Let's recap, shall we
We got:
-
A Black guy;
-
A really old guy;
-
A really dumb and unqualified woman;
-
Foiled assasination attempts by
White supremacistscrazies; -
Weekly apologies for the existence of blackness (esp. when it speaks or gets excited about the black guy);
-
Countless
racistunflattering portrayals of the black guy and his wife; -
An economy in the shitter;
-
Two wars; and
-
Millions of people losing their homes (or about to).
And what does John McCain (the really old guy) do?
He goes and suspends his campaign to go off and "fix" the economy.
Ta-Nehisi Coates has the best response.
Me?
I'm still trying to figure out what the hell world I live in. The last 18 months have been a surreal dream, man.
