wife's
let's get right in on SE we don't talk about Richard go on much because he's
just a really bad columnist
and supposedly the liberal columnist at the washington post but he's just now it
sort of just
I don't know he's crossed the rubicon many times before but
today is just stunning writing about chris Christie's Tea Party problem
a stance Ubly well just did the
the the pieces just garbage from the beginning
the day after chris Christie the
cuddly moderate conservative for stop
cuddly moderate
now I
on on neither accord but let's jump down to where he's talking about
how the Tea Party he's out of step with the Tea Party and we're not clear why I
really in this piece
he goes on to say today's GOP is not races
as Harold harry belafonte alleged about the Tea Party I don't know why Harry
Belafonte a
is the one he chooses to allege about the Tea Party
are he could just a pointed to studies that show that
yes a bass number of them hold racist views
because I'm but it is true deeply troubled
about the expansion of government about immigration
I wonder why about immigration them about secularism
about the mainstreaming above what used to be the %uh armand guard
people with
conventional views must repress
a gag reflex when considering the mayor elective New York
a white man married to a black woman
and with to biracial children
should I mention missus parenthetical
that Bill de Blasio as wife sure lame mcrae
used to be a lesbian the
of my god this family represents the cultural changes that have
enveloped parts but not all America
to cultural conservatives this doesn't look like their country at all
I don't know that I really need to comment on this
but just in case you don't have a dictionary
conventional means
based on or in accordance with what is generally done or believed
by no definition is it
conventional lot to gag get the idea of the Bahai racial marriage
or that they could have biracial children
hey eighty percent of the pot up this country
has no problem with biracial marriage be
the president of the united states is a product
I'll be a biracial marriage he is one of those biracial
for children see let me just suggest you
that by any standard if you gag
at the notion of a biracial marriage
that seems to be all you need to suggest that someone might be a racist
and the idea that someone
was a lesbian my gosh
and many goes over i mean
the rest the piece shows how out of touch he is with the
he'd taken the internet highway
to find out about what's going on in Iowa
okay so he's 97 years old in
just tuning in to the Internet because I'd say has with dixiecrats
dixiecrats incidentally was a subset
the Democratic Party that existed over
fifty years ago
to basically to preserve I
segregation or in other words to preserve the rights racists
the fight is not over a particular program although Obamacare calms
but about a Teutonic shift in attitudes
I think Dennis J Goldford professor politics and international relations at
Drake University in Des Moines
for leading me till do a live performance on YouTube
a Merle Haggard singing are the good times really over
I thank God for professors
who can point out to her videos on YouTube
this chess not a lament for a lost America has been viewed by well over
then two million times
wow that's only like a hundred million times less
then the one with the kid in the back seat come back from the dentist
I this is a cried for help
from someone who clearly wants to go into
early or perhaps extremely late
retirement Richard Cohen
I hope we barely knew you
