5 Feet of Fury

Uhm, is “racist” the same as “thinking you guys are foolish because this is a) your actual reasoning or b) what you tell each other because you don’t have a very good answer”?

Sheesh:

Any writer who’s spent significant time in the suburbs of Atlanta, on the South-Side of Chicago, or here in Harlem, knows that black people aren’t “left-leaning”–they just think the GOP is racist. Surveys may show blacks leaning-left on certain issues (minimum wage? ending the war?) but take it from an actual black leftist, there is a conservative streak running through black America wider than the Mississippi. Don’t confuse “enemy of my enemy”-ism, with actual sympathy.
