Rahm Emanuel's Macaca Moment

RedStateVT is certainly no fan of Rahm-bo Emanuel who is now embroiled in the latest political correctness – loose speech controversy. As we said (see Quote Unquote, January 12, 2010) when Harry Reid’s description of President Obama (light-skinned, no Negro dialect except when he wants to) surfaced, politicians talk a lot and are going to say dumb things. We are inclined to give them a pass or even two……but only if the courtesy extends both ways. Except it never does.

George Allen, Representative, Governor and Senator from Virginia calls someone a “macaca” and his presidential aspirations are destroyed even though, to this day, most people don’t even know what a macaca is. And, of course, there is Sarah Palin who is forever being ridiculed for not delivering the political equivalent of a Shakespearean soliloquy whenever she speaks.
