Donny Deutsch, 'Coconut' Bigot, Typical Democrat
During an interview with MSNBC's Joy Behar on Feb. 21, MSNBC's Donny Deutsch let his bigot flag fly. While fulminating against the tea-party movement in general and in particular against the candidate known as "the tea-party candidate," who gave the rousing opening speech at CPAC, Deutsch blurted: "You almost need that blank piece of paper. That's the new model. Like, you know, this coconut (Marco) Rubio down in Florida."
In settings like MSNBC (but usually backstage) the term coconut (brown on the outside white on the inside) is generally used to castigate "Hispanics" who ignore marching orders barked by Democratic/MSM drill sergeants--same as "Oreo" for similarly uppity blacks.
Never mind that the Cuban-American Marco Rubio is probably more purely Caucasian than Elvis Presley, Hank Williams, Oral Roberts, Johnny Depp among many other southerners who boast Choctaw/Cherokee heritage. We'll deal with Deutsch's stupidity in another article. This one's about Deutsch's bigotry, a derivative of his stupidity.
Exit polls show that Cuban-Americans voted against Obama by the highest margins--and by far!--of any U.S. ethnic group, including "anglos." So we're fair-game for ethnic slurs--and have been for decades. In fact, Deutsch has as much reason to fulminate against Cuban-Americans as the most virulent nativist. Regarding the U.S. political mainstream, Cuban-Americans obstinately refuse to assimilate. To wit:
The Democratic Party controls the U.S. legislature, most state legislatures, most state governorships and boasts--by far--the most registered voters in the U.S.
Yet these insufferable Cuban-Americans have traditionally snubbed all pied pipers from America's majority party, along with their allies and cohorts in the America's mainstream media. Instead Cuban-Americans have always gone whole-hog for Republicans--from Nixon to Reagan to both Bushes. In the last two presidential elections the voters of their adopted country gave George W. Bush barely half of their votes, whereas these exasperating Cuban-Americans --again oblivious, or brazenly defiant of their countrymen --gave him 80 per cent of theirs.
