"Wishing You A White Christmas"

From Dangerblond, the femme formidable New Orleans blogger, who possesses major supersnark skills. If you're looking for politically correct, then move along, because it's not here.

You know, I’m kind of glad New Orleans is getting rid of all our black people. I really prefer Hispanics when it comes to menials. Have you noticed how they behave? They try as hard as they can to melt into the background and be invisible. This is preferable to the attitude of our former uppity negroes, who simply insist on being noticed and recognized as people. Let them assert their personhood somewhere else!

I appreciate the way the little brown people keep their eyes on the ground when they talk to me. It’s as though they instinctively recognize my blond superiority. Each time I interact with them, I am reminded of the movie “Mrs. Brown,” about Queen Victoria. In that movie, when the queen suddenly appears in the hallway, any servants who happen to be passing through there stop in their tracks and turn immediately to the wall. They stand there silently looking at the wall until the queen is well past them. This keeps the queen from having suffer the indignity of having a low class chamber maid look at her, or, god forbid, smile at her. This movie is a model of how the servant class should behave in the presence of their betters, and more people ought to do themselves the favor of watching it.

It’s also a very nice feature that the new Hispanic lower class does not speak much English. I speak a little Spanish, but I pretend not to, because one doesn’t like to waste one’s time conversing with the help. I don’t like to be bothered with tales of woe, of which poor people seem to have an endless supply. How tiresome. “Sorry, Emelda. No comprende!”

The new Latin servant class is not only properly humble, but they bow and scrape with appreciation for every crumb you throw their way. It truly makes my heart feel grand. I’ve seen them living in gutted out buildings with no electricity, driving cars that shouldn’t even be allowed on the road, and wearing absolute rags. Naturally, they don’t ask for much. All it takes to make them happy is some rice and beans, and what could be healthier than rice and beans?

With their frugal living habits and distaste for luxuries, you can get a Mexican for half what it costs to hire an African-American. Most of them are working in this country illegally anyway, so who are they going to complain to? Ha! It’s so nice for the rest of us when lower class people have no options.

Awesome!
