HOWARD DEAN'S KLAN RALLY

Just go read this account of one of his recent fundraisers. Go ahead, I'll wait.

Now, why is this story in the Opinion section? Where would it be if all the racial and anti-gay, and anti-Semitic, humor had taken place at a Republican fundraiser? Page 1, above the fold? Of course.

Dean didn't put the n-word in comedians' mouths, but he did nothing to stop it coming out either. He didn't write the joke comparing Condi Rice to Michael Jackson, but he didn't protest it either. He didn't call VP Dick Cheney's daughter a "big lezzie," but did he say a word against the person who did, and who was there to support his candidacy for the presidency? No. His campaign has issued no apology, and no lefty bloggers have taken him to task, and thus far even his fellow Dems running for president are silent.

Where is the outrage? Dean's KKK-style fundraiser is Trent Lott times ten. He should be out of the race by now, and packing for a one-way trip back to Vermont. But he isn't, because the left doesn't give a d^&% when its own people exhibit overt racism or party with those who do.
