I have a kind of unwritten rule that I don’t respond to right-wing talk radio hosts. That’s why you so seldom see Rush Limbaugh mentioned at the Frog Pond. But apparently he’s now arguing that it is the Democratic Party, not the Republicans, who want to keep black people out of positions of power. He’s saying this because the South Carolina Democratic Party and the DSCC have no interest in helping indicted porn-peddler Alvin Greene in his quest to dethrone Sen. Jim DeMint. No one knows how this guy won the nomination but it’s quite obvious that he isn’t a serious candidate. He’s unemployed. He raised no money. He spent no money. He didn’t campaign. And he’s got this to deal with:
A Richland County grand jury based in Columbia, S.C., handed down the indictment on Friday for disseminating, procuring or promoting obscenity. He was also indicted on a misdemeanor charge of communicating obscene materials to a person without consent, the Associated Press reported.
Greene was arrested in November after police charged that approached a female University of South Carolina student in the school’s library, showed her the lewd photos, and suggested they go to her dorm room.
The fact that he’s criminally creepy and completely broke might have more to do with the Democrats’ lack of enthusiasm for his campaign than the color of his skin.
But, hey, the best refutation of Limbaugh’s nonsense is the president of the United States. Last I checked, that was a position of power, and the Democrats put him there.
