RUSH: Barack Obama, it\u2019s getting bad out there. He\u2019s saying some things here, folks, that are really stupid — well, let me retract, impolitic — and that were he anyone else, would have him laughed out of the race by now. Now, to put this recent spat here in some historical context, from yesterday in the UK Guardian, ‘The wife of Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama on Sunday admonished those who question her biracial husband\u2019s credentials as a black man, calling the issue ‘nonsense.\u2019 ‘We\u2019re still playing around with the question: Is he black enough?\u2019 Michelle Obama told a campaign event on Chicago\u2019s South Side. ‘Stop that nonsense. We are messing with the heads of our children.\u2019 She said that raising the specter of whether her husband was sufficiently black sent a confusing message to kids. She also told several hundred people that she hoped her husband serves as a role model in how he helped raise their two young daughters, ‘If you can\u2019t run your own house, you certainly can\u2019t run the White House.” <\/p>\n

Okay, so she\u2019s upset that they keep asking, ‘Is he black enough?\u2019 Well, here we go, the Washington Post today, and we got a headline: ‘The ‘Black Enough\u2019 Question: Who\u2019s Asking? — In case it wasn\u2019t clear enough the first time, Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) and his wife Michelle have each said repeatedly — and increasingly forcefully — in recent days that they\u2019re fed up with the ‘black enough\u2019 debate.\u2019 Well, I\u2019ve been fed up with it since the first time I read about it in the Los Angeles Times! I think it\u2019s demeaning, it\u2019s insulting, and it is indicative of who the real racists in this country tend to be, and they are liberals. The people who see a human being and note skin color, sexual orientation or other factors first more often than not are going to be liberals and form judgments based on it. If you dig deeper in this Washington Post story, ‘Campaign aides didn\u2019t cite a specific example of the criticism they hoped to put to rest, noting instead that reporters have questioned both Obamas on the issue.\u2019<\/p>\n

They\u2019ve done more than question Obama. They\u2019ve written pieces. They have written stories. Why, the LA Times, a black columnist actually wrote a column entitled, ‘Barack the Magic Negro<\/a>.\u2019 His point was he hasn\u2019t been around long enough, nobody could possibly know what he stands for, so a bunch of guilty white liberals are going to vote for him because he\u2019s the magic negro. Why, they can make themselves feel really good about themselves. The Chicago papers, Indiana papers, a number of papers have kept this question alive, ‘Is Barack Obama black enough? Is he down for the struggle?\u2019 He got into a little dispute early on back in March with the Reverend Sharpton. The Reverend Sharpton wouldn\u2019t sign onto his campaign real fast. The Reverend Jackson did, but the Reverend Sharpton was not yet convinced. He was getting a little jealous. In fact, Joe Biden, another Democrat, went out and said about Obama, (paraphrasing) ‘You know what\u2019s really great? We finally have a clean and articulate black guy in our presidential field, it\u2019s really good.\u2019 Now, he\u2019s trying to be complimentary, of course, but if you think we finally have a clean and articulate black guy, what must you think of other blacks that have been in the race, like the Reverend Jackson and the Reverend Sharpton? So Sharpton, he\u2019s sitting there, ‘Hey, wait a minute. I take a shower every day; I\u2019m clean; I\u2019m articulate; I can speak; I\u2019ve been doing it for a long time. I can even be understood through the bullhorn at the public protests.\u2019 So it inspired a tune here. Everything in this stems from what we found said or written by liberals. Paul Shanklin as Reverend Sharpton. <\/p>\n

(Playing of ‘Barack, the ‘Magic Negro” song.) <\/p>\n

It\u2019s just typical. The Reverend Sharpton could not stick to the lyric line and ended up protesting outside the song. He went off script. Everything in that song was spawned by liberals, and they\u2019re not through. Now in Newsweek, how does Obama woo downscale Democrats? ‘He charms elites. But how does Obama woo a must-have: ‘downscale Dems\u2019?\u2019 Now, what\u2019s a downscale Democrat? If they were talking about Republicans, they\u2019d just say rural hayseeds or rural pro-life Christians or some such thing. Downscale Democrats, we\u2019re talking about poor, downscale poor and stupid Democrats. That\u2019s what we\u2019re talking about. Newsweek\u2019s asking, ‘How does Obama woo them?\u2019 <\/p>\n

‘On a sunlit Friday afternoon in July, Barack Obama stopped by Beverly Van Fossen\u2019s farm in Adel, Iowa, to speak about ‘rural issues.\u2019 It was standard Hawkeye State stumping — until the senator took a stab at sympathizing with farmers whose crop prices have stagnated. ‘Anybody gone into Whole Foods lately and see what they charge for arugula?\u2019 he asked.\u2019 Now, in Iowa, where he was, there\u2019s not one Whole Foods store. Number two, how many people in Adel care about arugula? I don\u2019t think that it\u2019s arugula country. Andrew Romano, the author of the piece here, said, ”Someone near me whispered, ‘What\u2019s arugula?\u2019 says Van Fossen, 74. ‘You can\u2019t find that in Iowa.\u2019 Same goes for Whole Foods. The closest locations, reported The New York Times that evening, are in Omaha, Neb.; Kansas City, Kans., and Minneapolis.\u2019 And, of course, the bloggers all pounced out there. So he\u2019s gotta go out and develop a solid base among downscale Democrats. ‘If you don\u2019t get the downscale Democrats, it\u2019s very hard to get the nomination,\u2019 he said. So now in addition to not being black enough, he\u2019s not poor enough. He doesn\u2019t know how to relate to the poor. <\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s this: ‘Presidential hopeful Barack Obama was warned by a friendly voter Monday to avoid public spats with his Democratic rivals but remarks he made later could add fuel to the criticism against him. Maggie North of Claremont told Obama he risks becoming part of the usual political scene if he keeps being drawn into well-publicized disputes with rivals.\u2019 Now, how ridiculous is this? He\u2019s in a presidential primary campaign. He\u2019s got to argue with these people. You gotta campaign. I guarantee you that independents, moderates, and so forth, if you ask \u2019em what they\u2019re all about, what they care for, everything\u2019s about them, me, me, me. ‘I want to feel good. I don\u2019t want to be around rancor. I just want to feel good. Can\u2019t you all just get along?\u2019 I suspect that this is what Maggie North of Claremont was attempting to convey to Barack Obama. ”You can be it,\u2019 North said at a small gathering at a Hanover restaurant Monday morning that drew eight people.\u2019<\/p>\n

Let me read that to you again. This complaint from a supporter came at a Hanover, New Hampshire, restaurant Monday morning that drew eight people. You can be the nominee, ”But you\u2019ve got to stop, excuse me for being blunt, you\u2019ve got to stop getting involved in the way people are fighting each other, chewing you up a little more.\u2019 ‘That\u2019s what you do when you run for president,\u2019 Obama responded, getting a laugh. But during a later appearance before about 800 people in Nashua, Obama made a comment likely to further the spats he was warned about. Asked whether he would move U.S. troops out of Iraq to better fight terrorism elsewhere, he brought up Afghanistan and said, ‘We\u2019ve got to get the job done there and that requires us to have enough troops so that we\u2019re not just air-raiding villages and killing civilians, which is causing enormous pressure over there.” Okay, so out of the blue comes this allegation that the US military is bombing villages and killing civilians. <\/p>\n

Now, I know why he\u2019s saying it because if you go read your average kook left-wing blog, that\u2019s what they think. He\u2019s just trying to appeal to them here, but that was very impolitic, folks. Seasoned, intelligent presidential candidates, even in primary circumstances, especially in the general, but even primaries, you haven\u2019t heard somebody say — I mean, the closest we\u2019ve got is Tom Tancredo said he would bomb Mecca, and that\u2019s about the same thing, you just don\u2019t say it. Obama\u2019s also saying he\u2019d go in there to Pakistan, whether Musharraf knew we were coming or not and so forth, he\u2019s not racking up points. I have to tell you, he\u2019s getting away with it a lot more than say if Hillary had said this or if John Edwards had said it. The static that would have descended upon them would have been pretty loud. He\u2019s getting a little bit of a pass on some of this stuff, not a total pass, but he\u2019s getting a little bit of a pass on it. But this is not good. I\u2019m talking about in terms of just being smart, something to say in the middle of a campaign, you just don\u2019t say something like that. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Chicago, and Jim, thank you, sir, for your patience and welcome to the program.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Good afternoon, Rush. It\u2019s a pleasure to speak with you again.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: You know, what you\u2019ve said about the liberal media and is Obama black enough, well, it\u2019s really the liberal white media for the most part, because the liberal whites in the Democratic Party have always been able to tell the blacks who their leaders were, like the Reverend Jesse Jackson. This goes back to Clarence Thomas for uppity black people, so Obama is not black enough, so who do you vote for? You vote for Hillary. He\u2019s not poor enough, so who do you vote for? Hillary. They want to keep their power, the white liberal power, so they throw back down any black candidate or any black person that wants power in the Democratic Party.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, you make a good point, and I\u2019d say that the percentage of what you\u2019re saying is accurate, that those in the Drive-Bys are doing everything they can to boost Hillary. Although the last couple days, she\u2019s taken a couple hits. But I also think that there is a systematic narrative in all these Barack stories, as written by white liberals. And the question, is he black enough, is something they really are curious about, some of them are really wondering about. And you touched on it. <\/p>\n

CALLER: When have they ever supported a black candidate? You\u2019ve touched on it many times in your program.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, I gotta tell you something —<\/p>\n

CALLER: A black candidate, they left them lurching out in the wind.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019m going to answer the question. Barack Obama is where he is precisely because of pop star treatment that he got early on from the Drive-By Media, building this guy up, crafting an image for him. He couldn\u2019t have done it himself, not been around long enough. He\u2019s been in the Senate less than two years. He hasn\u2019t done enough to have this image of himself. He gave one speech at the \u201904 Democrat convention, the Drive-Bys built him up. I know what you\u2019re saying, when have they ever wanted a black person to actually win? They\u2019re promoting the guy, but he\u2019s gotta be a certain kind of black. He has to have roots to slavery, civil rights movement and all that because that\u2019s a fundamental element of the liberal Democrat coalition.<\/p>\n

CALLER: No, he has to give the power to the white liberals, and that\u2019s why Jesse Jackson is the liberal white black leader, because whenever there\u2019s an issue about minorities or black issues, white liberals, media, turn to who? The Reverend Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton. <\/p>\n

RUSH: Yes.<\/p>\n

CALLER: When Al Sharpton wanted to be president, they put up Carol Moseley Braun against him because they were worried about South Carolina and Washington, DC. After that she bowed out, and he went back and made a speech, and they gave him some money and he went away. Follow the history of the white liberals.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Federal matching funds, that\u2019s right. Mama told him not to run.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I initially called about the 25 cent bottle tax. Being here from Chicago, the highest volume gas station in the country is right here on the Indiana border with Illinois. The thriving business is the sale of cigarettes, and that\u2019s not on the Illinois side, it\u2019s on the Indiana side. So these idiotic politicians from Illinois have destroyed the gasoline industry on the Illinois border, the cigarette business on the Illinois border, and I got one even better for you. When aldermen went to a Cubs game and saw all those fans up on rooftops, guess what, Rush? Sure enough there\u2019s now a tax on people that watch the games from the rooftops in Chicago.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Is it a city tax or is it a Chicago Cubs ticket —<\/p>\n

CALLER: No, it\u2019s a Chicago city tax. Alderman saw all those people up there and said, ‘Wow, they\u2019re not being taxed,\u2019 and this is the honest-to-God truth, Rush.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Look, you don\u2019t have to tell me. A liberal will see anything walking and moving and if he discovers that it\u2019s doing pretty well, he will tax it. It\u2019s just the way it is. Thanks for the call, Jim. I want to go back to his point here about the Democrat Party and the white liberals. I\u2019ve often described white liberalism and the Democrat Party as the plantation. Because he\u2019s right, the way this works, the reason why Clarence Thomas was such a threat during his confirmation hearings, Clarence Thomas is a conservative, would thus become the most powerful black man in America as an associate justice of the US Supreme Court. He\u2019s not an activist in such a sense, but he threatened the prescriptions necessary to get anywhere, if you\u2019re black in this country, because he didn\u2019t go affirmative action. He didn\u2019t adopt the procedures that liberals demand and the people like the Reverend Jackson demand. <\/p>\n

That made him a huge threat because the civil rights coalitions in this country exist precisely because the Democrat Party grants them positions at the power table. So the Reverend Jackson is a prominent and well-paid Democrat, his job is to make sure that he keeps the thinking in the black community the way it\u2019s been for the last 50 years, to make sure that vote turnout remains 90% or more Democrat, and then he gets repaid. Obama, when it comes to the Drive-Bys, they\u2019ve built him up and so forth, and they\u2019ll take him out in time as will Clinton, Inc., but there is a genuine concern here that he may not be black enough. He doesn\u2019t have the roots that the Democrat Party requires of black leaders. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
