When Herman Cain was speaking at CPAC, I wondered how long it would be before Liberals/Progressives started up their racist slurs against him. Liberals talk a good game about being anti-racist and anti-sexist, but, we’ve seen the way they treat conservative Blacks and women. Now we get, via the All American Blogger, this disgusting racist piece
Black History Month is Herman Cain Playing the Race Minstrel for CPAC
In the immortal words of Megatron in Transformers: The Movie, Herman Cain’s speech at CPAC really is bad comedy. As you know, I find black garbage pail kids black conservatives fascinating not because of what they believe, but rather because of how they entertain and perform for their White Conservative masters. (snip)
Instead, Herman Cain’s shtick is a version of race minstrelsy where he performs “authentic negritude†as wish fulfillment for White Conservative fantasies. Like the fountain at Lourdes, Cain in his designated role as black Conservative mascot, absolves the White racial reactionaries at CPAC of their sins. This is a refined performance that Black Conservatives have perfected over many decades and centuries of practice.
We always need a monkey in the window, for he/she reminds us of our humanity while simultaneously reinforcing a sense of our own superiority. Sadly, there are always folks who are willing to play that role because it pays so well. (WT: all bold mine)
Had a conservative written this about a liberal, there would be fireworks at every media outlet. Since a liberal wrote it, it has been ignored. Waiting for liberals to condemn AlterNet in 3…2….2….2…..2….

And the author even writes at the NY Times now and then, Captain. I’m sure they see nothing wrong with this.
Pretty much right, Trish. Liberals are mostly ignoring the story.
Silly Teach, accountability is for conservatives!
