RNC Candidate’s Racial Flub

Here’s one candidate you can probably scratch from the running for Republican National Committee chairman: Chip Saltsman, the former national campaign manager for Mike Huckabee. Saltsman has raised some eyebrows for distributing a 41-track holiday CD to national committee members that included the not-so-classic “Barack the Magic Negro,” which Rush Limbaugh first aired in 2007. Saltsman doesn’t think, however, that he’s done anything wrong. “I think that RNC members have the good humor and good sense to recognize that [satirist and Saltsman friend Paul Shanklin's] songs for the Rush Limbaugh show are light-hearted political parodies.”

"Light-hearted political parodies" indeed...
How about "Rush, the Fat-Ass Neo," or that rib-tickler, "Chip, the outright Bigot."

This display of 'daring rebeliousness' is on the level of those pick-up trucks with a decal of the cartoon boy who is devilishly peeing no matter what people in the car behind them think about it, so there, nyah. They can whip it out and pee any time they want and no matter who is watching - what freedom!

Anyway, white supremacists chafe at the limits that a PC society places upon them - they take great satisfaction in using the N-word on their sites, etc., in demonstration of how they aren't going to let anyone take away their freedom of expression.

This blatantly disrespectful Negro tag is the same thing - they can chuckle about how none of them N-lovers is gonna keep them from sayin it like it is, ya know?

And that's all good - they can continue to sink their NeoCon ship by their low behavior, which simply isn't playing like it used to in the good ol' days of the prior 8 years. Look at the unrepentant 'bad boy peeing anywhere he wants, no matter who is watching': Cheney. He says he doesn't regret saying FU to the Legislator, because he's the Big Kahuna. He oh so boldly admits he leaked the undercover agent's name - isn't he so brave?
