[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lee Atwater had a pungent and famous quote about how once conservatives could no longer use the n-word they used things like “states’ rights” to invoke the same spirit.

I don’t think it’s an exaggeration any more — if it ever was — to say they use DEI as the n-word.[/quote]

Lee Atwater wrote the playbook for Republican's, when it was time to meet his maker he apologized for the whole Willie Horton thing, and everything that came after. Power and ambition without considering the cost is a dangerous thing.

"In 1988," Mr. Atwater said, "fighting Dukakis, I said that I 'would strip the bark off the little bastard' and 'make Willie Horton his running mate.' I am sorry for both statements: the first for its naked cruelty, the second because it makes me sound racist, which I am not." Reputation as 'Ugly Campaigner'

"While I didn't invent negative politics," he said, "I am one of its most ardent practitioners."

He was dead 3 months later. 40 yrs old. There is nothing unintentional about what the Republicans are doing right now. How we haven't learned anything I don't know. None of this makes this country stronger. [/quote]
