At America Blog, they’re wondering if a cartoon drawing of Al Franken in an NRSC mailer featuring is “a bit ‘ethnic.’” Yes, exactly! They’re trying to exploit anti-semitism against Al Franken by supporting the Jewish Republican running against him, Norm Coleman. Brilliant!
Meanwhile, Frank Rich expectorates out a column on how racist Republicans are by noting how George Allen “capsized his own shoo-in re-election race by calling a 20-year-old Indian-American ‘macaca’ before a white audience (and a video camera).” And we all know only Republican senator would be dumb enough to traffic in Indian ethnic stereotypes in front of a camera, right Frank?
