Allen Just "Made Up" the Word Macaca

Allen does not need to be anywhere near the halls of power.

Having a noose, a confederate flag and a picture of Confederate troops in his office and home, speaks volumns more than calling a dark-skined person by the word "macaca," hideous though that was.

This guys is a true, dyed-in-the-wool rascist, with all the usual trappings.

Remember, not many of the guys wear bedsheets anymore. Kinda makes 'em stand out in a crowd.

Crooks and Liars � Allen Just �Made Up� the Word Macaca:

Timmeh really had Senator Allen squirming this morning over his racist tendencies. Not only did Allen call a dark-skinned Webb campaigner 'macaca' , even though he just 'made up' the word and didn't know it's considered a racist slur, and opposed a Martin Luther King Jr. holiday as a member of the Virginia House of Delegates in 1984, but Russert calls him out on an AP article citing how he 'used to keep a confederate flag in his living room, a noose in his law office and a picture of confederate troops in his governors office.' Politics and 'confederate pride' aside, how do you explain keeping a noose in your office?

That symbolizes nothing other than oppression and hatred towards African-Americans. This Nation article points out, Allens racism goes far beyond 'macaca' and S.R. Sidarth.
