George Allen: American Idiot

I just love it when Sen. George Allen (R - VA), calls the Indian gentleman who is following him around on the campaign trail a "macaca," which is a form of monkey, and tells him "Welcome to America." First off, as he's in the Senate, can't he at least be able figure out the difference between an Indian and a black guy? If you are going to make a racial slur, make it the right one and call him a turban head or something witty like that. Second, Mr. S. R. Sidarth is an American citizen, born and raised in Virginia, who goes to UVA so he was welcomed to America a long time ago by the doctor who delivered him. Not only that, he's a potential voter! Who cares if he is trailing him because he works for the Webb campaign (Jim Webb is his Democratic opponent). If he was crafty enough, he'd be able to win his vote.

FYI, I just contributed $10 to Jim Webb, George Allen's opponent, who I really hope wins (and not just because he's a Democrat but because his opponent is a racist idiot).
