re: #751 Charles

Those of you insisting there is no racist motive behind this: there has been a concerted effort to delegitimize Thurgood Marshall from the right. It didn’t just start yesterday. As the first black justice on the Supreme Court, he is a constant target of right wing racists, like the ones at Stormfront that I linked in my post. And Jon Kyl, one of the main GOP attack dogs at the Kagan hearing, has very long history of race-baiting.

Yes, this is coming from racism. Sorry. I know you don’t like to hear it. Every time racism in the GOP is pointed out, we hear a chorus of denial, and I mean every single time. But right wing racism has come raging back into the mainstream, big time. This is one more example.

Morning Charles!

I sent you the link to my post about exactly that. Hope you enjoy. =)
