Of all things, good sense is the most fairly distributed: everyone thinks he is so well supplied with it that even those who are the hardest to satisfy in every other respect never desire more of it than they already have.

The Presidential Race (and by "race" we mean, you know, skin color, athletic strengths, and cuisine)

Jon Stewart on the "racist" tones in John McCain's infamous "Paris Hilton" ad spot:

What a great clip, especially the first 5:45, as I didn't find the "Race Genie" especially humorous or insightful. Thank you Theo for bringing the clip to my attention. It's this kind of abuse that needs to be heaped more frequently and thoroughly on anybody who tries to make race an issue in this election.

By the way, Jason Kenney makes the interesting observation that McCain wasn’t even the first to compare Obama to Hilton. It was, in fact, Sen. Obama himself.

What a racist.
