What's the opposite of 'dog-whistle'? Steve Clemons of the Washington Note goes there
From Helene Cooper's White House Memo in today's NY Times:
"Barack Obama is bringing in all of the pit bulls and attack dogs and spear hunters into his administration," said Steve Clemons, a fellow at the New America Foundation who also writes a blog called The Washington Note. "We all thought he was going to be a 'tending the fields' type."
"Spear hunters?" A 'tending the fields' type?" Wasn't this sh*t supposed to magically disappear after we elected an African-American?
