I've never seen Bush all giddy over campaigning in minority districts
Come to think of it, I can't recall ANY images of Bush reaching out to minority voters at all in this campaign. But, the Conneticut-born and raised loser is all giddy over 'cowboy hats'.

George Bush doesn't care at all about black people.



article:

The Red-State Revue, Starring G.W. Bush

He has shucked the coat and tie for shirtsleeves and slipped a little more drawl into his voice as he hits mainly conservative, rural communities. "It's good to be in a part of the country where the cowboy hats outnumber the ties," Bush told thousands of supporters in Billings, Mont., on Thursday, squeezing in a rally just two days before the MetraPark Arena's scheduled "Spay-Neuter Clinic."

And he seems fired up by flag-waving crowds that greet him as a rock star, with young women screaming for him to come shake hands, even if elitists in Washington have written him off. He would love nothing more than to prove all the prog-naw-sti-ka-tors and phil-ah-suh-phi-zers wrong, and score another against-the-odds victory.

1. That's because we can see thru his.......
bullshit. The codewords, the fake-ass southern drawl, and cowboy hats are nothing more than a substitute for white sheets and hoods which he doesn't have the balls or honesty to wear.

He appeals to the baser instincts of THAT america. His whole political career has been to exploit the age old fear of minorities and darker skin. Fear is the repugs' weapon of choice.
