Herman Cain: Not in dispute - the damage control has been amateur |
|
-surprising for a man supposed to be backed by the Koch Bros.
I do not dispute that a man who denies AA prejudice, who does not identify as AA, has said a lot of offensive things.
Some may take perverse enjoyment that the well oiled gun of a racist narrative has been aimed at a man who denies it exists.
Nevertheless comments that Cain put on a minstrel show, so he deserves whatever - WHATEVER he gets are ... (you choose a word).
But to deny the M$M tap into an stereotype to give sizzle to a story is colorblind.
And colorblind is not, and has never been, the United States of America.
The KKK protecting white women in Birth of Nation, and Woodrow Wilson said nothing?
All hail the glorious history of this magnificent Democratic President and the Dixiecrats.
If Rove aimed the gun, he knew full well the logistics:
Race. Ask John McCain.
