A Bright Line

That didn’t take long.
 
For all the Tea Party’s denials of racism, it took Tea Party poster boy Rand Paul about one news cycle to trip over race.
 
The federal government, he says, has no business telling a business it can’t discriminate on the basis of race.
 
Of course, he added, he “abhors” racism. He just doesn’t object to people practicing it.
 
This will be a good question to ask all candidates this year. Where, for example, does Senator Burr stand?
 
Or, to pick up on Carter’s blogs, where do Bernie Reeves and Bill Randall stand?
