Paul Ryan’s White Hood - Rich Lowry - POLITICO Magazine

Paul Ryan’s White Hood - Rich Lowry - POLITICO Magazine: "“Everybody’s got to get involved,” Ryan said. “You need to get involved yourself – whether through a good mentor program or some religious charity, whatever it is, to make a difference, and that’s how we help resuscitate our culture.” (Note the possessive pronoun: our culture.)

This wasn’t a “dog whistle” to the civic-minded, it was an explicit call to arms to help out in “troubled neighborhoods” (to use Obama’s evidently more palatable formulation). That almost none of Ryan’s attackers had the decency to mention this part of his answer tells you everything you need to know about their credibility."
