One cultural reference deserves another. I savored the title of Rich Lowry's column at NRO, entitled, "Bonfire of the Democrats".
Lowry amplifies a theme I posted on earlier--the Democrats falling off the post-racial wagon into a weeks-long drunk of special pleading, self-pity, indignation and race-paranoia.
In one of his sputtering-mad “special comments” usually devoted to damning President Bush to hell, Keith Olbermann of MSNBC accused Geraldine Ferraro of employing the “vocabulary of David Duke,” and of “insidious racism that is at least two decades old.” Back in the glory days of liberaldom, this would have been like Edward R. Murrow calling Eleanor Roosevelt a fascist — in other words, utter madness.
Read it all.
