They have to be bongo drums . . .


Just to keep our racial stereotypes straight, the racist drums Democrats are complaining of in Corker's ads have got to be
"bongos" not "tom-toms" (unless, perhaps, they are alleging the GOP is covering all its bases because some of us hicks may be prejudiced against "high yellow" Ford, Jr. for being native american).

But from the "I-wish-I-had-posted-and-not-just-commented-on-that" department": Over at The Media Blog they're talking about MSNBC's racist conspiracy watch. And they're pointing out that the same soundtrack used on the purported "natives are restless" ad are used in an ad that doesn't even mention Harold Ford, Jr. Incidentally, my first comment on the issue was here--look for FordisFreaky.
