Camp Niggerhead is no big deal.
Michelle Bachmann, who made the misfortunate mistake of claiming she had anecdotal evidence that the HPV vaccine that Mr. Perry approved for young girls throughout Texas caused retardation, wouldn’t even touch this story.
In short, conservatives didn’t care. It’s only a racial epithet after all.
In an interview on Fox News Sunday, Mr. Cain said that there isn’t a more vile, negative word than the nigger word and for Mr. Perry’s family to leave it on a rock at the entrance of their leased space as long as they did is just plain insensitive to a lot of black people in this country.
The next day Mr. Cain was singing a totally different tune.
On Monday, Mr. Cain did a total one eighty and said that he didn’t care about the camp.
He said that he understood that Mr. Perry said he painted over the rock with the word that was so offensive just twenty four hours earlier and that was the end of that.
He didn’t care and the story was over. Who yanked Cain’s chain?
Generally speaking many conservative simply don’t care about racism. It’s never a problem to see that somebody on the right might be racially insensitive. The problem is the person who identifies the person who might be a racist.
Racism is to many conservatives what catnip is to many cats. They enjoy it and it can be somewhat intoxicating. It’s like a dirty little secret that they can share amongst themselves to show how well they fit in and how they really do understand the need to protect traditional values that seem to run along the lines of white privilege. It’s why we see so many conservative politicians caught with their hand in the racially insensitive cookie jar.
And when one of their racist club members gets a little too careless, conservatives are more likely to rally around that person instead of ostracize them.
They become a solid brick wall of protection for racial intolerance. And in his attempt to run Mr. Perry down, Herman Cain ran into that solid brick wall like Wile E. Coyote chasing the road runner.
These conservatives are more offended by the alleged political correctness of people pointing at their racism than the racism itself. And for Mr. Cain to keep poking at this hornet’s nest could backfire significantly. Better to let these sleeping dogs lie.
And Mr. Cain wonders why the vast majority of black people are brainwashed to stay away from the GOP.
