Do you remember the day after the election all the brouhaha about a noose being found hanging in a tree at Baylor University and reports of students burning Obama campaign signs in their barbecue grills? The blacks were outraged! A clear case of racism! This must be investigated!
It turns out, the rope was not a noose -- it was a rope swing a bunch of students had been trying to rig up. It turns out, the signs were not signs -- they were empty cartons some students were getting rid of. Yet this Saturday's newspaper pictures a weeping young woman at a "silent march against racism" on the campus. What racism??!!! Looks to me like it's a bunch of excitable wannabe Malcolm X's and MLK's who spy racists behind every tree and shrub.
