The racism of liberals/lefties is simply breath-taking. In this case, it springs from their inability to grasp the possibility that there are rational intelligent people out there - oftentimes more rational and intelligent than they - who do not hold liberal/lefist political views; much the same way that the old Soviet Union attempted to medicalize political dissent by putting political dissidents into psychiatric hospitals, American liberals/lefties attempt to marginalize political dissent by racializing everything, assuming, without any basis in fact, that they are the non-racists, and drawing the unjustified conclusion that therefore anyone who disagrees with them must, ipso facto, be a racist.
We saw this asininity on full display earlier this year, when all the "good liberals" (makes you think of "good Germans," don't it?) came out and agreed that it was the "consensus" that all Obamacare dissidents were simply closet racists reacting in a racist manner to His High Holy Effervescence, the Lord and Prophet Zero-bama.
Now, with Mr. Steele, we get to see the flip side of that same ugly, racial coin: if any American who happens to have too many ancestors who came originally from Africa disagrees with the policies of liberals/lefties, then he must be an Uncle Tom, or as this DUmmie put it, a "stepin fetchit" - a traitor to his race (funny how you only here terms like that from liberals on the one hand, and from looney-tune white supremacists on the other hand - perhaps there's a deeper underlying similarity between liberals and white supremacists, hmm?).
