Al Barger is banned

This comment

I don't have much of a "race problem." I think I'm fairly straight on these issues, other than having to fend off the occassional bit of nonsense from some particular black person who insists on trying to inflict their personal patholgies off on me.

On the other hand, I don't particularly expect a merit badge for this. It's easier for me to be straight on this than it is for you - my people in my grandparents' generation weren't swinging from the trees.

Is an unacceptable comment from a racist pig.

An unacceptable racist pig that's running for the US Senate as a Libertarian.

Tell me again how racism isn't a problem.

LATER: I added a link to the post in which this foulness appeared. And I edited out Barger's URL.

But I kept his IP.

Do you have a link to this Barger quote?

Thanks

What an animal! So much for his declaration that he doesn't have 'much of a "race problem."' The only individual with personal pathologies in sight that I can see is "Al Barger" himself.

Have you thought about pointing out Barger's disgusting post to his fellow contributors to Blogcritics? Let's see if they still consider him to be "a man of intelligence, integrity, openness and curiosity, and humor" after they get a hold of his comments ...

Steve:

By coincidence it is on this very blog.

Abiola:

I believe they know already. I'm a member, though it's been about a month since I posted there, and I've read their mailing list. Barger was recently required to apologize to Mac Diva for calling her a cunt in Blogcritics' comments.

The post DOES ping the Blogcritics post wherein Barger's candidacy is celebrated, though.

What REALLY amazes me is that he was stupid enough to write that in a post with his name and blog in the title. One google search on his name and it ought to pop right up.
