As an addendum to
John's fine post, let me add a ray of hope, courtesy of comedian Chris Rock, who gave
an interview to Esquire Magazine a couple months ago.
Rock was asked for his opinion about the Tea Partiers - the same group of people, incidentally, who loudly call for President Obama's birth certificate - and the comedian, who proved he just may be the smartest man on the planet (which still makes him dumber than 50% of the population), delivered this wonderful answer:
"Kids always act up the most before they go to sleep. And when I see the Tea Party and all this stuff, it actually feels like racism is almost over... This is the act-up before the sleep... and next think you know they're f**king knocked out. And that's what's going on in the country right now."
I hope he's right.
