This Der Spiegel story tells us that, while most of the world has extended good wishes to President-Elect Barack Obama, there are some individuals who need to emerge from the dark ages, you might say…
(Veteran Austrian television personality Klaus Emmerich spoke) a string of blatantly racist remarks regarding the election of Barack Obama in the US. Speaking on a talk show on the Austrian public channel ORF on Wednesday, he said: "I wouldn't want the Western world to be directed by a black man. When you say that is a racist remark: right, without a doubt."So what did this genius do when he was given the opportunity to climb out of his hole, you might say? Why, he just went on digging, of course…
Americans are "racists, now as before, and it must be going very badly for them that they so convincingly ... send a black man, and a black, very good-looking woman, into the White House," he said.
…Emmerich himself voiced no regret. On the contrary, he even took a harder line in subsequent interviews. Obama's victory was an "extremely disconcerting development" he told the Austrian Standard on Wednesday, because "blacks aren't as politically civilized." Meanwhile, he told Die Presse in an interview published on Friday that Obama has "a devil-like talent to present his rhetoric so effectively."Yep, dat sho ‘nuff be it; we all jus’ gave it up to dat "devil-like" jungle rhythm!
Good God…
Well, at least Emmerich has now assured himself of a viable career with Fox Noise, as opposed to a respectable news organization (Roger Ailes and his demented shouters being primarily responsible for this).
