Norquist should do better than calling his critics racists

Norquist *did* do better, he called his attackers on their religious bigotry, not racial bigotry.
That charge was morphed into a liberal race card by the usual gang of bigots. It made him easier to attack and harder to defend.

That's a fair point; I only read Sailer's interpretation, not the actual transcript.

No. Norquist called Gaffney and others, regularly, "Racists and bigots"
