Hah. I love the SEIU henchmen. It’s amazing how much mileage idiots can get out of utterly inconsequential incidents (someone in SEIU shirt got in shoving match with someone in parking lots once; it lasted about 2 seconds).

Pathetic.

HOWEVER, Constitution Kate is kind of hot.

Always, always, always remember that the Republicans stopped being the Party of Lincoln nearly half a century ago. Here’s Lee Atwater back in 1981 explaining how this new Neo-Confederate “Southern Strategy” got Nixon and Reagan elected:

‘You start out in 1954 by saying, ‘Ni–er, ni–er, ni–er.’ By 1968 you can’t say ‘ni–er’ — that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states’ rights and all that stuff. You’re getting so abstract now [that] you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is [that] blacks get hurt worse than whites.

”And subconsciously maybe that is part of it. I’m not saying that. But I’m saying that if it is getting that abstract, and that coded, that we are doing away with the racial problem one way or the other. You follow me — because obviously sitting around saying, ‘We want to cut this,’ is much more abstract than even the busing thing, and a hell of a lot more abstract than ‘Ni–er, ni–er.”’

Amazing, just amazing.
