Yes, conservatives sometimes can REALLY be bigots
When liberals begin believing their rhetoric, their prejudices and ideologically-based assumptions tend to run away with them. They, at least, have some excuse.
But here's a conservative Wisconsin radio host who let typically liberal assumptions warp his perceptions somehow- and it got him into trouble, as well it should have.
Thing is, though, he still believes the absurd lie about one of the most powerful and dynamic people in American govenment. A liberal might believe such a lie because his ideologically-based biases tell him that it should be true. Many liberals just can't get their minds around the fact that this administration has elevated more minorities to positions of real power and influence than has any other adminstration in history.
But I just don't understand what excuse this guy has. I mean, he's supposed to be a conservative. Or so they tell us, anyway.
This dude shouldn't just apologize to Secretary-Designate Rice for his racist remark. He should apologize to the President and to his entire administration for repeating a baseless lie as fact simply because he's suffering from the intellectual equivalent of hallucinations. That he doesn't have an ideological excuse makes his behavior all the less excusable.
