re: #497 Killgore Trout

Not really. Watch the video. It’s very clear that he’s talking about the Republican characterizations of social welfare programs. Glenn Beck, Michelle Malkin, et al repeatedly claim that social welfare programs are a seekrit socialist plot to redistribute wealth. It’s a common talking point. Attacking that talking point is not racist. He’s pointing out the racist talking points often used by opponents of social welfare programs.

That’s the kind of thing these morons specialize in — latching onto statements taken completely out of context, and screaming about how outrageous they are.

It’s really getting tedious. They do it every single chance they get.
