Conservative Author Uses Racist "Chris Rock Voice" to Threaten and Slur Steny Hoyer

Actually it's Jason Mattera using his normal voice, and not threatening or slurring anyone. Mattera was reported by the NYT as using a "Chris Rock" black voice while giving a speech. Which was actually his normal, Brooklyn-accented speaking voice.

To the NYT, then, any regional accent apparently reads "black." Why does the NYT think that anyone who "talks funny" must be black?

Here he accosts Steny Hoyer with his "Dominican gang-banger holding up a gas station" voice.

Notice the way he says some of his words -- he sounds menacingly ethnic, like a Jamaican blademan violating the restraining order his common-law wife took out on him after a heated dispute over dividing the assets of their bling distributorship.

Jason Mattera wrote the just-released Obama Zombies: How the Liberal Machine Brainwashed My Generation, which I'm reading right now and will be reviewing shortly.

It's good. But I have one complaint: Much of the book is written in his "Ike Turner" literary style, however, and at least nine of the chapters obsess over how much time Tina is spending with Berry Gordy. And his manner of inspiring conservatives often consists of nothing but "Start getting your choreography right or I'ma gonna break your ankles with a tire iron." And then he breaks down, apparently in tears, begging forgiveness and promising "I'll never do that again, baby. I just love you so much my hands ball into little valentine-fists."

But, apart from that, and the unending credit-grabbing for the arrangement of "Proud Mary," it's recommended.
