The new \"Willie Horton\" ad, racialized for your reaction

Per Bush's latest campaign ad, as seen in This post over at TNR, it's nice to know that the administration seems so willing for the public to equate dark skin with terrorism even though the last major cashe of terrorist weapos seized came from a gang of right-wing white supremacist East TX yahoos (read back a few posts or read through the archives at Orcinus to see what i'm talking about.) But, then again, since one variety of terrorsts is part of the Bush Administration's "base," they are obviously not going to risk alienting them or incurring their wrath.


After all, Tim McVeigh was a Terrorist too... just that he didn't have that convenient dark olive skin or bushy eyebrows or any of that stuff
