saying “exposed” ok? I mean, it might make her think of somebody’s bottom or something.)

Funny. The Today Show mentioned this four and a half hours ago…

 
 

I guess the is the only poetry she’s every been exposed to.

There once was a lass named Schifferen
Who used the NR to shit in
Yellow let mellow, brown flush it down
And kill baby Jesus the kitten.

 
 

Extra bonus points for Molly Bloom’s bottom. As I remember, the line reads “smellow yellow furrow”. And conservatives are The Citizen from the Cyclops chapter.

Just let the wingnuts continue to spout off their imagined outrage.

As other people noted, it is part of a Big Bill Broonzy song from 1951. Lowery was also giving a partly historical view, reflecting on the many years he fought against racists like the wingnuts.

Remember, wingnuts and whackjob repigs are still just as racist as they were in 1955; it is just less socially acceptable to espouse such hate. Since wingnuts and whackjob repigs are uber-cowardly, you don’t hear them whining their anti-black sentiments in public unless others do it.

To paraphrase Dean Wormer, “stupid, cowardly, hate-filled, angry, talentless, brainless, idiotic, superstitious, unpatriotic, and 100% FAIL is no way to go through life”.

This is further proof of how many things in America would be better if white people were just allowed to scream n****** at any black person without fear of the PC police.

I am probably the whitest thing for miles around, and I have no idea what people could find wrong with the idea of embracing “what is right”. Mental, absolutely mental. Oh, then again, perhaps they think he meant “all whites are racist, and they need to stop it”. In which case, (a)stop being so damn sensitive and (b)self-awareness is a good thing, and sometimes you have problems too.

Umm, do they do Stealth Edits over at the Corner? When I clicked through, there was a second paragraph that ended with:

And no, I probably shouldn’t have written this post.

Was that there before?

Anyways, either she appended her post without indicating that she did or she recognized that she had composed a post full of “brown” and decided to publish anyways.

 
 

There once was a woman named Lisa
Who thought “piss” when visiting Pisa.

Probably? Probably?!? She PROBABLY shouldn’t have written the post?

“Hmmm, I probably shouldn’t have stepped in front of that speeding train.”
“Hey, I probably shouldn’t have swallowed that bleach with the ammonia chaser.”

Probably. Sheesh.

You may well be wondering why I was clicking through in the first place. Well, it was to dig for gems such as Ed Whelan’s take on same-sex marriage.

Apparently, denying gays the right to marry is not a “gay issue”, it’s a “defense of traditional marriage” issue. Why? Because as Whelan so honestly puts it:

I’d prefer much less mention of gay issues in the public square.

See, not only are “they” trying to destroy marriage, but they’re also icky!

 
 

Go easy on Schiffren. She wrote speeches for Dan Quayle.

I have no idea what people could find wrong with the idea of embracing “what is right”.

You have the right idea, I think. Many people, and wingnuts in particular, seriously get their backs up if they think someone is criticizing them, especially if they’re afraid that the “accuser” is right – and it’s easy to see how the pastor’s words could be interpreted as an attack if you were racist and unwilling to admit it.

It’s the same impulse that causes wingnuts to screech when people suggest, e.g., raising the CAFE mileage standards. That amounts to government taking your SUV away. It’s the “liberal fascism” mindset – if the government suggests that you eat healthy food, it is your duty as a freedom-loving patriot to eat bacon burgers until you puke.

 
 

During various water shortages in California in the 1970s

Now that’s something that wouldn’t stick in my mind for 35 years. A flood, being molested, the death of a beloved pet…those would traumatize me, but a bathroom sign reminding to flush, no.

There is nothing these people can handle. God help them if they ever have to live outside their gated communities.

 
 

Milk, milk, lemonade, around the corner you’ll find the Corner

Win.

Go easy on Schiffren. She wrote speeches for Dan Quayle.

Why? She had the cushiest job in America! How hard is it to write a speech for someone who’s going to flub it anyway? In fact, she and her staff probably had great sport sticking in words and phrases he couldn’t POSSIBLY get out.

 
 

BTW, in the voiceover commentary on a You Tube clip of The Worst Dive Ever–an Italian soccer player faking being tripped, such fakes apparently being called “dives”–the announcer, in a lovely contemptuous Brit accent, says, “…fully deserves censure. If not ridicule…”

Think I’m not stealing that for future use? Think again!

That walter williams dreck was some of the most horrible shit I’ve ever read. Even worse was a comment appended with the following:

Fuck these fucking assholes sideways with a Betty Crocker Easy Bake oven.

 
 

Won’t someone pity the man? He’s fasting because of what you did to his hate.

Seriously, if we can have hunger strikes for BS reasons, I’m starting a hunger strike to protest Tom Cruise still making movies. Tom, unless you commit suicide, my starvation will be on YOU.

 
 

From the Walter Williams column that D. N. Nation linked:

After all when it is settled by brute force that states cannot secede, as they thought they had the right to in 1787, then the federal government can ride roughshod over states and their people’s right — in a word make meaningless the Ninth and Tenth Amendments.

Needless to say, it is interesting to say the least that Confederate forces preparing to attack federal locations does not count as brute force.

It’s as if one minute some Mississippi Senator were kindly talking to his happy, states-right supporting slave, when all of a sudden out of nowhere arrogant Yankee troops rush in breaking the china and tearing up the Constitution in front of the poor Senator and his slave’s eyes.

Racists on a hunger strike, eh?

Somehow I imagine it’ll have less impact on their lives than a real hunger strike would – maybe they’ll just boycott “black” food like fried chicken.

Sort of like when all the wingnuts were boycotting French products, forgoing the French wine, cheese, and such.

 
 

These black columnists for right wingers really are just willing to say anything necessary to keep that sweet, sweet wingnut welfare coming in.

“Hmmm! I bet these crackers’d like another condemnation of Lincoln and the Civil War by a black man!!! Hell, that alone would keep the paycheck coming in for a year!”

 
 

Heh heh. Lisa Schiffren appears to have NO wikipedia entry. She’s that important.

Also, if your face is pocky, try bukkake

 
 

Yes, goodness gracious, I would have to go all the way to the center console of my car, pull out my Big Bill Broonzy CD and put it in the player before I could hear words like that.

There’s nothing I enjoy more than racist motherfuckers sitting in the federal penitentiary.

 
 

Not only that, who fired the first shot? No brute force there, none at all.

Walt Williams often tops his buddy Tom Sowell for pure batshit insanity/inanity. Back in 2005 and again last year, ol’ Walt had a column explaining how Franklin Pierce (??? !!!) was a great president because he refused federal aid for the mentally ill. This despite Franky’s near unanimous status as a lousy president and- dude, seriously, the mentally ill? Stay classy, Walt.

Where in the New Testament does it say you should swear an oath on the Bible? Where does it say you should even swear an oath?

But I say to you, make no oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, or by the earth, for it is the footstool of His feet, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King. Nor shall you make an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. But let your statement be, ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no’; anything beyond these is of evil.

I heard tell that Obama swore his second oath on a stack of gay-aborted babies. Well that may be good enough for you hateful Lefties, but the Constitution specifically says that the oath must be sworn by a White Man on a Bible – and anything else doesn’t count. It’s true, says so right in the Constitution.

The Bush hatred we are seeing in the media today belongs in the long catalogue of human psychopathology — not rational behavior. The latest version is the shoe-throwing incident in Iraq. Iraq happens to be a hot war zone, in which tens of thousands of innocent people have been killed by hidden bombs. Bush’s protective detail had no way of knowing whether an assassinaton attempt was under way, in just the way Saddam tried to assassinate George H.W. Bush, Sr. At the end of his two terms of office, the President flew to Iraq, into harm’s way, knowing the dangers, to hold an open press conference.

But our media harbor such bitter hatred for him that they turned a potential bomb-throwing incident — by one of their own — into a joke, just another reason to sneer at the President. If anybody threw a cream pie at Obama, screaming headlines would be launched for days afterward. Nothing but sneers followed the potential attack on George W. Bush, which he fended off with his usual grace and humor. I have never known a US president to be treated as disgracefully as this one. The political case against him is based almost entirely on media falsehoods, slanders, and greed for power. Not much rationality there.

Our public melodrama is therefore being driven, not by facts and reason, but by the most primitive emotions that prey on human minds. Human brains haven’t changed much in the last thirty thousand years. Homo sapiens is a lot more prosperous species than ever, but prosperity just allows those ancient demons to come out more freely. If we were huddled by a small fire in a cave, hungry and miserable, we could not indulge our fantasies as much as the pop media now allow themselves to do. Prosperity permits our primitive urges to flourish on the public stage.

Mr Wonderful,

not really on topic, but:

Yes, that’s what they’re called. In English, anyway. In one of the rare instances of German being poetic, the natives where I live call a dive a Schwalbe: a swallow, as in the bird that swoops and dives through the air.

For some odd reason the Italian Wikipedia lacks a page for the concept, perhaps because in Italy it is considered a synonym for calcio itself.

Here’s an item by Ms. Shit-grin, from February 2008.

Until I came across this article by Cliff Kincaid of Accuracy in Media, which I regard as factual — with all that that implies — the questions about Obama’s background that should have come naturally never quite rose to the surface of my mind. Barack Obama is the new man, of course. His mixed race is a symbol of that. Just like Tiger Woods — as we have read, endlessly. What’s to wonder about?

Yeah, what is to wonder about? We certainly are tired of hearing about Tiger Woods though.

Political correctness was invented precisely to prevent the mainstream liberal media from persuing [sic] the questions which might arise about how Senator Obama’s mother, from Kansas, came to marry an African graduate student. Love? Sure, why not? But what else was going on around them that made it feasible? Before readers level cheap accusations of racism — let’s recall that the very question of interracial marriage only became a big issue later in the 1960s. The notion of a large group of mixed race Americans became an issue during and after the Vietnam War. Even the civil-rights movement kept this culturally explosive matter at arm’s distance.

W. T. F? Does she mean it’s OK to “question,” or whatever she claims she’s doing, pre-“later in the 1960s” inter-“racial” marriage, because it wasn’t a “big, culturally explosive issue?”

(Wish there were a typing equivalent of Kristen Wiig doing that whole “Garrrghh!,” eye-rolling, semi-epileptic thing, ’cause that’s exactly what Shit-grin brings up in me.)

Paranoid, poo/pee fixated, totally hung up on “race” & communism.

Personal life? Right here.

Being a therapist & latching onto this one? Priceless. What kind of mental insurance does NRO have?

Maybe she was the one who told El Chimpo Padre’s buttboy Quayle to spell potato with an “e”.

 
 

This is the same kind of brilliant connections that Beavis and Butthead used to make. Eh eh.

 
 

the questions which might arise about how Senator Obama’s mother, from Kansas, came to marry an African graduate student.
Various answers arise to these postulated questions, including “Mind your own feckin’ business, you prurient-minded race-obsessed scumbag with a running sore for a soul.”

Funny thing, this “college”. I realize it’s a foreign concept, but you meet people from all walks of life.

Yeah, and it just got worse when those nanny-state liberal fagorts started forcing the colleges to bus people in from Africa.

…because everyone who tried it or even mentioned it approvingly earlier than that got lynched?

 
 

to prevent the mainstream liberal media from persuing [sic] the questions which might arise about how [X]’s mother… came to marry…
There was a happy time, long ago, when here in New Zealand we were spared a full-on saturation exposure to the minutiae of US presidential campaigning. As a result, I have no idea whether the relationship between Bill Clinton’s parents was the focus of media inquiry in 1992. Was it?
I like to think that if any mainstream-liberal-media pundits had pursued prurient, panty-sniffing questions about how Clinton’s mother came to marry his father — or more recently, questions about the exact nature of the relationship between McCain’s parents, or Bush’s — then they would have quickly reached the ignominious end of their career, with cries from all directions of “At long last, Sir, have you no shame?”

 
 

I can only assume that Sadly, No has hacked the NRO site and is proceeding with Phase MCMLXXXIII of Operation Make Them Look Stupider Than Zombies with Their Brains Sucked Out and Replaced with Inert Gel.

How much longer can the wingnut Stupid continue to expand before the universe explodes?* I mean really, is anyone really that dumb?**

* It should be noted that some scientists believe that the ever increasing inanity of right-wing dumbitude actually creates a void where knowledge and reason have been destroyed, leading to an eventual implosion of the universe. Either way it’s not good.
** Rhetorical question, I’ve been keeping score at home for a while.

 
 

Doktor Smut, since you ask, Clinton’s bio. father was a boozer, his mother re-married when Clinton was young, & other stuff, which I don’t remember. (‘Cause I never cared?)

Yes, we heard something about it. S’pose it’s just when someone less than patrician gets close to the office.

Christ, is Schiffren on drugs? Look at this:

Actually, this post is about Caroline Kennedy, who may or may not be depressed for whichever reason one chooses to believe was behind her withdrawal from contention for the NY Senate appointment: wasn’t going to get the job anyway, or Uncle Ted’s worsening health—or nanny and tax problems as it now seems.

I am quite gratified that our Park Avenue Princess will not be my Senator. First, because I always root for the underdog. I was really offended to see the accidental Governor Paterson, with no constituency or fund-raising apparatus of his own and a visible lack of intellectual ballast, get pushed around by the united Kennedy, Obama, and Bloomberg forces into annointing Ms. Kennedy.

Maybe Quayle was a smart guy with a lunatic speechwriter. Wow.

 
 

Um, well, I’m sure she’s fine with Fran Drescher instead.

 
 

Let me get this straight.

You have a guy who’s graduated from Harvard Law with a degree in Constitutional Law, a US Senator, and you want to question whether he’s qualified to serve in elected office because of the way his mother met his father?

In addition to the vile implication that children of mixed race couples have somehow “questionable” backgrounds, why is the family background even germane, if the person in question has managed to achieve success as an adult?

Shall we question the family background of other candidates? How did Tom Delay’s mom and dad meet up?

 
 

and you want to question whether he’s qualified
No, she wants other people to ask such questions for her. She interprets their failure to do so as a sign that they were held back by Political Correctness, rather than as evidence that her own mind is a cesspit seething with maggots and body parts.

 
 

I’ll be honest. “If’s brown flush it down, if it’s yellow let it mellow” was the first thing I though of during that bennediction and made me cringe.

 
 

OK.

[Rubbing temples very hard, squinting into the distance.]

OK. Um. OK.

OK, I think I’ve got it. I think she’s saying either that the President’s family of origin were associated with enough Communist political activity that his parents might actually have had Communist leanings, as was common among mixed-race couples in the late 1950s and early 1960s [cite needed], or the President is the result of a secret eugenics program aimed at creating the man who would assume the Presidency half a century from the beginning of the program, because why else would his parents have ever gotten to the first date?

Personally, I prefer the SpecFic version: it’s ever so romaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaantic!

 
 

I was trying to imagine my own reaction if I accidentally happened to run for some public office, and a noddy like Schiffren thought it was relevant to speculate about the motivations of my English mother (from a good Home-Counties family) when she came to NZ and met her Danish farm-boy husband.
Especially if the noddy followed that passive-aggressive, plausible-deniability style of “I am too classy myself to raise this question, but it speaks volumes that no-one in the media is asking…”.

Voices would be raised.

 
 

Shall we question the family background of other candidates? How did Tom Delay’s mom and dad meet up?

DO. NOT. WANT.

 
 

Smut and g: abso-fucking-lutely. Who gives a tinker’s cuss how one’s parents met, or what they did? Surely, and I realise I’m being laughably old-fashioned here, surely a person’s fitness to perform the office is the only relevant question?

Although that fitness does necessarily include whether or not one is fond of Islamocommiefascist arugula. That’s important.

I’d say that’s a long way to go for a blind date.

 
 

The details of my parents’ relationship will remain private until I finish the job of turning it into a script for a romantic movie.
