Rep. Charles Rangel. (D-N.Y.) was asked what he thought about the President.

"Well" he said, "I really think he shatters the myth of white supremacy once
and for all."

That sure sounds like a racist remark to me. Why can he get away with
saying defamatory remarks such as that and white republicans such as
Trent Lott get hung from their heels for saying something nice to a
fellow Senator who is celebrating their 100th birthday?

The remarks were not at all similar. Lott's clear implilcation was that the
country would be better off if blacks did not have full civil rights.
Rangel did not recommend any such policy.

And Lott is not alone. White supremacists are still a force in politics in
some areas.

And Rangel's remark was very funny.
