Like George Felix Allen, Conrad Burns is racist and stupid, too

Oh. My. God:

Republican Sen. Conrad Burns [Racist-MT] says the United States is up against a faceless enemy of terrorists who "drive taxi cabs in the daytime and kill at night."

Actually, this is quite understandable; when you're the back seat of a cab, you can't see the driver's face, and so it's quite natural to be terrified. After all, the driver might be one of the Not Us.

I hope, though, that since Conrad's obviously not just wetting the bed, that for the sake of the rest of us who take taxis he keeps a personal supply of Depends and sanitary wipes with him at all times.

Say, Burns emitted this noxious statement a fundraiser Leadfoot was doing for him; I wonder what the First Lady thought of this racist buffoonery?

Thank you!
