ALLEN DAZZLES ON MEET THE PRESS
By Tweed
Virginia Senator George Allen, during the extended interview with Liberal smear-monger Tim Russert and his opponent, Jim Webb, refrained from making a single racial slur during the entirety of the program. Allen's stunning display is destined to lock-up his re-election campaign and has sent Webb's campaign into a tailspin.
"We're thrilled," gushed Allen campaign advisor Vince Lee, "not one kike, wop, halfrican, spic, darkie, towel-head, niggra', macaca, kraut, saboo, or nothin!"
Senator Webb's campaign insiders say that headquarters had been counting on at least one slip from Allen to ensure victory. "Not even a "wet-back" when he was talking about his gardener. This is bad."
Pundits say that Allen's ability to refrain from racial epithet's in public could lock this one up in the conservative Old Dominion. Others point to some of Allen's comments as providing room for a nuanced analysis that clearly demonstrates his racist tendencies. Niel Jefferson points to this statement as one subject to that sort of interpretation:
"You know, Tim, I think our troops in the middle-east are doing a great job, because we're not that different. From what I've seen from TV, your average A-rab doesn't look much different from your average Eyetalian - and we got some of them makin' pizzas in Fairfax, but we gotta keep an eye on them, you know. It's not like we're in Niger (am I saying that right?) where, you know, they're different. . . you know."
Most agree that using such comments as evidence of Allen's racism would be difficult in an election.
After the interview, Allen did confess that he has felt pressure of late. "I was as nervous as a jigaboo at a Klan rally. Just glad I could pull it off."
