The 21st Century Face of Dallas Bigotry

Who needs the Klan?

"Obama has the problem that he happens to be Black." - Adelfa Callejo

Before you accuse me of taking her out of context, here's the horse's mouth. It is wonderful when the day-in and day-out merchants of race-politics are exposed to the sunshine.

Hillary Clinton can definitely file this one under, with friends like these who needs enemies?

wahahahahahahat? Did she really say that? Somebody edited that video.

Are all 84 year old Latino ladies also close-minded bigots? (perhaps I should include a < satire > tag?)

I love the end of the clip. Clinton's people have obviously already freaked out and quickly shot off a memo stating that she "of course" denounces her.

Follow any of the followup here? Her claims are that when the [paraphrase] "blacks were in power, they did nothing to help the Latinos, so the Latinos will now do nothing to help them." Mitigating ... somewhat. Of course after the fact, it's easy to tailor your words ...

Mitigating shmitigating. All it does is further support that her brain cannot focus on a damn thing other than race.

It is true that there's lengthy history in Dallas of black and Hispanic divisiveness, but my point is that she's the problem.

Here own bigotry would never allow her to see that, though.
