Partisan racism survives the apocalypse

Walking Dead is an awesome series.  Hopefully it doesn't disappoint like Lost did.  While being a great series, it is not immune to the regurgitation of stereotypes that the left deems AOK.

Here is a link to a clip from the show.  I would've embedded it, but the person who posted it decided to opt against people embedding the video.  If you watch, right around the 1:45 mark, the character will say:

"... Playin' errand-boy for these pansy-asses, n***ers, and Democrats."

Now, the character Merle, has already been portrayed as a racist...  OK.  So his use of the n-bomb in this context is not surprising.  But, Democrats?  Yeah...  way to softball that one in Hollywood.  I highly doubt someone like Merle was ever politically active, yet we really had to bring politics into a world where there is no longer political parties?

Where else have I seen this?

Oh yeah, The Following, when Kevin Bacon comes across the serial-killers prison/brainwashing operation...  what did that den look like?

See the Tea Party sign in the background?  Yeah...  so this notion that Tea Party/Republicans are blind followers to some racist movement actually stems from the Leftist-Hollywood interpretation of the movement.
