UPDATE: I shot my mouth off a little too quick. The article I had read didn’t have a direct quote from Harriet Christian. It only quoted people saying things like I quoted below. I had thought Harriet Christian was just displeased with how the democrats were handling the florida delegates. Now that I’ve had a chance to see the Youtube video, turns out she’s made some rather rascist, and sexist comments. The nitwit said something to the effect of “the only reason a black man has gotten this far is because his opponent is a woman.” What the heck? I take back my props for Harriet Christian. Turns out she’s a rascist, while I was just displeased with the proceedings in Florida.

Some woman named Harriet Christian turned out to be as upset over the whole “half-vote” deal reached at the RBC meeting as I mentioned I was earlier. Except that she was actually there! She actually yelled out that she was going to vote for McCain instead! Now that’s a “whole nother can of worms.” But we won’t go there. Apparently she wasnt the only raucous one there, though. Plenty of people were yelling, and being generally disruptive. And understandably so. One person in the crowd is said to have yelled out, “How can you call yourselves Democrats if you don’t count the vote?” And I have to ask the same.

Harriet Christian got so vocal, reports say, that she was removed from the proceedings by security. Now how’s that for free speech? It’s like yelling out to try and stop a train wreck and being told to sit down and keep quiet, else you might disturb the other passengers. Well, kudos to her for speaking up. And props to the other citizens of this country that refused to act like we’re just spectators watching a bunch of pricks in ivory towers decide our future for us.

Here’s to you, Harriet Christian! Shame on you, Harriet Christian. Your fifteen minutes of fame were wasted on making yourself known as a petty racist.

Don’t tread on me.
