Little White Sambo

It’s quite alright for leftist bloggers to reference ugly racial imagery when it suits their party cause. I mean, clearly, it’s perfectly within their rights, because they also bear the same skin tone as the person they are racially lampooning. It’s the height of ludicrousness to think otherwise.
So I’m assuming this picture of Arnold as “Little Whitey Sambo” won’t raise any hackles. I was thinking of going with the Nazi theme, but I just like the name “Sambo” so much, I had to use it. It reminds me of this time I read this story about this kid named “Little Black Sambo” and he had to get some butter for some pancakes his Aunt Jemima made for him, but he got chased around this tree by a bunch of tigers, but then the tigers started eating each other and then they went around the tree so fast they turned into butter. Then Little Black Sambo had all the butter he could eat for his wheat germ pancakes.
Mmmmm, them’s good eatin’.
See, if Arnold was a huge black man, I couldn’t call him “Little Black Sambo” because not only would it be inaccurate, it would be racially insensitive. But, since he is a white man with a funny accent, I can call him whatever racially insensitive thing I want, and because I’m a right-wing blogger, my views are unquestionable.
In conclusion, if you are upset at a gubernatorial or senatorial candidate because he has betrayed you and your kind (read: abandoned your peoples, you know, racially), then it’s okay to call them Sambo (or some variation thereof). But only if they’re your colour. And only if you’re (not) a racist.
