On Monday, September 14, we spoke about the rallies and protests against the President and his policies.  The not so hidden racism in much of the rhetoric and  organizing, and the apparent limited response of progressives was the subject of conversations.

Celeste and I referred to several articles.

From the Democraticunderground.com looked at a post entitled "Liberals: Prepare for Defcon: Level Batshit Crazy" www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php

We also referred to an op ed piece by Maureen Dowd which look at the history of South Carolina politics, Representative Wilson, and the continuing role of race and racism. entitled "|boy, oh Boy" www.nytimes.com/2009/09/13/opinion/13dowd.html

We will post thelink to the article by Earl Hutchinson, that was mentioned by Celeste, later.
