Oh brother ...

Listen to our dear leader field a question on Indian tribal sovereignty at the minority journalism conference. Trust me, I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as the assembled audience.

Postscript: For some comments on Bush's speech, let's turn to our Washington correspondent, Bugs Bunny. Bugs?

And for a more thorough analysis, how about Albor Ruiz of the NY Daily News.

Hart for Congress

In Part II of an ongoing series highlighting Republican congressional candidates, we wish to draw your attention to James Hart, who is running for Congress in Tennessee's 8th District.

The most noteworthy aspect of Hart's platform is his endorsement of government-sanctioned eugenics. He asks at the top of his website:

What if they [i.e. the "favored races"] had integrated?
  • There would never have been an electric light.
  • There would never have been an automobile.
  • There would never have been an airplane.

Hart calls for a "War on Poverty Genes" that would end welfare and lax immigration policies and focus on improving the quality of our national genes:

Our cities are being destroyed by dysgenic welfare and immigration. Why does Detroit look like it was hit by a nuclear bomb and Hiroshima look like it was on the side that won the war? Everyone knows the answer but is afraid to say. Because genes have a more devastating effect on civilization than nuclear bombs, and the reason for Detroit's decline is that there are less 'favored races' in Detroit with an average IQ of 85 and more 'favored races' in Japan with an average IQ of 104 ... The poverty genes of less 'favored races'*, which are spread by welfare and immigration, are destroying our cities no less than if they were hit by a nuclear bomb. Massive uncontrolled and illegal immigration portends not just the destruction of a few cities but of our whole civilization itself. If we had integrated with less 'favored races'* centuries ago, there would have never been an electric light. There would never have been an airplane. Unless we stop dysgenic welfare and immigration policies, the US will look like one big Detroit.

If only the Moors hadn't invaded Spain. Then we'd have no baths, no algebra, no Aristotle, and no science -- i.e. paradise.

You know that if a crackpot of this sort were running in a Democratic primary, he would get coverage from Fox News.

UPDATE

Mr. Hart has won the Republican primary and will challenge incumbent Democrat John Tanner in the November election.

The GOP was late in coming up with a rival candidate, and so Hart only ran against a write-in opponent.
