LOL. Salon, Alternet and Daily Kos contributor Chauncey DeVega thinks National Review’s Kevin Williamson is black:
Priceless comedy gold! I think I caught Kevin Williamson passing. Looks like one of my cousins and now he is upset. https://t.co/YUrFV7wJuy

Our friends @dailykos seem to be under the impression that I'm black. https://t.co/IxR8xFCOeB pic.twitter.com/qFhmWN9hxq

Is @KevinNR black? To suggest he is could be the crime of the century! Right-wing trough urinal dwellers fall on fainting couch! The horror!

You are a joyless person. No sense of humor. Why does being black upset yo? Are you sure? Could be in the woodpile! https://t.co/jUWvQRutDY

Damn. Really, the essence of you as a white man is so hurt by the fact that someone thought your were "black"? https://t.co/A8hZlrIFxh
