Of all the names and parodies the traitorous Rats did about President Bush, the RINOs need to just STFU.

If this the first time this idiot has heard this song, then he hasn’t been listening to Rush. Furthermore, if he wasn’t listening to Rush, no wonder we lost so many seats. Rush gave good advice that should have been followed

Thanks for the link.

From the (liberal-left) LA Times...

Obama the 'Magic Negro'
The Illinois senator lends himself to white America's idealized, less-than-real black man

I don't get it. Is he offended that Obama is Negro, or that he is magic? He doesn't really say and I think he should elaborate.

This is getting pretty old. A lot of white people are more offended nowadays about racial matters than the blacks who are the common target. It seems more often than not, the ones screaming racism are ironically the most racist of all and they don't even realize their own hypocrisy.

Note that
  1. They don't mention that until paragraph 8
  2. They don't point out that the term itself was from the LA Times, but imply that the song refers to an article about Obama.
Anyone interested in media bias has so many examples these days. Look how this opinion piece is presented in a format that makes it look like a news story.
