Huh? What does this have to do with anything. The entire event was spent attacking Obama in various ways, this is mild compared to most of it. What difference? Pretty much no one even cares about this.

Perhaps he went too far and mocked the wrong people.

" ...Reggie Brown, a comedian and Obama look-alike, had attendees rolling in the aisles with his racially-tinged one-liners aimed at Obama, including one referring to Obama's parentage:

My favourite month is February, Black history month. You see, Michelle celebrates the full month, and I celebrate half.

But the laughs turned to boos when Brown began targetting Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and Tim Pawlenty among the Republican presidential contenders, with the conference organiser turning off the microphone and having Brown escorted from the stage...

... Scattered boos started when Brown/Obama began making fun of the various Republican presidential contenders, and was just starting on a joke about Michele Bachmann when the sound was cut and a moderator appeared to usher Brown off the stage."

Sure it's a phrase...

Barack the Magic Negro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



Republicans liked the obscure article written a year before the election so much that they even wrote a song about it...

In turn they liked that song so much that they started sending themselves copy of the song.. for Christmas



Who is being dishonest here? The liberal who asserted that for Republicans think humor is calling Barack Obama the magic Negro or the Republicans who keep saying they thought the phrase was so funny that they needed to make a song about it?

i heard a radio interview with Reggie Brown yesterday.........he said he was pulled of stage because he went over his time limit, they signaled him once and he kept going so they ultimatly turned up the music and went on stage and got him. He said there were a couple others before him that treated the same for time over-run

OMG! You are being more than dishonest. David Ehrenstein writes an op ed for the LATimes, Limbaugh sees the political value of using a black liberal op ed writer, for a liberal papers own words to describe Obama in the campaign, and liberals instantly tried to label Limbaugh as racist for using the term....

Now you come out and say because Limbaugh's show made a joke of it, and satirized it in a song that conservatives are racists?

Quit being a transparent hack please.

I'd like to see the rest. One would have to be really uptight to take offense at what is in the video you posted.

Just did some research. Seems the reason the took him off the stage is because he was turning the jokes on the Republicans.
