The blog Shakesville keeps track of racism and sexism in the 2008 campaign — not surprising sexism is way ahead! She hasn’t posted anything about this double-whammy mash up of racism and sexism directed against Michelle Obama, in which Zsa Zsa Gabor’s hubby referred to Ms. Obama as a “washerwoman.” Fortunately the Rev. Al Sharpton immediately commented on this outrage.

How did I learn about all this? Well, I happened to be flipping channels at a hotel in New Brunswick and came across the story on Fox News.
