Put Andre Carson On a Pedestal

For all the world to see.

He is the face of the Democratic Party.

And we want everyone to know it.

The quote of the day, from Congressman Andre Carson, Indiana:
And this is beyond symbolic change. This is the effort that we're seeing of Jim Crow. Some of these folks in Congress right now would love to see us as second-class citizens. (audience members reply, "Yes!") Some of them in Congress right now of this Tea Party would love to see you and me - I'm sorry, Tamron (Hall) - hanging on a tree. (audience members reply, "Yes!") Some of them right now in Congress are comfortable with where we were 50 and 60 years ago. [source]
Tea Partiers would like to see the likes of Andre Carson hanging from a tree?  On the contrary, we want him on every channel of the national news.  Repeatedly.

Andre Carson makes us stronger.  He grows our ranks.  His kind - stupid Democrats - win us elections.

Hang him?  Not even.  We want to give his sorry ass a medal.

It all reminds me so much of Southern politicians in the old days who would rave about the dangers "blacks" posed to "whites." All to drum up anger that could be used to empower and enrich said politician.

Rush not so gently pointed out that the KKK was the terrorist arm of the Democrat Party (of Death) which festooned trees with hanging black folks. What's that syndrome where the victims take the side of their abusers? One wonders if the Nazis staged a comeback how many Jews would vote for 'em.

Andre is our (not so) illustrious congressman from the 7th district in Indianapolis. His grandmother (Julia Carson)was revered here by the black community and had a secure seat for life even though she was just as goofy and the election illegalites she participated in are widely known here. Like sending buses out to the projects to pick up people and offering free booze, sack lunches, and cigarettes and then riding them around town to vote at many different polling places. Her grandson rode in on her coattails but I'm afraid we're stuck with him. His electorate can't see beyond the fact of his blackness.
