Friedersdorf: Why Won't Steve King Assimilate and Embrace American Values?

Exactly
Along the way, Friedersdorf quotes this great passage from Chris Rock:

“To say that black people have made progress would be to say they deserve what happened to them before. ... That’s not black progress. That’s white progress … There have been smart, educated, beautiful, polite black children for hundreds of years. The advantage that my children have is that my children are encountering the nicest white people that America has ever produced. Let’s hope America keeps producing nicer white people.”

Damn, that's right on the money.

Anyway: yo, Steve King: get with the American project, ya damn lunatic.
