Joe Just Said Something Profound |
|
He asked Peggy Noonan to talk about "Patriotic Grace" and how every American can celebrate tonight with an Obama Win. What does it mean for a country that at one point wouldn't allow African Americans to eat at the same table as white Americans. Speak to my mother and tell them what this means.
The best part is that he interrupted Noonan who was about to rain on the "Liberal victory" by questioning how long "liberals would reign".

1. Again, people get a sense of affirmation about themselves by voting for Obama they don't get.- |
|
by voting for other candidates.
It's the first chance a lot of folks have had to vote for a black candidate.

2. questioning how long "liberals would reign" ... about as long as it takes |
|
for the American people to forget how badly the Repukes fucked the country up ...
Last time it was like this, it took from 1929 to the 50s ...

3. For the record, I never disallowed African Americans to eat at the same table as white Americans |
|
Well, except for that Milton guy once in 5th grade, but that wasn't about race

5. I am a little confounded by racism |
|
I grew up in an integrated town, went to an integrated public HS, played on sports teams my whole youth & adolescence w/ blacks & Hispanics, went to a large public university. Racists to me are like something from another planet.
