Perhaps it's because their party has the former Exalted Cyclops of the Ku Klux Klan serving his ninth term in the U.S. Senate. Not exactly going to find ANY Republicans who were members of the KKK serving in the Senate now are we? One way Democrat fingerpointing over race is just a convenient way for them to avoid ANY accounatability for their own actions on this issue.

Not quite Mike. Middle class whites such as you merely deciding 'color no longer should matter', doesn't make it so. I wish that were true but it isn't. As for your hero Ronald Reagan he pitched his 1980 campaign from the very beginning to the racist vote by kicking it off at the Neshoba County Fair (this after having received an endorsement from the KKK). Likewise his opposition to civil rights legislation and open housing laws while governor of California is nothing to be proud of. Even David Brooks can't help but admit “it’s obviously true that race played a role in the GOP ascent” . And so it goes.

Racism is fundamental to every discussion about American politics from 1776 up until and including 2008. And to deny that fact is to fly in the face of reality. Back to the camellias Mike.

A perfection. It really mimics the reality. It will shame the works of Michelangelo and DaVinci. Best artistry in the 21st Century. I will go down the history as the best political art of all time. More caricature pls, NYers. Your journalism for the first time has passed the mark, even just for the caricature.

Long, interesting and revealing. No wonder the Obama campaign wants the focus to be on the cover. http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2008/07/21/080721fa_fact_lizza?printable=true Hmmm. Isn't Ryan Lizza a progressive, liberal or left leaning? Much like the New Yorker? Just curious.

I'll humor you, DW, I'll do it, if you want it so badly. Mind you, it's not what makes me oppose BHO either, just like MataHarley. There are a lot more reasons as to why I don't like BHO, and none of it has to do with color or any other petty factor of the like. Sorry to say, I'm not the wingnut you're looking for, but you're welcome to keep on looking. It's just a bit of humor, and that's what I made my comment on - the humor behind the satire.
