Another revealing episode in the on-going saga of how the condescending, arrogant Democratic party and their willing accomplices in the elite media really view the South (or, for that matter, anyone they perceive as insufficiently liberal, overminded, or as "progressive" as they are). Southern Whites certainly fill that bill for them!
Don't expect the media attention over this crass remark to last more than a day or two. Can you imagine if a Republican made such an ignorant, flippant remark that insulted a whole class of people? Wait a second....yes I can!! Remember Trent Lott? His off-hand pleasantries at Strom Thurmond's birthday celebration caused a media furor that lasted weeks and forced him to resign his position as Senate Majority Leader!
Do you think any of the media elite will call for Clark to withdraw from the current Democratic nominating circus that - in the immortal words of the Washington Times' Wes Pruden - is starting to resemble the "Gong Show"? Don't hold your breath. That brand of phony "righteous indignation" is reserved for Republicans!
That OK - Southerners have long memories and will take their revenge come Novemnber 2004!

I remember the firestorm when Ross Perot said "you people," when speaking to a black audience. If he'd been saying it to a group of Southerners, it would be considered a non-issue, by the media.
