		In an interview conducted May 13, 1992, the rapper Sister Souljah was quoted in the Washington Post as saying: :"If fl people kill fl people every day, why not have a week and kill white people?" The remark was part of a longer response to the Los Angeles riots of 1992.

		Souljah is most famous (or shall I say infamous?) for being verbally smacked down by then-presidential candidate Bill Clinton in what is now commonly referred to as a “Sister Souljah moment“:
		This isn’t to say I’d ever recommend Souljah for a speaking engagement, because some of the other lecture topics on her website look a little scary to me, but it does suggest to me that perhaps she’s changed some from her earlier years of blaming the white man for everything.
		If Souljah is on the right path in terms of promoting the power of the individual by teaching that the individual himself is in charge of his own destiny and not the government - then I wish her much success.

		President Bill Clinton is the inventor of what has come to be known as “A Sister Souljah Moment.” Sister Souljah was a rapper who was at the forefront of pushing the lyrical envelope in hip-hop.
		That was the birth of the Sister Souljah Moment, now applied by pundits anytime an American politician speaks what he thinks is the uncomfortable and unflattering truth to a constituency that is normally supportive of him/her.
		The Sister Souljah Moment is different from a gaffe, which was explained years ago by American journalist Michael Kinsley as one applying to moments when an American politician accidentally speaks an obvious truth but pays for it.

		DEAN'S LOOMING SISTER SOULJAH MOMENT: Robert Kagan's column in yesterday's Washington Post is so important we're going to forgive him his tired, this-sounds-like-something-a-Republican-would-say-but-wait-a-Democrat-actually-said-it lead.
		One can imagine Dean, for example, laying into some fringe antiwar group, whose views, he might explain, were toxic to the debate over foreign policy and ultimately unhelpful to the cause of stabilizing Iraq (now that we're there) and winning the larger war on terror.
		As we've suggested in the past--a suggestion Mickey Kaus graciously references in his own post on the Kagan column--Dean has more room to moderate himself than any other leading Democratic candidate, since his appeal to liberals is more a function of style and tone (i.e., seething anger at Bush) than of any particular policy position.
