Dems Playing the Guilt Card Again
Sigh. There they go again. Modern liberals just can’t help themselves, it seems.
As polls showed the presidential contest tightening up early last week, worried Democrats began flogging the Americans-are-racists theme more openly than ever. John Murtha, the white Johnstown congressman, made the accusation local, while Deval Patrick, the Democratic, African-American governor of Massachusetts, used a campaign stop in Pittsburgh to make it international.
It was the bad pol/good pol routine. One politician accuses citizens of a grievous failing, the other asks them to prove they’re not guilty by voting for his guy. No matter how much truth is in the charge, the Democrats’ approach is a recipe for decades more of national immaturity.
