re: #47 Fozzie Bear

Well, Jessie Helms was an unreconstructed racist. He was old school. They don’t make too many of them like that any more. Today’s racist politicians are much better at using coded language and blowing the dog whistle. They have a better understanding of what will be percieved as racism.

I don’t know which is worse, really.

David Duke repackaged racism. A good looking, suited fellow (sans the white robe) with an education. The gun-totin, confederate flag wavin, toothless rednecks really hated him, and the world is full of David Dukes today. I think it’s much worse because it’s better disguised.
