Alabama State Representative: I Object to a Biracial Marriage

In this case, the Representative making this statement is a Democrat. He's also black. He said he didn't like Clarence Thomas because he's married to a white woman.

He's claim he was misquoted:

Yeah, I'm not sure I buy that. Who starts a sentence with "Some might say I don't like him because he's married to a white woman?" Who thinks this way, except for people who object to a black guy marrying a white woman?

This country needs to grow up about race. There is real racism in this country. And racism is as poisonous a thing as liberals say it is.

But if liberals wish to their campaign against racism to be principled rather than a simple partisan attack, they have to call out racism whenever they see it -- not just when they find it, conveniently, amongst their political enemies.

Which really seems to be their preferred mode of operation, unfortunately.

I really wish liberals could decide if it's racism they most hate, or simply Republicans. Because I am tired of them taking the latter to be the former, and ignoring or covering up racism when they see it in their own midst.
