Racism

The Southern Strategy Rolls On…

Rush Limbaugh continues to be the epicenter of Republican racism. Here Limbaugh explains how the president goes "all honky" when he's around white people.

I know the "Republican racism" posts are becoming exhausting, but there's a purpose here and it's important to underscore the point whenever possible. The Republicans continue to base a considerable chunk of their political strategy on racism and racial fearmongering, specifically stoking white racism against the president and others. The Southern Strategy. Instead of being regarded as a low-brow second tier political party that continues to exist in the 1950s, they're still taken seriously by the press and historians. Until they're shamed into jettisoning the racism or leaving the stage to make way for a new party, we have a responsibility to continuously and vigorously call them on this nonsense.
