Guilty...?

In two consecutive days (Sep. 19 and 20, old news I know), we got two Daily News opinion pieces, from two conservative columnists who tell us that race hate against President Obama from the right is a figment of the liberal imagination.
Mssrs. Goldberg and Jenkins discount racial slurs and code words since the Fall of 2008, including some from our own former half-term governor, pictures comparing America’s 1st Lady to a chimp, the president portrayed as a witch doctor (replete with bone-through-nose), post cards of the White House lawn as a watermelon patch, the unhinged ravings of Glenn Beck, culminating in the Caucasian-only, 70,000 strong bizzarro “9/12” T-bag Mardi Gras in D.C. I could show Goldberg and Jenkins some of the disgusting emails forwarded to me by Republican acquaintances in the south.
The list goes on, but Goldberg and Jenkins are having none of it, telling us instead that there’s no real evidence to support the charge of racism, and that it’s simply a plot by Democrats to stifle earnest dissent against Obama’s socialist agenda.
Neither Goldberg nor Jenkins will ever admit that to many white Americans, Obama has committed the heinous crime of being president while black.

Sorry I haven't posted for so long, but I've been in engrossed in our community theater production of Agatha Christie's SPIDER'S WEB. This is our final weekend for the run, and I hope to be blogging and writing letters-to-editors and commentarying at large again soon. Hope you missed me.

Sandy and Joe, Jose and Stella, are you ready for some sunshine and cervesa Pacifico?
