Some liberal-left idiot is arguing that 'again' in Donald Trump's 'Make America Great Again' is a racist 'dog whistle.'  The suggestion is that Trump wants to bring back slavery and Jim Crow.  Yet another proof that there is nothing so vile and contemptible and fundamentally stupid that some liberal won't embrace it.  If you think I go too far when I refer to contemporary liberals as moral scum, it is incidents like this that are part of  my justification. <\/span><\/p>\n

Mark Steyn supplies<\/a> some other 'dog whistles' for your delectation:<\/span><\/p>\n

On MSNBC, Chris Matthews declared this week that Republicans use "Chicago" as a racist code word. Not to be outdone, his colleague Lawrence O'Donnell pronounced "golf" a racist code word. When Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell observed that Obama was "working to earn a spot on the PGA tour," O'Donnell brilliantly perceived that subliminally associating Obama with golf is racist, because the word "golf" is subliminally associated with "Tiger Woods," and the word "Tiger" is not-so-subliminally associated with cocktail waitress Jamie Grubbs, nightclub hostess Rachel Uchitel, lingerie model Jamie Jungers, former porn star Holly Sampson, etc, etc. So by using the word "golf" you're sending a racist dog whistle that Obama is a sex addict who reverses over fire hydrants.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I must reiterate my principle of the Political Burden of Proof:<\/span><\/p>\n

As contemporary 'liberals' become ever more extreme, they increasingly assume what I will call the political burden of proof<\/em>.  The onus is now on them to defeat the presumption that they are so  morally and intellectually obtuse as not to be worth talking to.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
