Shanklin was on Andrew Clark SR. on AM600 WREC defending this yesterday. He gave of course the backstory.

I like your work Mr. Shanklin, but “Barak the Magic Negro” was just a plain stupid idea.

Somebody told me that Obama’s CHANGE mantra actually stands for “Come Help A Negro Get Elected”. Even some of my Democrat voter friends tell me that they have become less than enthusiastic because they now realize that this guy was elected BECAUSE he claims to be “black” and has no other qualifications.

The truth is that Barak was to white for south chicago politics and that is why he had to immerse himself in the rev wrights black liberation theology church in order to show that he was down with the struggle.

South chicago folks eyed him suspiciously as a privelidged kid raised in hawaii by white folk and going to the finest prep schools

shanklins parody is dead nuts on

The song questions whether Obama is "authentically" black and intimates white voters wouldn't have voted for him if he had been from "the hood."

Is the author of this piece truly this ignorant, or just trying for a bit of political provocation of his/her own?

Shanklin sings the song as Al Sharpton, who - along with Jesse Jackson - and other negroes intimated or actually said those things. The parody is hilarious because Sharpton, Jackson, et al, parade around presenting themselves as the arbiters and representatives of everything that is "legitimately black", and because the original article was written by a liberal black guy. THEY are the ones questioning Obama's "authenticity" - not Shanklin, not Limbaugh, and not the guy who distributed the cd. And, THAT is what makes it good satire.

Shanklin shines a humorous light on their hypocrisy.

Those who are "uncomfortable" with the use of the word "negro" or "negroid", need to get a grip and avail themselves of a dictionary. There is nothing in the least offensive in the word, and taking offense at it, by whites or by blacks, makes about as much sense as a white person being offended at being called Caucasian or Caucasoid. That said, I have no doubt that there are those whites who are ignorant enough of the meaning of those words to be offended by being referred to in those terms as well.

This is all a set up to for the launch of the Fairness Doctrine which will knock Rush off the radio by implying that he is a racist. Look for more of this crap as Liberals build their case that Rush and other talk show hosts need to be silenced because of their racism. Remember Imus????

The republican leadership is no longer conservative, a true conservative wouldn’t go near this crap with a 40 foot pole.

This is what liberals do. They recycle stories hoping that this time it will create some form of outrage among the general population. They did it with the Bush national guard story, they try it pretty much anytime Ann Coulter releases a book and now they are trying it again with this Magic Negro parody. When the parody first came out they tried to make an issue of it and it didn’t fly now they are trying it again. Amazing.
