Paul Jenkins: The GOP's White Supremacy
Politics on HuffingtonPost.com —
When a 19 year-old white supremacist recently gained a seat on the Palm Beach County Republican Executive Committee, the election created such an outcry that embarrassed local politicians used a technicality to block his seating. The entire process was buffoonish, although the views of the spawn of a grand wizard of the KKK and his supporters were not. Events such as this, or the stunning success of David Duke in Louisiana in 1990, occur every few years within the GOP, a reminder of the party's racist faction. Even more standard for Republicans, especially in the year that saw Barack Obama's election, are the off-key comments about uppitiness, ...

by Pam Spaulding
The former Ohio vote bag man Secretary of State and contender for the head of the RNC, Ken Blackwell, had this to say about the holiday CD sent to committee members by fellow candidate for the job, Chip Saltsman: “Unfortunately, there is hypersensitivity in the press regarding matters of race.

Top of the Ticket —
In an appearance on ABC's "The View" this morning, just-departed secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said she regretted that faulty intelligence had reported that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, but had no regrets that U.S. troops toppled dictator Saddam Hussein from power.
Rice announced recently that she hopes to return to Stanford University as a political science professor after eight controversial years in the Bush administration -- first as national security adviser and then as secretary of State.
She demurred on questions about whether she voted for Barack Obama, ...
Jesse Larner: Power and Protest, in Iran and at Home
Politics on HuffingtonPost.com —
A long time ago in a different life, when the Iranian Islamic Revolution was less than a decade old, I was a student at the small New England college where Mansour Farhang taught (and still teaches) political science. Farhang had been the Iranian ambassador to the UN in the early days of the revolt against the Shah, before Khomeini's radical agenda was fully understood, before the ouster of the first post-revolutionary elected president, Abolhassan Bani-Sadr. Farhang resigned his post when the Iranian government refused to release the American embassy hostages, and went into exile. In the 1990s, he made the unpleasant discovery that he had something in common ...
