If there is one area where admitted socialist Lawrence O’Donnell would have any clue what he’s barking about, it would be ignorance. Yet even on this topic, Keith Olbermann’s stand-in proves to be a fatuous know-nothing.

Liberals fear the fiery countermoonbat Michele Bachmann, so O’Donnell et al. are waging a propaganda war to destroy her reputation. He can find only one explanation for her election to Congress: voters in her district are ignorant. That is to say, they are Caucasian. An actual quote:

“What makes those voters so ignorant? Well, for starters, they are whiter than the average district.”

At the intellectual playschool that constitutes MSNBC’s audience, watching a white guy proclaim that white people are inherently ignorant probably doesn’t even register on the absurdity meter. The important thing is that O’Donnell despises Caucasians, therefore he’s not racist.
