Michael Tomasky over at the Daily Beast has written a post where he calls Mitt Romney some pretty unsavory names after the candidate gave a speech yesterday to the NAACP. Here’s what he called Romney:

I think of him as a spineless, disingenuous, supercilious, race-mongering pyromaniac who is very poorly intentioned indeed and woe to us if this man sets foot in the White House as anything but a tourist.

One of his biggest issues was Romney’s use of the word ‘Obamacare.” He was very unhappy with that and had this to say:

 You don’t go into the NAACP and use the word “Obamacare” and think that you’re not going to hear some boos. It’s a heavily loaded word, and Romney and his people know very well that liberals and the president’s supporters consider it an insult.

He even goes on to say that President Obama campaigned in 2008 without using “such loaded phrases he and his speechwriters knew would piss off his audience.”

OK, so ‘Obamacare’ is  heavily loaded word, Romney knew it would piss people off, and now Tomasky has decided that makes Romney a racebaiter. Fair enough.

Since I’m a helpful guy I wanted to help Tomasky out and give him a tip on another person who uses that heavily loaded, insulting, and racebaiting term ‘Obamacare” so he can write another post and also point out their insensitive racebaiting. Here goes:

 And just in case that was a typo or something, there’s also this:

At a fundraiser at the Tyler Perry studios in Atlanta last week, Obama also used the term and said he doesn’t mind it because it shows he “does care.”

“Change is, yes, health care reform,” Obama said to applause. “You want to call it Obamacare — that’s okay, because I do care.”

I await Tomasky’s post calling out this ‘racebaiter’ for using this horrible, insulting, racebaiting word.

P.S. My Friend @keder points out that Democrats find Obamacare so insulting they give out free “I Love Obamacare” stickers in exchange for your personal information.

You should go read @TPCarney‘s post for more examples of those who use this ‘outrageous’ term.

    It’s like the “N” word. Obama can say it, Romney can’t.

    One small difference: in Tyler Perry’s use of the term, the connotation was markedly different. Through rhetoric, he took what has become a slur and expressed it positively, without the patrician condescension used by the tone-deaf replicant you guys chose to run for president. Tommy, you call yourself a writer, do you? You’re not even a convincing reader.
