Truest statement of the week

Indeed, we liberals so love the smell of racism that we at THE HOWLER sometimes wonder if the word still has any meaning. We're so old that we can recall when racists would turn dogs and hoses on children, then murder their parents that night. Today, our definition has broadened considerably. We toss the term at everything that moves. It seems to bring joy to our lives.We seem to love the feel of the word. We seem to love its smell in the morning -- and on MSNBC, through the night.
-- Bob Somerby, "ACCUSATION IN BULK! We liberals make sweeping claims about race. Then, we pretend that we didn't" (The Daily Howler).
