Not to worry, Sally Kern has a book available at Christian bookstores, The Stoning of Sally Kern. Seems they had poor aim. We need better Stoners.
"Homosexuality is worse than terrorism!" Sally Kern
It must have been in a naive Kumbayah moment when Rachel Maddow said that You can’t be in mainstream politics and be ‘overtly’ racist. Like most people, Maddow thought that the crazy/dangerous racists only chummed in the shallow water with the fringe element. Grimly, Rachel Maddow admits that she was wrong. We’ve gone so far backward, that white supremacists are very much front and center in mainstream politics.
When you watch Representative Sally Kern in the process of banning affirmative action, it may make your blood run cold just as it did mine. Nothing that anyone could say would bring this evil ugliness home quite like seeing and hearing Kern demeaning an entire group of Americans with lies dressed as statistics, and wearing the invisible white sheet of the KKK as she turns back the hands of time in this country.
But you know some get a free ride for saying the same racist swill. Here are some quotes for King of the Clowns, Ron Paul:
"Opinion polls consistently show that only about 5 percent of blacks have sensible political opinions."
"I think we can safely assume that 95 percent of the black males in that city [Washington DC] are semi-criminal or entirely criminal."
“We don’t think a child of 13 should be held responsible as a man of 23. That’s true for most people but black males."
"As it was written I would vote against the Civil Rights Act of 1964."
And to top it off to make no mistake Ron Paul is a rabid Pro Life evangelical Christian Fundamentalist and creationist (which is the driving force of this kind of bigotry)
"I think it (evolution) is a theory and I do not accept it."
