Suggest that there’s the slightest whiff of racism going on here, and they go apoplectic, calling anyone who suggests such a base canard “racist” and worse. Nobody’s yet topped Glenn Beck’s Gold Medal for Chutzpah performance — “Obama is a racist!” — but there’s still plenty of time.

It isn’t often that you see Pat Buchanan and Rush Limbaugh flailing wildly, flecks of foam forming around their political pottymouths. But in the last 24 hours, that’s exactly what I’ve witnessed.
The Party of Lincoln™ bears about as much resemblance TO Lincoln as a grubworm does to a supernova. It is all topsy-turvy: voter suppression, [...]

Cross Posted From Article of Faith:
Looks like the party of criminals and sex perverts can also add the monikers racists, homophobes and bullies to their titles, as the Grand Old Party circles the drain less than two weeks before election day.
