Well played, Steven Crowder. Soon-to-be ex-Food Network host Paula Deen is dominating the news today with her no-show at this morning’s “Today” show, a videotaped apology and word that Food Network will not be renewing her contract following an exposé in the National Enquirer detailing racist statements and behavior. What did she say that was so offensive? Crowder decided to have some fun and exchange Deen’s comments for a couple of quotes from someone named Joe Biden. Whatever happened to that guy, anyway?
“You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking.” – Paula Deen. Is that racist?

No, that was Sarah Palin, wasn’t it?
@scrowder Or that she "forgot he was black for an hour."

Don’t mistake Crowder’s trolling as excusing Deen’s comments. The fact that the consequences of her words have been so swift and apparently severe is proof, says Crowder, that (certain vice presidents excepted) America is not so accepting of racism as pundits like to claim.
The fact that Paula Deen's comments are so uniquely shocking (and they are) is proof that racism is not as common as Leftists claim.

If half of America were truly racist (as Leftists claim), then Paula Deen's comments would be completely uncontroversial.

Paula Deen's comments are shocking because in today's America, true racism is rare and abnormal. That's a good thing.

What have we learned from this exercise, in which Crowder calls Deen’s comments “uniquely shocking” and says the outrage over them is a good thing? Apparently that Crowder is an unrepentant racist, a racism denier and an idiot.
.@scrowder BWAHAHAHAHA. Really? Ooookay there. What’s shocking is that she’s a popular celebrity doing it and justified doing it.

@scrowder Rare and abnormal? Where the hell do you live? Racism is alive and well in 'Murica.

@scrowder The naivete of your statement is shocking and very sad. Pretending racism doesn't exist makes the fight against it more difficult.

@scrowder @Ddad99 Actuallythe unconscious racism is quantified all the time in social science. The right just ignores social scientists

@scrowder btw Deen's comments are 'shocking' cuz she slipped up and said things on TV that you racists usually save for your racist friends

Can we get a conservative in here to help translate?
What @scrowder is trying to say is that yes, racism exists but its not nearly as big a problem as the media would have you believe.
— Brandon Morse (@TheBrandonMorse) June 21, 2013
It seems racism (on the Right, at least) is still a much bigger problem than anyone dares to admit. Maybe it’s time for the government to convene a special task force to tackle the problem — is Biden available?
