It certainly is an indication that, to the RNC, Breitbart's trashing of Ms. Sherrod and the NAACP is at the very least a non-issue and, more probably, a praiseworthy achievement. If anyone has any doubts about the racism at the core of today's Republican Party this should settle the issue for them.
I say this without any sense of gloating or feeling of smug superiority. Racism in this country is by no means the sole province of the Republicans but the degree to which they have tied their fortunes to an appeal to the basest aspects of human nature is a profound tragedy for this country. Sadly, I feel we have yet to see the worst of it and may never see the end of it.
