So, while going through Salon’s coverage of CPAC, the theme I really detected this year was gut-punching, overt racism. One of the most astounding examples—besides everything that falls out of Andrew Breitbart’s mouth—is one of the groups that manned a booth at CPAC, Youth for Western Civilization. And by “Western…
