That being said based on the context of the preceding posts Duncan was answering a post from another member I was asking for more inromation before making my own opinion.
After further reaserch I see the video in question “Barack the Magic Negro” by conservative satirist Paul Shanklin who created it was popularized to some extent by Rush and Saltsman later distributed it to his friends as a Christmass Greeting of all things and the GOP itself as a whole actually had no part in it and shouldnt be villified as such.
Now as for Shanklin, Rush and Saltsman... I only can say shame on all three of them for propogating such racist bull%$#@. They are no better than the people at the Post. But hey they are part of the same media beast that promotes discontent and divsion as a means of lining thier own pockets to the expense of actually following any sense of journalist virtue ironic only if such a thing ever actually existed in any way other than name only.
