Dreaming of a Very White Xmas....
Ah, those fabulous Red state values....

"Some spectators at Pulaski's annual Christmas parade were dismayed when they saw among the parade entries a vehicle plastered with Ku Klux Klan and Confederate bumper stickers and a hand-lettered door sign with holiday greetings from the white-supremacist group.
The old, lime-green Ford Bronco offended Jacob Trompeter, who's Jewish and said his father survived Nazi prison camps. He says he's never seen anything like it in his 50 years as a Pulaski resident. "

3. That's alright --somone will be along shortly...
That's alright --somone will be along shortly to explain to us how
this doesn't really reveal the South's inherent racism (or stupdity)
and how they have Klan rallies "up North too", blowing right past
the point that this was an apparently-sanctioned vehicle in this
fine town's Christmas parade.

4. Sorry to say, you've hit the nail on the head....
Hey, but at least the Klan wasn't "bashing Christians."
