Washington Post: Dinesh D’Souza is so ‘ghetto’

Dinesh D’Souza is a disgusting man. He shocked the conscience in November 2013 when he tweeted, “I am thankful this week when I remember that America is big enough and great enough to survive Grown-Up Trayvon in the White House!”

Today, the vile right-winger added to his racist repertoire.

D’Souza’s slam of the president caused gasps across the Twitterverse because “ghetto” has long been negatively synonymous with African American in popular culture and politics. But let’s face it, all sorts of folks have been labeling things or people deemed lacking class, taste or refinement as “ghetto” for years now. It’s a brand of one-percent sneering that the rest of us hurl at each other all the time, either seriously or in jest. It’s a put-down that packs a punch because there is no denying how bad being branded “ghetto” is. Still, that D’Souza would hurl the “ghetto” charge at the nation’s first black president is beyond offensive.

Jonathan Capeheart is a hater.

Unlike any DemoniRat you can name D’Souza is a patriot who understands and loves what America is really about better than those home grown enemies.

I don’t know that the Left would be interested. Jared Taylor is someone they are liable to dislike even more than Dinesh.

Jared Taylor is never politically correct but Dinesh is when he’s smearing Taylor and friends to the delight of the SPLC.

In his book D’Souza attacks Taylor at the same time that he is lifting Taylor’s arguments without attribution. You have to give the little opportunistic weasel credit for sheer gall.

Well the Washington Times was a Moonie enterprise back then so I doubt that a lack of appreciation for Christian orthodoxy was a firing offense. Francis wasn’t a Christian for what that’s worth. He valued Christianity as the basis of western culture but he was an agnostic.

I’m sure that you’re familiar with the wiki on Francis. Before the paragraph on the SBC convention it describes D’Souza’s role in the firing.

It’s instructive that characters like D’Souza never write articles denouncing the GOP for getting cozy with La Raza or other minority racial groups. Because racial politics doesn’t really bother them unless it is being done by some remnant of the historic white population whose ancestors created America. When that happens they get the long knives out.
