Ralph Nader: Will Obama be an 'Uncle Tom'?
Politics Daily — Filed under: Democrats, Barack Obama, Ralph NaderRalph Nader's legacy has been in steady decline for some time. From consumer advocate, to presidential spoiler, to irrelevant windbag, Nader seems to be playing a game of limbo when it comes to public approval. Just how low can he go? Well, last night the stick may have just come crashing down for good. Here's his interview with FOX News' Shep Smith: Thanks for all you've done, Ralf. Seat belts, check. Airbags, check. Good stuff. But we'll take it from here. You get some ...

"Really? Ralph Nader, what was that?"
All — Ralph Nader calls Obama a possible "Uncle Tom." No, I'm not joking:

Character-is-destiny Dep't: Michael Moore and Joe Lieberman
The RBC — [image] Character-is-destiny Dep't: Michael Moore and Joe Lieberman There are some problems even Barack Obama will be unable to solve, because they are woven into the fabric of the universe. .com/words/message/">.com/words/message/">Michael Moore's self-righteous intellectual dishonesty is one of them. Joe Lieberman's smarmy rottenness is another. Never before in our history has an avowed anti-war candidate been elected president during a time of war. I hope President-elect Obama remembers that as he considers expanding the war in Afghanistan. The faith we now have will be lost if he forgets the main issue on which he beat his fellow Dems ...

Shep Smith vs Ralph Nader
The Daily Dish | By Andrew Sullivan — Can you believe that Ralph Nader used the phrase "Uncle Tom" to describe Obama last night? Shep Smith couldn't. And he showed again he's the only reason to still watch and respect Fox News.

You won't go and say goodbye
SteveAudio — Uncle Tom? Uncle FUCKING Tom? Ralph: Sit down, shut up. Listen. You may have been relevant once, although you were wrong about the Corvair. But you just stepped in your own shit, and now, finally you own your shit. No, be quiet. Just STFU and listen. No one likes you. No one has any respect for you. You're a narcissistic idiot with dreams of grandeur. Look in the punchbowl, Ralphie boy. See that turd? That's you. You may be right about Obama being a corporate suckup, but if the contents of your own portfolio are any indication, so are ...

Watch: Nader Sorta Calls Obama "Uncle Tom"
The Latest on Air America — Okay this is more or less shocking even if Fox News ruins it a little with their mock shock and new lefty credo. Shepard Smith was not having any of Nader's anti-corporate mumbo-jumbo. Watch the interchange here after the jump.

Nader: Will Obama be an Uncle Tom?
Hot Air » Top Picks — Nader: Will Obama be an Uncle Tom? posted at 3:30 pm on November 5, 2008 by Ed Morrissey Send to a Friend | printer-friendly This doesn’t exactly qualify as a shocking statement any more from the self-appointed Arbiter of Black Authenticity , but at least last time , Ralph Nader didn’t utter the phrase “Uncle Tom”. When Shepherd Smith scolds him for using the race-baiting term, Nader tries playing the victim by calling Smith a “bully”: I don’t blame Shep for going after Nader on this point. Had anyone else used that derogatory term on Fox, there would have been a hailstorm of recrimination. Barack Obama hasn’t even taken office yet, and Nader ...

Ralph Nader Ponders if Barack Obama Will be an "Uncle Sam" or "Uncle Tom"
Ace of Spades HQ — Ralph Nader Ponders if Barack Obama Will be an "Uncle Sam" or "Uncle Tom" Well, here's the thing: Although the hard left certainly won't slur him to the extent they slur Michael Steele or Clarence Thomas (or Michelle Malkin, for that matter, an Asian woman who doesn't know her proper place), Obama has created fantastical expectations of wealth redistribution -- and free government gas, and free government houses -- in the left-leaning share-the-wealth sectors of America, especially among minorities. So this will be only the first time he's called an Uncle Tom. Hopefully. Because the only way to avoid the slur is to go whole-hog for share-the-wealth and racial reparations. ...
