- Even The KlansMen Aren't Racist Anymore

This is a breathtaking announcement. Charles Barron (shown above without his orange jumpsuit) former Black Panther, has been endorsed by none other than David Duke, former Klan leader. This is who we have in politics now. Former Black Panthers and Former Klansmen.

While I am thrilled that the "everything you white people do is because of racism" view has obviously been taken down a peg, I think I'm more disgusted than anything else.

By any reasonable estimation, both of these people are reprehensible human beings. And yet, in 21st century America, the word we have for someone like that is "political leader".
