A stupid bar owner, known for his racially charged publicity stunts, has handed Obama and the Statist Media a precious gift.
Patrick Lanzo, a proud pot smoker, put up a sign that reads "Obama's plan for health-care: N*&%*r rig it."
Brilliant.
This story will be used as "proof" that opposition to ObamaCare is based on bigotry and racism.
The impact of this one ignorant fool will outweigh the hard work that so many of us have put into this effort. We toil away day and night, doing everything we can to stop the Democrats' disastrous health care plan, but most of us will never influence the debate to the extent that this idiot has...
VERY depressing.

Yet there are two black people in the picture. That makes the whole situation a bit confusing doesn't it?
Anon: Nobody can read the man's mind, but his antics certainly aren't helpful.
Nigger rig was a very common term used in Texas all the years I lived there. It was not really intended to be derogatory to black people. It actually celebrated the ingenuity of black people.
Everyone I knew, including black people, used the term and saw nothing amiss.
We live in a culture of hyper-sensibility where everyone is insulted by everything.
I'm Italian and don't run around all up in arms over Mafia or other Italian jokes.
And I might add that the racism in my home state of Minnesota (home to the hugest group of Yuppies, evah!) is way worse than I ever saw in the south.
Adrienne: True...southerners and conservatives certainly don't have the market cornered on bigotry, but libs just LOVE this kind of story. They've been scouring the country for months looking for this one.
Patrick Lanzo isn't at all ignorant of what he's doing. He's a member of the KKK, he lets the Klan use his restaurant's lawn for their BBQs. You turned a blind eye while racists and secessionists gained a foothold in your party and your movement, either because you thought we were exaggerating or you thought you could get away with using them without harm to yourselves. Now you're going to have to pay the price for your poor decisions. You sowed the wind, now reap the whirlwind.
scalefree: Well...of course you can say that because there is no racism or extremism of any kind on the left, and if there were any, you certainly wouldn't tolerate it.
I live in Wisconsin, and IMHO the n word is never acceptable.
This picture makes you wonder if the sign was put up by supporters of health overhaul to discredit critics.
I am beyond this whole race thing. Everyone needs to take their sensitivity pill and chill.
CJ, I reside in Wisconsin and have done so for 23 of the 37 years that I have been alive. Racist terminology is alive and well here in Wisconsin, everything from polack to nigger.
Just to let ya'll know, when you use the prhase "N Word", might as well just say "nigger" cause we all know what you mean.

Yep, not helping, and just plain stupid.
And while I call them stupid, I will also say he has a right to state his opinion - again even if it is as stupid as the one he stated.
