Ann Althouse notes that Rolling Stone's Matt Taibbi goes all racial on Mitt Romney's appearance before the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People ("a genuinely repugnant human being [and] a grasping corporate hypocrite", thanks for the link to Instapundit), as do, elsewhere, The Daily Mail's Toby Harnden, Salon's Alex Seitz-Wald ("what if Romney went to Houston intending to spark boos all along?"), and the Daily Beast's Michael Tomasky (Romney is nothing but "a spineless, disingenuous, supercilious, race-mongering pyromaniac").This leads No Pasarán to make the following observation, which I think all can agree is highly astute, highly original, and highly unexpected (with apologies to Harry Stein):
It doesn't matter WHAT @MittRomney says at the #naacp, the @naacp is going to call it #racist ANYway! (As will the usual racebaiters…)
