George Allen (R- Liar, Racist) Lets His Dogs Out

From Salon:

In the Post Wednesday, Chris LaCivita, a consultant for the Allen campaign, suggested that Shelton had fabricated the deer head story because a similar incident had been reported in North Carolina in January. Shelton said he had never heard of the North Carolina report, and called LaCivita's allegation ridiculous.

One other former teammate, George Korte, was quoted in an Allen campaign press release directly attacking Shelton, saying the radiologist had "deep-rooted problems with self identity." Korte offered nothing to back up his charge beyond a different memory of Allen's behavior.

On Sunday, Salon reported that two other teammates, who asked that their names be withheld for fear of retribution from the Allen camp, also remembered Allen using a racial epithet and displaying racist attitudes. Since then, two more acquaintances of Allen's have come forward to claim that they heard Allen use racial epithets to describe blacks. On Wednesday, the New York Times reported that Ellen G. Hawkins, an active Democrat and housewife in Virginia, remembers Allen badmouthing a black football player and using a racial slur more than once at a party in 1976. Allen's campaign manager called this account "another false accusation."

The Times, the Post and the New Republic have also reported that Christopher Taylor, an anthropology professor in Alabama who identifies himself as a Democrat, remembers Allen using the word "nigger" to describe black residents near his Virginia home in the early 1980s. The Allen campaign charged that Taylor was lying. "This guy is not credible period," said LaCivita, in an interview with the Post.

Let's recap:

Allen: Had a Confederate Flag in his office and showed visitors his toy Noose with pride (until it was pointed out to him --a few weeks ago-- that those were symbols of slavery); called an Indian-American "Macaca" and "welcomed him to America"; Denied being a racist and said he made up the well-known slur word "Macaca"; Denied being Jewish; Postponed an event until the day after Yom Kippur (because he's Jewish); and told everyone that he eats ham sandwiches.

But Allen and his dogs of war claim everyone else is lying.

What an asshat!

Congrats, George Allen! You're this week's Backside Of The Bell Curve winner!
