One thing I've never seen is a bigot cite actual racism as a defense against their own racism. Enter the bizarre case of Barbara Espinosa, a right-wing radio host in Arizona who said the following of Barack Obama:
"I don't believe in calling him the first black president," she said, "I voted for the white guy myself. I call him a monkey."
the right is showing their real colors now that they have a single target, we only hear it in relation to the Pres. but it is so profane it's IMO not completely digested by those on the progressive bench the other's it is just another day at the____you fill in that one.
these other's clearly are satisfied with a gov't not of "them the people", but populated by those who are setting the schedule for the coordinated time in the barrel their base will have right along side us. howdy neighbor!
we the people of color have never been mistaken of it's existence. some hibernated, other's were relegated to coded buzz words. but i think that their real test of how much they can get away with of their racist agenda, was when hate Representative Joe Wilson shout at the Pres.'s speech on healthcare, "you lie" the entire right wing was giddy almost to peeing their pants, can't imagine the high five's and #1 finger waving in their closed door "victory"?
