The odious Martin Bashir is at it again. On his MSNBC show today, Bashir suggested that conservatives, racists that they are, were happy to have slaves help build the White House, but can't accept a black president living there.

Who’s your least-favorite MSNBC personality? Mine is the lesser-known Martin Bashir, for frequently pulling stuff like this. Ping to Today show list.

When will these idiots ever get it? It has nothing to do with his color and everything to do with his character. Exactly what Dr. King fought for.

Actually, there are several blacks that I would love to see living in the White House. What these idiots don’t get is that we would vote for a black conservative in a heartbeat!

I must be missing something, but isn’t Obama a mulatto?

Isn’t it past time for this flying A-hole to wing his way back across the Atlantic?

Lord knows we’ve got more than enough home-grown nitwits here, and certainly don’t need to import any!

Yep, we’d be just fine and dandy with a WHITE communist in the White House. It’s because he’s a black communist that we have a problem with him!

In 2003, Bashir conducted a series of interviews with pop singer Michael Jackson, as part of a documentary for ITV. Following the broadcast, which was viewed by 14 million in the UK and 38 million in the US, several media personalities accused Bashir of yellow journalism, claiming that he deliberately doctored the recordings in order to paint Jackson in an unflattering light, as well as emphasising the allegations of child molestation made against Jackson. The New York Times called Bashir’s journalism style “callous self-interest masked as sympathy.”

In response, Jackson and his personal cameraman released a rebuttal interview, which showed Bashir complimenting Jackson for the “spiritual” quality of the Neverland Ranch, thus contradicting the journalist’s previous statements that it was a “dangerous place” for children. Bashir also describes Jackson as a wonderful father and says that Jackson’s relationship with his children “almost makes him weep”.

Obama’s ethnicity is not the problem. It’s his politics.

Slavery still exists and is thriving in Africa due to Islam. Black Muslims are the modern day slavers, and BHO2 knows it.

Just...damn! We can't they understand English?

It doesn't matter what color he is. We don't want a Muslim/Marxist/Socialist who hates America in the White House. Sheesh. It's pretty simple.

Didn’t folks say back in 2008 that any criticism of Obama would be called racist? They were right.

They get it perfectly well.

It's Alinsky's Rule #5: Ridicule is man's most potent weapon.

The ridicule doesn't have to be true. All that matters is that every utterance out of your mouth denigrates you opponent in some way.

These aren't rocket scientists. They're mindless demagogues.

Hey Martin -- it was only the DEMOCRATS who were cool with slavery, Jim Crow and the KKK.

As my tagline says: Liberals' only problem with American slavery is that the slaves were privately owned.

Pity but then he isn’t very smart.. and his lips are too big..

Was the WH in fact, built with slave labor? That thought had not occurred to me before. I’m not sure what difference it makes anyway.

I’m pretty sure slaves were not used when it was gutted and rebuilt during Truman’s term.

These guys continue to make my point. They can’t help themselves.

The DNC is the party of the race obsessed. Race is the lens through which they see the world. Race politics, ethnic politics, is their tool of choice because its the one that comes most naturally to them. As they say, to a hammer everything is a nail; and to the race obsessed everything is race.

They can’t conceive of a world in which race doesn’t matter, and if you try to explain it to them, they see your lips moving but they can’t hear a word you’re saying.
