Comment on Jonah Goldberg and the Meaning of Racism by Maryland Conservatar

Maryland Conservatar — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 20:30:29 +0000

Just noticed you’re (kind of) back:

you write:

” So, on to Mr. Goldberg’s recent column. Mr. Goldberg asserts (I think?) that Reid’s remarks were racist:”

Actually his point was 180 from that:

“But by demanding Reid’s resignation, Steele is making an idiotic, nasty, and entirely cynical game bipartisan. Yes, there’s a double standard, but the point is that the standard used against conservatives is unfair, not that that unfair standard should be used against Democrats as well.”

His further point is that racism has come to mean little more than disagreeing with the Democrats – as he points earlier Harry Reid comments.

Keep posting – it’s nice having a liberal site without the vitriol of the Daily Kos
