ANOTHER LIBERAL NOOSE-ANCE
October 17, 2007
Liberals are so invigorated by the story about a noose being found on
an obscure Columbia University professor's door that now nooses are
popping up all over New York City. Liberals love to make believe the
Night Riders are constantly at their doors.
I'll be shocked by a noose appearing on a college campus the day an
actual racist does it.
Could Columbia at least produce one student or professor who supports
racism before holding another "rally against racism"? Every concrete
example of the racism allegedly sweeping the nation's campuses keeps
turning out to be a fraud. Far from "institutional racism," there is
"institutional racial hoaxism" run amok in this country. Will anyone
rally against that?
Out of legions, here are just a few hoax hate crimes on college
campuses.
-- In 1997, at Duke University, a black doll was found hanging by a
noose from a tree at the precise spot where the Black Student Alliance
was to be holding a rally against racism. Two black students later
admitted they were the culprits and were immediately praised for
bringing attention to the problem of racism on campus. Indeed, four
years later the president of Duke gave a baccalaureate address
nostalgically describing the hoax as a "protest" against racism. Next
stop: the Nobel Peace Prize.
-- In 2003, vile racial epithets were scrawled on the dorm room doors
at Ole Miss, producing mass protests and a "Say No to Racism" march.
And then it turned out the graffiti had been written by black
students, against whom no charges were brought. A "Say Yes to Racism"
rally at Ole Miss was later canceled due to lack of interest.
-- In 2005, obscenity-laced racist and anti-Semitic messages appeared
on dormitory walls at the College of Wooster in Ohio. The fliers were
instantly blamed on "typical white males," even though all the letter
I's in the epithets were dotted with little hearts. Breadcrumbs left
by the culprits included the message "Vote Goldwater" among the
obscenities. The matter was dropped and flushed down the memory hole
when the perpetrators turned out to be a group of leftist students led
by a black studies major.
-- Just this year, anti-Muslim fliers were put out on the George
Washington University campus -- by leftists, including a member of
"Iraq Veterans Against War." When it was thought the leaflets were
from the conservative group Young Americans For Freedom, the dean
called for the expulsion of the culprits and the university demanded
that YAF officers sign a statement disavowing "hate speech." But when
it turned out leftists had distributed the fliers, the matter was
dropped faster than Larry Craig was dropped from Mitt Romney's
campaign.
The one real example of racism on a college campus in recent memory
was perpetrated against white men of the Duke lacrosse team. As that
injustice was being perpetrated, gender and ethnic professors at Duke
kept droning on about the "racism and sexism" students "live with
every day" -- as the professors put it in an open letter that falsely
presumed the players were guilty of rape. We don't expect a rally
against the prejudiced professors, but an apology might be nice.
Playing the game of He Who Is Offended First Wins, Americans seek
status not by claiming to be rich or of royal lineage, but by
portraying themselves as victims. In one recent hoax hate crime, a
white woman professor at Claremont McKenna College said her car had
been vandalized with racist and anti-Semitic graffiti, with the words
"Shut Up!" spray-painted on the hood of her car.
She was not black or Jewish, but had recently converted to Judaism and
spoke out against racism. So she was a victim! After the vandalism of
her car, she promptly became Queen for a Day. Far from "silenced,"
this anonymous mountebank was given a national microphone to bore us
with her race-gender-culture theories. The campus was shut down for a
day for anti-racism rallies in the charlatan's honor. Then
eyewitnesses identified her as the one who had spray-painted her own
car, and the pity party was over.
These liberal racism-hunters are like dirty old men who spend their
days poring through pornography in order to better denounce it -- but
enough about the Warren court.
Assuming against all reason and experience that the Columbia noose is
not another hoax by a high-status victim, how is it that a pimply
adolescent can cause such tumult in liberal New York City?
Liberals claim to believe the Klan has established a beachhead at
Columbia University, Bill O'Reilly is head of the Manhattan branch,
Rush Limbaugh despises the troops, I'm planning a pogrom from the
heart of Manhattan, and George Bush is establishing fascism in
America.
Some anonymous liberal hag on Air America Radio, which no one knew was
still on the air, fell down outside her Park Avenue apartment this
week, and her liberal colleagues were claiming it was Kristallnacht.
If it rains after a liberal washes his car, they say it's a right-wing
dirty trick.
Liberals love nothing more than these constant self-righteous-athons
-- as if they would ever have the courage to stand up for any cause
not universally supported by everyone around them.
