Last night's episode of The Daily Show featured an instant-classic segment on voter suppression and I.D. laws starring a painfully honest avatar for the darkest (whitest) corner of the Republican Party. The thing about Buncombe County Republican precinct chair Don Yelton, a conservative activist described as "the Rush Limbaugh of Western North Carolina," is that he's not hiding.......

.... his Top 5 Racist Remarks Delivered in Front of a Camera, each expressed with generous amounts of sincerity:

5. "Matter of fact, one of my best friends is black."

4. "When I was a young man, you didn't call a black a black, you called him a negro."

3. "I had a picture one time of Obama sittin' on a stump as a witch doctor and I posted that on Facebook. I was making fun of the white half of Obama, not the black half."

2. "If [the law] hurts the whites so be it. If it hurts a bunch of lazy blacks that want the government to give them everything, so be it."

1. "Now you have a black person using the term n***** this and n***** that and it's okay for them to do it."

Mandvi, rendered nearly speechless, responds, "You know that we can hear you, right?"
