Now this is just too rich. If a Republican stopped by and used the damned Men's room at a Confederate Landmark, named for a leading Secessionist Slaveholder, why we'd have everybody from Nancy Pelosi to Al Sharpton all over TV talking about their "insensitivity" (in this case being a euphemisim for "rabid skinhead") So what can we say about the Democrats scheduling a full-fledged candidates' debate at this facility? http://www.drudgereport.com/long.htm Have a good long drink of double standards.
[UPDATE: LATE FRIDAY ABC ANNOUNCED A DIFFERENT THEATER LOCATION FOR DEBATE... 'WE DECIDED DAYS AGO, FOR BROADCAST REASONS, NOT TO HOLD THE DEBATE AT LONGSTREET,' A TOP ABC NEWS SOURCE TELLS DRUDGE. THE NETWORK PLANS TO RELEASE FULL DETAILS ON MONDAY.] For broadcast reasons? WTF does that mean? But regardless they aren't holding it their, and Republicans just need to latch onto something after the recent Lott and Santorum gaffe's so let them have their fun with this. It really isn't a big deal unless people choose to make it such.
Hey, Santorum saying he's not comfortable with the idea of having some guy shoving his schlong all the way up his anus isn't that big a deal either, but that sure didn't stop anybody. Cynthia McKinney blaming "the Jews" for everything from dandruff to the vernal equinox doesn't even get ink in most newspapers. Apparently nobody "chose" to make it a big deal. But hey - Jew baiting has a long and honored history amongst the left. "Hymietown" Jesse notwithstanding.
