By Martin A. Knight

I don't like having to write this because John McCain still has my vote.

But just because John McCain is our nominee does not mean that he is above error or that we should not make noise about it when he does something so thoroughly bone-headed as to hand the Democratic Party and their media arm the perfect cover (himself) to recast any further mention of Obama's entirely voluntary 20 year association with a hate-mongering conspiracy-theory-promoting joke of a "pastor" as a "racist" attack.

As it is, the Democrats' National Party Organ was only too eager to go along with it. It's now on the way to being part of this election's narrative; 2008's very own "Willie Horton" moment, a contrived episode the Left would cite forever as Republicans winning based on "hate".

The assertion that Mr. Obama is "just too extreme for North Carolina" is a clear bid to stir bigotry in a Southern state ...

Of course, it goes without saying that for the elitist latte-sipping blistering idiots that comprise most of the nation's editorial boards, whites, especially Southern whites, will always and forever be just a hair's breadth away from donning sheets, burning crosses and going on lynching parties in black neighborhoods - all they need is just to see a black man on their television screens.
