My, my, the Repubs just got over that big flap with Trent "I'm not a racist scumbag! I'm not! I'm not! I'm not!" Lott, and here we go again. Bush just came out strongly against Michigan's affirmative action program, deciding to intervene in the pending lawsuit before the Supreme Court. This will really make it difficult to fool anyone into believing the Republicans aren't racists. Why don't they just come clean, and rename themselves the Racist Party? At least then they wouldn't be hypocrites also: just racist, sexist, homophobic pigs! Of course, Bush paid shallow, obviously insincere lip service to "diversity," but he's clearly doing this to please his racist base. He claims he's against Michigan's affirmative action program because it gives underserved rewards based on race. Of course, he has no problem with rich white men like himself receiving undeserved rewards based upon their race and class. It only when they favor blacks he has a problem with it. His feigned moral outrage over affirmative action is especially amusing, considering he owes his Presidency in large part to massive disenfranchisement of African-American voters in Florida by his brother Jeb. What monumental effrontery and audacious hypocrisy on his part, literally breath-taking in its epic scope!
