On Olbermann, Geraldine Ferraro, David Duke territory and the votes of Millennials

Here's the awesome rant by Keith Olbermann on the matter of Clinton having yet another surrogate race-baiting for the upcoming elections in Pennsylvania :


I went over to Booman Tribune to see how they were dealing with the show and I'm there in several threads. Martin himself asked me why I believe that Ferraro's comments do enter David Duke territory because to him the words sounds stupid, not racist.

Well ...

I think the most salient aspect that ties Ferraro's words to Duke's is her claim that she was a victim of anti-white racism :

"Any time anybody does anything that in any way pulls this campaign down and says let's address reality and the problems we're facing in this world, you're accused of being racist, so you have to shut up.

"Racism works in two different directions. I really think they're attacking me because I'm white.

Words to live by

"I must admit moreover that it may not be easy, in every possible case, to trace the line of separation between the rights of religion and the Civil authority with such distinctness as to avoid collisions and doubts on unessential points. The tendency of a usurpation on one side or the other, or to a corrupting coalition or alliance between them, will be best guarded by an entire abstinence of the Government from interference in any way whatever, beyond the necessity of preserving public order, and protecting each sect against trespass on its legal rights by others."


— -- James Madison, letter to Reverend Adams, in Robert L. Maddox, Separation of Church and State: Guarantor of Religious Freedom (1987) p. 39
