The leading US shock jock Rush Limbaugh is taunting the liberal media by repeatedly airing a derogatory and racially charged song about the Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.

Limbaugh, whose rightwing talk show is one of the most listened to in the US, has been running a song called Barack the Magic Negro, to the tune Puff the Magic Dragon.

The song has always been in very poor taste. I haven’t listened to Rush since he debuted it.

” Karl Frisch, a spokesman for Media Matters, a US monitoring group, said today he did not see a difference between Limbaugh and Imus, and accused Limbaugh of inflaming his audience.”

Inflaming ?
According to the left , anyone who listens to Rush must be a drooling, toothless, knuckle dragger who wears white sheets and burns crosses.
When is the last time a Rush audience or any conservative audience rioted like the leftists and Muslims in France or the anarchists in Seattle and the anti wars here?
The correct answer is..never.

It's one of the best parodies I've ever heard. Outstanding.

It most likely gave his ratings a huge boost.

I agree. The song is actually brilliant. I don’t know who is singing, but he has the “reverend” Al down perfectly. It’s so funny watching the libs throw tantrums over the “racism” when it’s their OWN FREAKIN’ WORDS used in the song.

Ewen MacAskill's mamma is so fat...or should that be EWEN MACASKILL'S....?

Any way, it's from The Guardian, home of the original moon bat, George Monbiot.
