When will liberals stop living in the past? Specifically, when will they accept that they aren't all that stands between a wonderful, tolerant America and Jim Crow?
I was in the room when, during the Democratic convention, civil rights hero John Lewis suggested that Republicans wanted to "go back" to the days when black men like him could be beaten in the street by the enforcers of Jim Crow. I thought it an outrageous and disgusting bit of demagoguery. The audience of Democratic delegates cheered in a riot of self-congratulation.
It's bizarre. I spend most of my time talking...












No matter that conservative policies disproportionately damage the black community every time you turn around because if their callousness toward poverty. Look at the voting percentages. It's no accident that minorities do t vote Republican. And it's not because they are too "stupid" or uneducated to rep their own interests, which is another Republican view that is overtly racist.
