Oh. My. God.Update: Did This Moron Swipe from Kos?

There is spin, and then there is spin: a CNBC/NYT reporter claims that Joe Biden’s occasional bursts of old-school dumb-but-not-hateful racism are actually “refreshing” and “an asset.”

Need I remind anyone that for months the left has been DaVinci Codebreaking every John McCain advertisement for so-called “coded racism.” And they were not praising such “coded racism” as “refreshing” or charming in the least.

Rather the opposite.

But when Joe Biden is genuinely, pleasantly surprised that an African-American manages to wash himself on occasion, it’s a good thing! It just shows, I guess, that he’s “relatable” to all those Racist Older White voters. I guess the idea is that Joe Biden can make the case, “Hey, I’m as surprised as you all are to be running with a darkie. But I have to tell you — he’s one of the ‘good ones,’ like Cosby or Byron Allen. He’s like the new, family-friendly Ice Cube, not the old, angry Ice Cube that your daughter would date to get back at you for not buying her that Mini Cooper she wanted.”

Brilliant.

Allah thinks he’s figured out the highly nuanced distinction: clumsy, retrograde soft-racism that sounds like Archie Bunker getting into it with Meathead is good because it’s right out there out in the open, charming and disarming, whereas McCain’s “racist” ads are coded.

McCain’s “stealth racism” appeals to our lizard brains, while Joe Biden’s open racism appeals to our higher selves.

SNIP

Ah now I see!  If you’re on the Right ‘anything’ you say can be construed as ‘coded racism’.  And that’s extremely evil.   However if you’re on the Left you can just do all the old ‘standard racist quips’.  And that’s ‘refreshing’ and no doubt some how ‘uplifting’.

It amazes me that there are people who are shoveling this B/S as the truth and other people are calling for 2nd helpings of the crap.  If someone on the Right were to make the same claims that would cause a Lefty explosion of major proportions.
