Scarborough demands McCaskill condemn threats to Wilson and his family. And she does.

Scarborough vs McCaskill

From the story,

McCaskill pointed out that even if Wilson is acquitted by the grand jury, he may face federal civil rights charges later on. 

Everything coming from the FBI and other involved federales says not.

She then began to explain why the black community's "rush to judgment" in the case against Wilson was understandable when Scarborough cut in.

As well he should have done.

But her responses to his demands concerning the threats are just what they should have been, apart from the "goes without saying" dodge.

That means left to herself she was going to leave any condemnation of those threats unsaid so as not to displease black voters of the Democratic Party base, as the White House may yet, as Al Sharpton may yet, and as Holder may yet.

Except if they leave such condemnations unspoken it will be an outrage and very likely because they personally share the "black community's" racist "rush to judgment" in the case, and not merely to avoid displeasing black voters.

We have seen O react like a true race man several times, as though he was a twin of Reverend Al or maybe Reverend Wright, when that racial chip on the shoulder has just gotten too heavy to carry without blurting out, even for him.

Remember the Gates affair?

When every white liberal in the country was egging O on, in the spirit of Rev. Al?

Anyway, what makes this interesting to the folks at TPM is that Scarborough is quite distressed, even angry (he "rages," they say) about the threats.

People have publicly put a price on the policeman's head and the heads of family members.

They clearly disapprove of his ire.
