ABC News national correspondent Carole Simpson has joined the chorus on the hysterical left in trying to portray red America's vote for Bush as a throwback to the Confederacy.
Note to Carole: Chill! Look, let us be the first to tell you... A few years ago we dealt with this slavery problem. A coalition of abolitionist parties formed, named themselves "Democrats", nominated a tall bearded guy called Abe, and went to war with the rebellious slave-holding Republican south.
Oh wait.. Nevermind. Well whatever, it was the slave-holding Democratic south; same difference.
Point is, red America is now on the side of Abe's (grand and old) party, while the northeast and the west coast have apparently forgiven the slave-holding traditions of the Democratic party. It's win-win!
Carole dedicated most of her time on the panel to telling the audience how stupid the kids she meets at high schools around the country are, how scary the red states are, and how uninformed most Americans are in general. It was sad, yet funny, a little boring, but alas, in Real Media format... So you'll have to go view it here .
I think Carole proves affirmative action is a failure.
The left has reached critical panic mode and is lashing out at every opportunity. John Stuart is going berserk (still funny as sh#t, though). The left is so beside themselves and dumbfounded that not everybody thinks like them. I guess they are only into diversity if it relates to what you have sex with, but God forbid that it include philisophical views of life and politics.
All together now! "Oh, I wish I was in the land of cotton . . ."
All together now! "Oh, I wish I was in the land of cotton . . ."
"Hooray.. Hooray!"
This should make the DU lurkers crazy :) (Still gloating and it's been a week. The longer they whine the longer I'll gloat.)
Carole, I have news for you. American Blacks are a non-story in American politics. Hispanics and Asians is where it's at! Blacks, as usual remain mired at the bottom of the economic totem pole, chained there in economic slvery by their beloved Democrat Party!!!
Brilliant strategy. Win back states by insulting their residents. Them Democrats are too smart for me. For instance I did not know that there were 31 states in the Confederacy. Nor that Montana is in the South. Nor that Democratic president Abe Clintoln delivered the Butte address after the battle of Butte.
Just looking at Carole Simpson's picture has made me smarter already.
What did she say?
You mean you want me to paraphrase, when you have the actual video and audio available...? :)
y'know,I saw the video from that sleazy little tirade, and it didn't dawn on me that it was carole simpson; has she been to see michael jackson's plastic surgeon?
Estrogen-lacking feminazi.
Note to Carole Simpson: TOLD YA SO!
I've been warning them for years - The South Shall Rise Again.
BWAAAHAHAHA
(and no, I don't condone any form of slavery, nor am I prejudiced against blacks. The Civil War was about State rights, not slavery - but that's been thoroughly hashed out on other threads.)
Keep talking, Carole. Just don't act surprised when we red-state types remind you of this foolishness at the least opportune moments. Old times here, after all, are not forgotten.
Ohio: birthplace of U.S. Grant and W.T. Sherman...

Omigod, you didn't hear it? Omigod, she just went on and on! Omigod, she became a journalist to change the world! Omigod, these kids today listen to Rush Limbaugh and Hannity and Colmes! That's where they get their news from. Omigod, these kids are talking on their cell phones and don't care about network news, nor the diversity of news sources available to them from the NY Times, Washington Post and the networks!
