Cain Supporter Shocks Martin Bashir: I Made It To The Big Time on MSDNC

You have to love this story. Not only did Cain supporter Apostle Claver rally voters by declaring Democrats the "Party of the Ku Klux Klan, the Party of Jim Crow and the Party of Segregation," appearing on MSNBC with the highly-partisan Martin Bashir, he smiled hugely and said he had made the big time by appearing on MSDNC. See Bashir's angst-ridden response below.


MARTIN BASHIR, HOST: My next guest is a vocal supporter of Mr. Cain. So vocal indeed that some took offense at racially charged comments he made to an audience of supporters gathered for a Cain rally at a Texas dog track.

APOSTLE CLAVER, RAGINGELEPHANTS.ORG: It's the Democratic Party that's the racist. The Party of the Ku Klux Klan. The Party of Jim Crow. The Party of Bull Connor. The Party of segregation. The Party of the KKK. They are the racists. 
(END VIDEO CLIP)
BASHIR: And I’m delighted to say that we are joined now by Apostle Claver, founder and chairman of Raging Elephants.org with us from Houston. Good afternoon, sir.
CLAVER: Mr. Bashir, thank you for the invitation. I have made it to the big time - I am on MSDNC. I love it. 
BASHIR: Yeah, thank you, it’s not actually that…
Republicans have listened to these same charges for decades. Let Claver give it right back to them (and I bet he can back it up, because I can) and it's "offensive." Tsk, tsk. Bashir is an acrimonious, Europeanized little Leftist diva.
