black president

Especially now that they’re all considering jumping back onto the Dim-O-Crack slave ship to pull the lever for the Obamessiah - you know - because he’s brown.

A woman in Pennsylvania speaks her mind:

"I don't think our country is ready for a black president," Susick, who is white, said in an interview in the paint store where she works. "A black man is never going to win Pennsylvania."

Because it’s been the day from Hell, and I must laugh, you should, too…

This is one of my favorite comedy clips of all time…

I present to you Dave Chapelle as the Black President Bush.  I can’t see Barack Obama handling the House like this, but it sure would be hysterical if he did…

Paul Krugman, and many others, are bloviating about Obama's chances with white people like me:

White people crack me up...

"To be honest, it's because I liked Bill Clinton as president. I figure two heads are better than one," she said.

We go from some newfangled not so subtle racism to some old fashioned not so subtle racism. The Southern Poverty Law Center released a report documenting a rise in the number of hate groups since the year 2000.

At least there's one GOP congressman who isn't walking on eggshells around the potential second black president. Says Representative Steve King (R-IA):
