The recent furor over the performance of Reggie Brown at the Repub Leaderhip Conference is only interesting for what it shows about the Repub mindset. Brown's inept and unfunny attempts to impesonate President Obama, was apparently a big hit with the delegates but not with the organizers, who cut Brown's performance short.
First of all I want to say that I'm not a fan of "political correctness" but I'm not a fan of what has come to be known as "political incorrectness" i.e. that there is something brave about being gratuitously offensive (Howard Stern, Don Imus etc.)
The point though is that the GOP is still trying to pull a "Willie Horton;" pandering to racial bias while trying to claim that they are not themselves racist.
How long are we going to let them get away with it?
