A photo from the White House’s flickr page, spotted by Cuffy, is the most obvious Photoshop-fodder I’ve seen in some time. (I’m going to keep updating this as I have time. Oh, and please send ideas if you have them.)

UPDATE (1/28): A great idea from the AR15.com message boards:

“As long as the roots are not severed, all is well. And all will be well in the garden.”

Jimmy Carter describing his opposition to government programs “to inject black families into a white neighborhood just to create some sort of integration”:

I have nothing against a community that is made up of people who are Polish, or who are Czechoslovakians, or who are French Canadians or who are blacks trying to maintain the ethnic purity of their neighborhoods. This is a natural inclination.

From Time Magazine, 1976. H/T Mike B.

UPDATE: More on Carter’s own record on race from NewsReal:

Carter campaigned for governor of Georgia as a self-proclaimed “redneck,” in an era when that word had pronounced racial connotations. His campaign distributed a photo of his gubernatorial opponent Carl Sanders being embraced by black basketball players to a Ku Klux Klan rally. Carter pledged to invite Alabama’s infamous segregationist governor George Wallace to Georgia if elected. He once said he was “proud” to have the equally segregationist Lester Maddox as his lieutenant governor following the 1970 election, calling Governor Axe-handle “the essence of the Democratic Party” (which he was).

Jimmy Carter needs something more constructive to do with his retirement years.  My solution?  Give him a cardboard box full of adorable bunnies and tell him that if he keeps them alive, it will solve hunger and global warming within the year.  Maybe that will keep him away from Hugo Chavez and issues like racism.

Jimmy Carter says that an “overwhelming portion” of the protests is motivated by racism.

A question: where were all these insanely, murderously racist people during Obama’s campaign, the election, the transition, the inauguration and the first several months of his presidency?

Does it really defy the imagination of Jimmy Carter, Maureen Dowd, Keith Olbermann, Lawrence O’Donnell, et al. that any of these protesters are genuinely worried about public policy?

Or is this some new species of racism that lies dormant before seizing upon the minds of conservatives when private healthcare is threatened?
