THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

THE RAGGED KNEE AWARD FOR 2002 | 2002-04-27

Conservatives have given their movement to the neos. They condemn anything that challenges liberal policies prior to January 1, 1970, especially those aimed at getting rid of white people.

So when David Horowitz holds up a photo of Martin Luther King to respectable conservatives, they fall on their stomachs so hard that their knees are actually the highest points on their bodies.

Respectable conservatives were always good at groveling to liberals, but I never realized how incredibly good they were at groveling until the neoconservatives started speaking to them.

So the Ragged Knee Award this year goes to the conservative worshippers of David Horowitz. They have earned it and they will earn it more as the days go by.
