GOP Tries to Celebrate Mandela, and Ends Up Showing Off Its Base Base

GOP leaders from John Boehner to Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, and Eric Cantor thought they could join the Mandela-was-a-great-leader party, but, uh, maybe not. Talking Points Memo has a good rundown. We see the emergence of a great 2014 ad campaign:

Got Hate?

Maybe Clint could have a conversation with invisible GOP racists. (They're pretty visible.)

About the American Human

The American Human is written by Calvin Ross, a retired teacher who at various points in life has been a musician, woodworker, restaurateur, narrator, English teacher in Japan, novelist, technology journalist, and private tutor to Japanese children here in the U.S.

Happily residing in the wine country of Sonoma County north of San Francisco, Calvin has lived in the Philippines, the Netherlands, and the aforementioned Japan, as well as in Chicago, Colorado, Georgia, and many different towns in California, including, of all places, the Mojave Desert.

Calvin, you may note quickly, is a liberal progressive who doesn't think being called a socialist is all that bad, especially since he sort of would like living in Denmark if it weren't so cold. He blogs because he can.
