Endemic Conservative Racism

“In 2000 Al Gore would have won if he had received any Southern electoral votes. In 2004 Bush again won 100 percent of the South’s electoral votes.” George Will, Neo Confederate Wimp.
So it goes that if Cowboy George can get one more Supreme Court nomination, then for the next generation all Supreme Court decisions will side with the old mantra of “States’ rights yesterday, states ‘ rights today, and states’ rights forever!” And anyone who does not understand the impetus behind that, is living in La La Land. The same Land where live anyone who believes a Black man can become President. The math will move beyond reason and the GOP will get 155% of the South.I recall this coming up on a personal basis down here in Dumbass sometime before there were Blockbusters. I drove down to our little mom and pop video store on the corner. I wandered around visiting with Pop who was also a personal friend. Not seeing the title I was looking for I asked him if he had “Do the Right Thing.” Pop, told me that racist movies would not be found in his store. I explain that it was not a "racist" movie but a movie “about” racism. He told me it was about trouble making Blacks racists. Had he seen the movie? No, he had heard about it and knew the director was a trouble making Black racist. In that two minute encounter, I understood Pop was a racist. A real racist, just like you know it from reading those few sentences. But you can’t say it, at least not down here in Dumbass.

This accepted racism permeates the land, the keywords vary little; Jesse Jackson, Spike Lee, Jackson-Sharpton, Farahkan and even Belafonte and Whoopie. You can hear it all day on Am talk radio, read it constantly in letters to the editors of local papers and I hear it a lot at keg parties. It’s the new “accepted” form of the same racism at play since we declared Blacks 3/5ths human in 1789. There is not one nanosmidgen of doubt that those who dwell on these sound bites and “states’ rights” mantras are racists. You know it, I know it and they know it. And for a generation any comment upon that truth from any newspaper, TV show, radio program, magazine, on the internet or at a keg party is loudly reviled as liberal Nazi political correctness worse than anything Joe McCarthy ever dreamed of. And it has worked so well I am still standing all agape at the tap here.
So what to do? I say let them eat their state cake. Allow this states’ rights crap to run its course until enough people have immigrated and emigrated North and South for reasons of individual freedom, and once they are all in one kudzu covered area, KICK THERE SORRY ASSES ALL OVER AGAIN!
