THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

WHAT AMERICA MEANS TO ME | 2002-05-25

This is not some sort of secret conspiracy. They could not be more blatant and open about the fact that hating white gentiles in general and white Southerners in particular is What America Is All About.

We have national TV ads and Senator McCain saying this as clearly as any human being can POSSIBLLY say it. There is nothing subtle here.

The Ad Council said it loud and clear and on national television. Senator McCain said it, also on national TV. National Review, which is always talking about the importance of words, spends a lot of effort making it clear that hating the South trumps verbal accuracy.

"John Brown's Body" is our real national anthem.

National Review makes it very clear that Reagan's victory was nowhere near as important to them as rejecting George Wallace's many millions of supporters.

They hate you, and I don't know how they could possibly make this any clearer.

And that, dear Virginia, is What America Means To Me.
