May each of you have the heart to conceive, the understanding to direct, and the hand to execute works that will leave the world a little better for your having been here. -- Ronald Reagan

Glad We Live in a Post Racial America VI

Here's how the "The Nation" (uber leftist mag) saw the Washington DC march; written by editor and publisher Katrina vanden Heuvel: "Just days ago, Glenn Beck led the astro-turf 9-12-09 "Taxpayer March on DC." Compared to the millions who have marched for civil rights, equal rights, and gay rights, and against the war, Beck's 70,000 would be small stuff -- except for the tens of thousands waving Confederate flags, anti-gay hate signs, and shouting "White Power!'"

If thousands of people were running around with Confederate flags, you know the Statist Obama worshiping MSM would be showing it 24/7. They can't, because it didn't happen. If there was a proliferation of anti-gay signs, the MSM would be running it 24/7. They can't, because it didn't happen. If thousands of people were chanting 'white power' the MSM would be running 24/7. They can't, because it didn't happen.

And this gem, "...increasingly dangerous, racist and radical right wing."

Want responsible economic policies? You're a racist. Don't want gov't run health care, you're a racist. Don't want the gov't running insurance companies, banks and auto companies? You're a racist. Sure glad we live in a post racial Amerika.

This past Sunday, George Will on "This Week": "What we’re hearing is the liberals’ McCarthyism, which is, when in doubt, blame people for racism. Litigators have an old argument: When the law’s on your side, argue the law. When the facts are on your side, argue the facts. When neither’s on your side, pound the table. This amounts to pounding the table.

I have yet to see evidence, is there -- does evidence even intrude in this conversation? Is there any evidence that these people are racists? I think not."
