Of all the embarrassing American totems we may have exported to Australia (Budweiser, country music, Keanu Reeves), could any of them be more embarrassing than an old white Republican from Georgia talking about the state of race relations in our country?
"If I can stay away from white cops, racist vigilantes, and scared ground-standers, and get a full scholarship at an Ivy League school, I could grow up to be President."
"Hypocrisy" is only an insult to Democrats, who care about things like integrity and principle. We Republicans are freed from the constraints of having to actually practice what we preach. Lord knows none of us would ever criticize a fellow Republican tribesman over such things like consistency, particularly if there is even a remote chance to deal some political damage to the other side at stake!
"that they don’t have the education, they don’t have the support structures, they don’t have the family structures."
Yes, notice ALL the legislation your party has proposed to remedy any of those issues. Like ...tax cuts, unspecified deregulations of unspecified businesses, and ... Repeal Obamacare? No abortin'? Gay people can't wed?
It's almost like those colored folks are able to somehow discern which people and which party are still, to this day, on the side of inequality! But how could they possibly think that, when our party always says words and stuff proclaiming how fair we are? Why wouldn't they believe all the words? I mean, come on. How much more do we have to talk about all their colored people problems?
Oh cracker, please.

Identity politics is a bitch, man.
Remember the Dixie Chicks?
Well, back then things did used to be better ....

Exporting the stupid to Australia is simply revenge for Murdoch.
And that mammograms HURT! (just had mine this morning- ouch)
"Politics stops at the water's edge" is only in effect when a Republican occupies the White House.
He's a bit of a Drongo, mate.
"If black people can kill black people and nobody cares, why can't we white people do it too?! NOT FAIR, RACISTS"

now, can the party of herman cain, michael steele and alan west possibly be racist?
A guy from the South complaining that the President didn't stop racism?
Bitch, please.
