Time for a Great Reckoning

Rebecca Curtis’s article and the ensuing comments (see posting below) got me thinking. I’m a white Latina, an over-40 woman and a Jew. That makes me a quadruple threat as far as the Obama campaign and their amen corner of bounty hunters, their antennae a-quiver as they smoke out racists from every corner, are concerned. According to their rationale I’m so damn racist I need to be fitted for a hood I fit into four categories Obama is having trouble with and need to be “persuaded”. Or maybe I just need a good old-fashioned exorcism. Paging Bobby Jindal!
Hey, I figured we could use a good laugh. Let’s not forget the scary kooks on the other side of the divide.
But seriously, you don’t win people over by insulting them. The term “racist” has lost all its meaning thanks to these clowns with their hair-trigger, hysterical reaction to those who criticize their man.
