No one cared that a lifelong Democrat didn't like interracial marriages until he became a Republican

Oops! When the media reported that Louisiana Justice of the Peace E. Keith Bardwell is a Republican, they left out one very important detail – he was a lifelong Democrat until switching his party affiliation in December, 2008.

That, of course, means that Bardwell was a registered Democrat when he declined to perform four previous interracial marriages.

In a remarkable coincidence, the media only jumped on the story when they could say a Republican was a raaaaaacist and ignored it when they would have been forced to say it was a Democrat who was a raaaaaacist.

Yet another reason we hate the media.
