I was flipping around the dial tonight and just for the heck of it stopped on "Nightline." I haven't watched it since Koppel left. What caught my attention was a story they were doing on locally produced whisky, aka moonshine. Moonshine is one of those folksy things you hear rumors about from friends or relatives or see depicted on tv shows like "The Dukes of Hazzard" or "The Andy Griffith Show". It's a part of American folklore. The one thing that kept coming to mind as I watched this program was the timing. "Why" I wondered, "are they doing a program on this kind of topic the day before Thanksgiving?" " Why do it at all?" Then it hit me like a ton of bricks. The area they kept showing in the report was southern Virginia. The correspondent kept referring to moonshine as being a tradition "in this part of the country." They even interviewed a guy, naturally white, even though running a still is color blind, who confirmed that yes indeedy at one time he ran a still, as did his daddy and his daddy's daddy. It goes back for generations. Some of you at this point may be thinking "So what?" Well here's the so what. What the report does not directly say but implies so strongly they might as well have, is that most of the people in the southern part of Virginia are white, moonshining whisky drinking rubes. So why go after them? Because the msm would like you to believe that these "rubes" are the reason that a Republican was just elected governor of the state. What other explanation could there be? It couldn't possibly be that people have finally woken up and realized what a mistake they made, no no. This time the "rubes" were motivated because they wanted to stick it in the eye of that "darkie" in the White house. Well doesn't it follow that if they're white, make and drink whisky, that they must be racist as well, and of course that and that alone is the reason, well the new manufactured reason, ( some of you may remember that up until now it was because the Dems had a weak candidate who disavowed Obama until the last minute) that the Republican won in the until all to recently, newly minted "Blue State" of Virginia. None of this was ever directly stated, but my oh my how they do imply. Remember you heard it hear first, if in fact you do hear it anywhere else.
Happy Thanksgiving.
