Another Milepost On The Road To Oblivion

Oh, and speaking of the broken wasteland Breitbart left behind, there's now this:

On his program Thursday, Fox News’ Sean Hannity spoke with Steve Bannon (producer of The Undefeated, among various other films) about a series of tapes Andrew Breitbart claimed to have about Barack Obama. Breitbart mentioned the tapes during his recent CPAC speech, sharing that “[w]e are going to vet [Barack Obama] from his college days to show you why racial division and class warfare are central to what hope and change was sold in 2008.”

Bannon confirmed that there exists a series of tapes taken during Obama’s time at Harvard, which will be publicly released “in a week or two.” Breitbart has been “very systematic about going through this thing,” Bannon added.

This "Obama is the other" circus, including the endless Birther controversy, was gearing up for months of brutal, racist attacks on the President.  It's the only way the GOP can win in 2012 and they know it.  They don't want to talk about the issues.  They want to talk about how America has fallen into such an awful state that one of them is now running for re-election.  That's why we're re-fighting affirmative action, birth control, voter suppression and whether or not government should exist:  because if America can elect one of them President, then the society that allowed such a sin clearly must be dismantled to the point it can never happen again.

Those who allowed Barack Obama to become President must be punished.  All those people.  That's why the GOP is no longer talking about jobs and the economy.

"What do we really know about that one?" is the new, old dog whistle.  Breitbart and his ilk thrived in that fecal matter.  His legacy is the 2012 election season.  Because after all, it's not like anyone ever really looked into President Obama's past, right?
