Jesse With Color

Marvin was so kind as to point out the story of Charlotte Mayor Pat McCrory and his valiant efforts to scare South North Carolina's Queen City to safety.

By way of returning the favor I'd like to call readers' attention to another of the Old North State's race-baiting ideologues. No, not Jesse Helms...but the next best thing: Vernon Robinson.

For those of you in the Rocky Mountain state who haven't heard of Robinson think of a black Tom Tancredo.

Anyway, it seems that Jordan must have read Marvin's post and decided that a Pakistani filming skylines would be a boon to his impending primary battle. Knowing Robinson he might have preferred the perp in Marvin's story to have been Mexican. But hey, Mexican, Pakistani, they're all dangerous.

Ahh. Kinda like the good 'ol days when Jesse Helms was running against Harvey Gantt. Same shit, different pol.
