The recent article by Maureen Dowd is right on. I'm glad someone finally decided to write about the elephant in the room.
Did you see the crowd in DC for the 'tax payer protests'? From what I saw most, if not all of them were white, middle aged and scared. I suppose if you came from a place like South Carolina where in 1860 you enslaved 57% of your population you might be scared too now that a black guy is in charge. The fact that these jokers co-oped the term 'freedom riders' and wore it proudly on their shirts is nauseating.
