Washington Post invites White Pride advocate to trash Edwards and Obama

Glenn Greenwald exposes Kathleen Parker's previously expressed racist sentiments towards Obama, and questions the Washington Post editor's judgement in inviting such a person to write a column essentially calling John Edwards and Barack Obama gay. From the original article:

"Well, at least they didn't kiss.

I was bracing myself for the lip lock Wednesday when John Edwards endorsed Barack Obama."

PS To those who may not have heard of Glenn Greenwald, I'll just say that if I could only read one blog it would definitely be his. I discovered Greenwald's first blog, "Unclaimed Territory" in December of 2005 when the NSA warrantless wiretapping scandal broke. No one has been a more effective explainer of constitutional law or more accurate and fierce in the field of media criticism.
