This week's most incompetent attempt to play the race card?

I posted a link to a New York Times piece on the comparative states of single vs. married mothers. Now The 'New York Times' Misses the Mark on Inequality, Marriage from the The Nation replied, trying to argue that the reason that someone who was a single mother with 3 kids by multiple fathers was a guiltless victim not responsible for their own choices, though the women herself said in the original piece that "I’m in this position because of decisions I made." Here's a portion of that response (highlighting by me):

DeParle mentions positively Charles Murray’s contention that single motherhood is a “values” issue, not an economic one. Murray means working-class and lower-middle-class white people have abandoned traditional family values (they’re becoming like—oh no!—black people)

Though the respondent here seems to be asserting that opposition to single-parent families is somewhat racist, in reality it seems to be her statement that's the racist one. As I noted - and gave you evidence for - in my original posting, black people didn't start behaving like "black people" until around the time that welfare kicked in and their families began to disintegrate. Expecting black families to be falling apart seems more racist to me than anything else in the article.

Though Charles Murray's book Coming Apart: The State of White America, 1960-2010 focuses only on white americans, to quote Niall Ferguson's review at Amazon, his books shows "that race is not a significant determinant of social polarization in today's America. It is class that really matters."
