Harry Reid's Negro Problem - And Ours [Mark Steyn]

Re Senator Reid and the "light-skinned Negro", I agree with much of what's written below, and obviously any Republican Senate Majority Leader who started musing on such matters would be dark-skinned toast in nothing flat. But this comment by Matthew Yglesias (full disclosure: Mr Yglesias has no use for me) tiptoes ever so tentatively toward the heart of it:

"It’s good that Reid apologized, but at the same time you can’t really apologize for being the sort of person who’d be inclined to use the phrase “negro dialect” and it’s more the idea of Reid being that kind of person that’s creepy here than anything else."

One understands the realities of power. You can talk about how light-skinned and clean the Negro is and that's perfectly okay as long as you support the President's policies (or, as Mr Obama put it in his acceptance of Reid's apology) "social justice". But, if you go along to a town hall meeting and say you oppose the health care bill because you're very concerned at what you hear about waiting times for MRIs in Canada, you're obviously a knuckledragging racist who's itching to string that uppity Negro from the nearest tree."

Okay, fine. But, even if you accept all that, you're still left with what Mr Yglesias calls the "creepiness" - the fact that the Senate Majority Leader and to a lesser extent the Vice-President think in this way. To those of us who find identity politics repugnant, it would seem to confirm that an unhealthy obsession with "anti-racism" eventually becomes so condescending it's indistinguishable from racism - or, at any rate, the micro-classifications of apartheid - to the point where bigtime Dem honchos are sitting around saying, "What we need here is a clean octoroon." "Well, this high yaller from Chicago might do the trick." I mean, in what sense are Harry Reid's remarks any different from this? The Weekly World News' "Ed Anger" commenting last week on Obama's first transsexual appointment:

"I saw some pretty lousy looking she-males back in Korea, and I gotta say: this new one at least can pass"

The French reaction

A real shocker: Mais les grands médias sont restés quasi muets. Libération a d'abord estimé sur son site que les e-mails avaient été « piratés pour faire capoter Copenhague » puis a publié dans son édition papier un article alarmiste [...]. Le Monde de son coté a choisi de donner la parole à la défense avec une interview d'un membre du Giec, Thomas Stocker, qui accuse les « négateurs du réchauffement » d'ignorer des faits établis. Le reste des médias minimise globalement la portée de l'événement et le voit comme une douteuse tentative de discréditer la communauté scientifique.

Chaos and Corruption: The Problem Present

Planet Pepe gets cute: "Piracy is a business and it is about money, Van Middelkoop allowed, not worth shooting about. Isn't piracy a vehicle for funding international terrorist groups like al-Qaeda as well as a terrorist capability?, a questioner asked. "That is not how I present the problem," the Dutch minister grunted."

Not that it could have anything to do with the false allegations against the estimable Tarek Mehenna, of course.

[ENGLISH TRANSLATION BEGINS P.16]

"The process of settlement is a "Civilization-Jihadist Proecess" with all the word means. The Ikhwan must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and "sabotaging" its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions. Without this level of understanding, we are not up to this challenge and have not prepared ourselves for Jihad yet. It is a Muslim's destiny to perform Jihad and work wherever he is and wherever he lands until the final hour comes, and there is no escape from that destiny"

The unhappy fact is that this is one of those organzations the MSM Party Line keeps reassuring us is "moderate" and "progressive".

They are right about the second.

Getting on with the program

A critical part of the antiwar project is to make Americans feel ashamed of defending ourselves, inducing us to accept the European view that actions taken in our defense — even those that have protected us from additional jihadist strikes — tarnish our image, stir our enemies, and put us in grave danger.
