Not Even Surprising

Okay so, Ray Myer, a member of the Texas Republican Party’s Platform Committee, spoke out loud.

 

 

I don’t know why that would make headlines.  After all, have you read the Texas Republican Party Platform?

Good Lord, Honey, if you give that guy a hot toddy or two, he’ll show you his civil war flag he carries while he wears his WWII helmet.  And his outfits show that he was on the losing side both times.  You’d think he’d learn.

“Is there anything wrong with saying they’re black and proud? Is there anything wrong with being an American Indian and saying that we’re red and proud?” Myers responded. “I mean, just like Black Lives Matter, white lives matter, too. We’re all in the same melting pot. Now why can’t we say, as Anglos, that we’re proud?”

Because, jerk, that’s not how racism works.  You’re the majority. You own most of the money and most of the power.

Myers is a 74-year-old activist who has been involved in GOP politics for decades. But “the pivotal political moment came when Obama came on the scene. I knew immediately that America was in trouble,” he said in an Empower Texans profile.

Yeah, that’s it. You got it. That is how racism works.

Thanks to Kyle for the heads up.
