Listen, I just want to say one thing. Having been in the South in the '60s and Los Angeles, in Watts and northern urban areas, when we were evolving as a country, I'm thinking of all the bigots and rednecks and people I met along the way. I'm saying to them, "Take this." You know?
I love this quote, because it encapsulates both the arrogance and condescension of Mr. Brokaw and his ilk. You see, Tom has always been a visionary who is better than those bigots and rednecks down in the south -- he even was way back in the 60s! This is how he views America, as a place filled with racist bigots who have been put in their place by the election of Barack the Great, an outcome that Mr. Brokaw and company fought so hard for during the campaign.
