A black bourgeoisie perspective on U.S. politics
For those that have not yet heard, WaPo reports:
Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael S. Steele accused a leading Democratic congressman yesterday of racial insensitivity for saying the Republican candidate has “slavishly” followed the GOP.
Steele, an African American running for the U.S. Senate, was reacting to remarks by House Minority Whip Steny H. Hoyer, who characterized Steele this week as having had “a career of slavishly supporting the Republican Party.”
The problem is obviously that Hoyer is white and probably cannot refer to a black person as slavish. I, however, am black and hereby transfer Hoyer’s inappropriate use of inside-the-fam lingo to me.
MICHAEL STEELE HAS A HISTORY OF SLAVISHLY SUPPORTING THE REPUBLICAN AGENDA.
