Lars Larson: Liberals have a renaming problem … again

The Northwest Nonsense

Ever wonder why America’s political left wing is so ready to tear down statues of real heroes like President Abraham Lincoln?

Consider the Cesar Chavez firestorm going on right now.

A major investigation with lots of personal testimony documents that the farm labor leader previously revered by American progressives was a child rapist and serial abuser of young women.

Proof of the charges is essentially impossible at this point.

Chavez died more than 30 years ago.

Many of the victims are very old and most of the incidents happened more than half a century ago.

But in the meantime, liberal blue cities put Chavez’s name on a lot of stuff to honor him.

Portland has a major street named for the man who now appears to have been a pedophile.

In a dark irony, North Portland has a K thru 8 school named for him too.

The political left picks some real perverts.

In the Northwest Former Governor Neil Goldschmidt, unindicted child rapist. “Tiger suit” Congressman David Wu. Teen boy chasing former Mayor Sam Adams.

At least the blue city folks now scrubbing Chavez’s name off have lots of practice.

That’s the Rose City Rap. Join me at noon on KXL for 4 hours of Honestly provocative talk. I’m Lars Larson
