Racist sock puppets from Utah.


Thanks Tim, for this story from the Salt Lake Tribune today.  He said it was blog-tastic and boy was he right.

I am not sure what is going on with West Jordan lately.  I promise, not all the people there are racist.  But it does make me wonder if these people are related to that hammerheaded oaf, Senator Chris Buttars.  

In effort to save those of you that might actually be racist money, I give you the instructions on how to build your own racist Barrack Obama sock puppet.


1.  Grow up in a West Jordan bubble in which you never see a person of color.  
2. Put a sock on your hand so that your fingers and thumb are in the toe and the back of the wrist is in the heel.
3. Watch a lot of Mel Gibson movies.
4. Make a slit in the sock between your thumb and your fingers.
5. Attach a confederate flag onto your four wheeler.  
6. Cut an oval 3 inches long and 3 inches across. 
7.  Buy a couple of long, pointed white hats that go over your face.
8. Glue two ovals together in the mouth portion of the sock.
9. Completely shave your head.
10. Sew two buttons onto your sock for eyes.
11. Travel your neighborhood and leave hate pamphlets on people's doorsteps.
12. Color your sock so it looks like a completely racist epithetical symbol.
13. Be a complete Jackass!

Blog-tastic! My favorite part of their explanation letter is: "We guess there is an element of naivete on our part, in that we don't think in terms of myths, fables, fairy tales and folk lore," the letter read. "We wonder now if this might be a great opportunity to take this moment to really try and transcend still existing racial biases."

I'm curious as to which myths, fables, fairy tales and folk lore they're referring to: slavery or the Halocaust.
