Nothing like fixing the blame early on, huh?

Racism exists as a powerful force in this country because of simple-minded, head-in-the-sand fools who give power to people and notions that should be stripped of all power! I can recall back when I was in university, and the KKK was planning a rally at a nearby site. "What should we do?" was the question. "Ignore them" was one oft-repeated suggestion. No media coverage, no attending just to check it out or stage a counter-protest, no anything. Just ignore the pig-heads. Unfortunately, cooler heads did not prevail, and it all got blown up into a bigger issue. The Klan got the attention they wanted.

The Democrat party thrives on this. Their lifeblood is painting all of society's members as victims. They preen, they pose, they marginalize and speak down to us all... especially the non-white. The party makes it quite clear: without us white people who care for your poor, unfortunate souls, all your suffering minorities would get nowhere. Gee, thanks a lot whitey!!

Does that mean that the Republican party is better? Hell, no! In principle, I'd say yes. But I haven't seen very many Republicans follow their principles lately. And they do tend to be class-ists. For anybody who hasn't been paying attention, economic and social class is the issue in America, not race.

All these whiners ready to throw in the towel and blame The Man.... Already rallying the troops so you all can have someone to blame if you loose. Oh, yeah - real inspiring!!!

On the other side of the hall, I just learned that John McCain is a big (shudder) ABBA fan! Now I've never been a single-issue voter type of guy, but this debacle could change everything......
