There was a particularly disturbing segment during Howard Kurtz’ Reliable Sources program on CNN this weekend. Host Howard Kurtz was interviewing David Remnick, Editor-in-Chief of the New Yorker, who was “pimping” his new book “The Bridge: The Life and Rise of Barack Obama.”

Kurtz asked Remnick a question about the love affair between the mainstream press and Obama during the campaign to which he answered the media was in love with the narrative of having an African-American win the presidency and that was a legitimate approach for a journalist to have.

0bama’s “historic” election was only historic to racists. He’s the least qualified president ever. It’s pretty easy to spot racists, they HAD obama stickers on their cars, nearly all f which are now gone, even though the Dean or Kerry/Edwards stickers are still there.

Democrats are nearly all racist trash. I say that as an African American guy, too.
