re: #53 freetoken

BTW, National Racists Online keeps pumping out the dog whistles also, I linked to one earlier about a NYT story on UCB admissions.

NRO is featuring on their front page Michael Barone’s latest idiot fluff Forget the Old South which is all about how those nasty “civil rights” leaders are still pretending it is 1955. How ironic given so many wingnuts are still in denial about the Southern Strategy of the GOP and so forth.

Anyway, the NRO commenters do not disappoint - full of ugliness.

There is some weapon grade BS in that linked article:

The phenomenon is apparent in much of the commentary on the George Zimmerman case. Facts were blithely ignored — the fact that Zimmerman is Hispanic, not white, by current standards; the evidence that he and not his victim, Trayvon Martin, was pummeled and wounded; the failure to find any hint of anti-black bias in Zimmerman’s past.
