IS 'BARACK THE MAGIC NEGRO' RACIST?
Did anyone posting here bother to _read_ Ehrenstein's article?

Didn't think so. The worst offender is the imbecile who wrote the original post. "Ehrenstein is a white liberal" From the article:
'Speaking as an African American whose last name has led to his racial "credentials" being challenged — often several times a day — I know how pesky this sort of thing can be.'
According to Wikipedia, Ehrenstein is evidently what was known in less PC times as a quadroon - 25% black. He is also gay, so I guess he collects double on Affirmative Action points. There are advantages to the freedom of expression provided by the "blogsphere" particularly when posters take the time to do research and the trouble to cogitate before posting. Obviously, none of that will be found on exhibit here. Oh, btw I find the video sophomorically amusing, but aimless and missing any coherent point. So I would say that it is not itself inherently racist, but I'm sure the intent of Limbaugh and the RNC schmuck was to inflame racial tensions by baiting the sort of low-brow reactionaries that haunt venues like, um, this one and its liberal counterparts. Now all y'all jackasses can stick your heads back where they usually reside...Hairy Harry
