“Minstrelsy”

Despite his strong position in the polls, Herman Cain may suddenly have a real problem on his hands. According to this item in the New York Times, his behavior has clearly strayed beyond what is approved and permitted for a member of his race. (Even beyond running as a Republican, I mean, which is of course bad enough.)

Just so you can avoid any unpleasantness, here’s a simple rule of thumb: if you find yourself disinclined to vote for four more years of Barack Obama, you’re probably a racist. And if you find yourself liking Herman Cain, ditto.

Remember: all crimes begin with a thought!

  3. I used to think so, too, a couple of decades ago. It has since forfeited all claims to being the nation’s paper of record for its despicable bias.
