For example, the commercial that ran in Tennessee, of a blond woman making sexual overtures to Harold Ford (hardly a fire-breathing leftist)? <br /><br />That being one of the most brazen examples, but hardly the only one: just look at the class and race-based resentments exploited by the Romney campaign.<br /><br />As a famed and highly successful Republican strategist put it, you can't say "nigger nigger nigger" any more, so Republicans had to find other ways of doing it, and boy, are they good at it.<br /><br />So how about it? No more claims of racism, as soon as Repubs forswear appealing to underlying white resentment?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-58931532286852894802013-01-07T22:25:52.937-05:002013-01-07T22:25:52.937-05:00Salon is an unappealing morass of gibberish, just ...Salon is an unappealing morass of gibberish, just like HuffPo.

O’Hehir's reference to "a rebellious neo-Confederacy rooted in the states of the Old South" and to "the pro-slavery forces of the 1860s" is a particularly offensive version of this lie.<br />David in Calnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-49353487278070699682013-01-07T16:21:10.450-05:002013-01-07T16:21:10.450-05:00Mr. Sommersby,

Please read through the comments. The same issues that O'Hehir raised are more carefully reasoned out. The modern conservative GOP was built by raising the flag of opposition to liberation movements.

What he said was, the Republicans weren't interested in doing so even if it cost them elections. And his column was not an overt call for a new Civil War; it was an analysis of how we pretty much are headed for a new war, as the divisions in the populace begin to resemble more and more those that existed (on different subjects) in the 1850's.<br /><br />I thought it was a pretty good article.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-56338689775340354722013-01-07T14:13:27.669-05:002013-01-07T14:13:27.669-05:00I never went to Salon until Glenn Greenwald went t...I never went to Salon until Glenn Greenwald went there.

That's like criticizing PBS for running "Bob the Builder" shows in the morning. A publication/TV station needn't be all serious news all the time -- there's room for less substantial fare, as well.<br /><br />The real question is whether, in addition to those "general interest" articles, the publications treat the serious news with the level of seriousness that it deserves, by demanding accurate and in-depth reporting and writing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-89871651258375010372013-01-07T10:46:12.496-05:002013-01-07T10:46:12.496-05:00Yup, Salon likes to include garbage amongst its mo...Yup, Salon likes to include garbage amongst its more "serious" articles, but I haven't heard a peep from liberals about it (prove me wrong fellow commenters, prove me wrong...)!hardindrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05275899305949454964noreply@blogger.com
