Lisa Schiffren, a former Dan Quayle aide, writing on the National Review blog, on how being mixed-race proves Sen. Obama must be a Communist:

“For a white woman to marry a black man in 1958, or 60, there was almost inevitably a connection to explicit Communist politics. (During the Clinton Administration we were all introduced to then U. of Pennsylvania Professor Lani Guinier — also a half black/half Jewish, red diaper baby.)… Political correctness was invented precisely to prevent the mainstream liberal media from persuing the questions which might arise about how Senator Obama’s mother, from Kansas, came to marry an African graduate student. Love? Sure, why not? But what else was going on around them that made it feasible? … It was, of course, an explicit tactic of the Communist party to stir up discontent among American blacks, with an eye toward using them as the leading edge of the revolution.”

But of course, she’s not biased over his racial makeup or anything like that. Or playing on the old segregationist line about how all those uppity you-know-whats fighting for civil rights were just pawns of Commies and outside agitators.

Just think, Obama’s not even the nominee yet, just the front runner. Makes me wonder how much uglier the right wing attacks are going to become.
