Attorney General Eric Holder said recently that the American people are still, too often, cowards when it comes to discussing race. Really, now. And yet now it comes out that even Democratic Senator Dick Durbin admits that it was the playing of the race card that forced Democrats to cave in and accept Roland Burris as an appointed senator, even though they'd said they never would. Now they regret that decision.
But as Jim Geraghty suggests today, that makes, not the American people, but Senate Democrats the real "cowards."
Just so--and I've seen recently that the repeated race-baiters and anti-semites Al Sharpton and Louis Farrakhan have been active lately, making statements, accusing others of racism. When will cowardly Democrats tell those guys off?
