It really shouldn’t be a surprise, I suppose, that Barack Obama’s run for the presidency is bringing out innate racism of so many right-wingers these days. After all, so many of them have had to suppress their Inner Theodore Bilbo for so many years now, it’s bound to come squirming out when given the opportunity — and nothing draws them out like liberal blacks running for political office. Making it the presidency drives them into another sphere altogether.

So sceams Dave Neiwert.

Well, about that, Dave, tell me how Obama, with the very limited, and very questionable record he has, would be getting the support he’s getting from the Democrats if he were NOT black. Put another way, change Obama’s skin color to white and tell me he’d be getting the support he is. You KNOW he would NOT be.  Tell me how he’s not getting large support simply because of the color of his skin. Tell me how more qualified people are not getting passed up based on that ONE FACTOR.

And tell me again, who the race zombies are.
