I liked the picture of Obama at the wailing wall. A long way from his Muslim village relatives. But who needs them in Washington right.

I am not sure how the insult “house negro” is racist, given that it is a term used by people of color to describe Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice or former Secretary of State Powell in the past. Furthermore, al-Zawahiri described Malcolm X as an “honorable black American” in the preceding line; not exactly a quotation from a racist diatribe.

If your (hopefully feigned) outrage means you think al Qaeda does not share your high hopes for the beloved President-elect Obama, you might be right… You did not support W's “War on Terror,” but I am certain that you will support Obama's “War on Racism.” I rate your comment as “double-plus good.”

"Who would have known that electing a black president also turns out to have an information-operations component as a bonus? We should want to publicize, far and wide, that Zawahiri is a racist."

Conservatives already knew vermin like Zawahiri was a racist. Where the hell have the liberals been?

Get a clue, Ackerman.

al-Zawahiri discredits his complaint of US corruption and greed with a tired racial slur that doesn't apply (now “Uncle Tom” might've worked …). Regardless, that the term came from the USA doesn't make it less derogatory. And since the list of “house negros” doesn't include white folk, it's not allegorical. It's racist. Sorry, munich, you don't get to tag the Jews for this one.
