Yeah, I’m on a YouTube kick today (this is what happens when you live without a TV and are trying to avoid doing actual work), but it’s worth noting that the people who want white women to get breedin’ because the brownies are taking over are the same people who are grabbing at straws to make Barack Obama look bad — including seriously arguing that perhaps he’s not fit for the presidency because he smokes. The guy has been startlingly upfront with his flaws, including admitting to cocaine use — is a nicotine addiction really going to sink his campaign?
But my favorite part of the video has to be the Obama-as-Mammy comment. When I heard that, my facial expression probably looked something like Malia Lazu’s. I’m going to give the Fox commentator the benefit of the doubt and assume that he doesn’t know the history of the mammy, and doesn’t realize that it was a stereotype used to justify slavery and then segregation. But regardless… just, wow.
