The Myth That Keeps on Giving

By Arnold Ahlert

"The racial flap surrounding Harry Reid once again reveals the not-so-secret double-standard with regard to stupid racial comments: make one as a Republican and you're toast, make one as a Democrat and it's "time to move on to more important things." How do Democrats get away with it? Besides an in-the-tank media willing to cover their behinds, Democrats have successfully maintained one of the biggest lies in American politics: they, and they alone, are the party looking out for black America's interests. What interests? The maintenance of a victimist mentality and an expansion of the welfare state.


In a sane world, the idea that helping people to remain dependent on government is something to be proud of, would be ridiculed for the insanity — make that racist insanity — it truly is. Vote for us, so you can keep getting food stamps, or a welfare check? Vote for us so you can keep getting a substandard education for your children, because we're in political hock to the teachers' unions? Vote for us so you can maintain the myth that every problem in your life is due to white racism? Vote for us because we're going to make it better for you?"
