RUSH: Here\u2019s Senator Obama. This was Friday. Jacksonville, Florida, at a campaign event.<\/p>\n

OBAMA: We know what kind of campaign they\u2019re going to run. They\u2019re going to try to make you afraid. They\u2019re going to try to make you afraid of me. (laughter) They\u2019re gonna…. They\u2019re going to say, ‘You know what, he\u2019s — he\u2019s — he\u2019s young, inexperienced, and, uh, uh, he\u2019s got a funny name. Did I mention he\u2019s black? (cheers and applause) (Obama laughs) He\u2019s got a feisty wife.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Were you able to understand that? You weren\u2019t? Come on, Snerdley, we added some sound effects to make it sound like the messiah was speaking, but we thought you could still hear what he was saying. You didn\u2019t understand what he said? Well, okay, then I\u2019ll translate it. He said, ‘We know what kind of campaign they\u2019re going to run. They\u2019re going to try to make you afraid. They\u2019re going to try to make you afraid of me. They\u2019re going to try and say, ‘You know what? He\u2019s young and inexperienced. He\u2019s gotta funny name. Did I mention he\u2019s black? He\u2019s got a feisty wife.” This guy, ladies and gentlemen, is diabolical. Barack Obama will do and say anything. This is a disgrace, and people should be furious with this kind of thing. It is the Democrat Party that brought up race.<\/p>\n

All of the racism, all of the sexism, all of these things that supposedly the Republicans are guilty of and that the country is guilty of, were on full display during the Democrat primaries. Barack Obama is out there virtually ignoring the fact that it was the Clintons and any number of other Democrats who were pointing out he\u2019s not black enough. It was Democrats and liberals who started the whole refrain, ‘Is he authentic?\u2019 meaning has he been down for the civil rights struggle. They are the ones! The Reverend Jackson reference by the Clintons, North Carolina. (doing Clinton impression) ‘Hey, of course they know he\u2019s gonna win here. Jesse Jackson won here. He\u2019s black!\u2019 You know Clinton was right. They played the race card on him — and, of course, the sexism and so forth. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, while all this has been going on, John McCain has been doing everything he can to distance himself from anything that mentioned Obama\u2019s middle name; Obama\u2019s race or what have you. He\u2019s made it plain he doesn\u2019t want to go there, and yet here is the disgraceful Barack Obama coming out, doing and saying anything, making it up. In fact, what you might even be able to conclude from this is that it is Obama who is playing the race card himself, and he\u2019s trying to evoke sympathy. I don\u2019t know anybody who\u2019s talking about race when it comes to Obama on our side. Do you? Everybody on our side is scared to death to say anything about Obama! I don\u2019t know who\u2019s bringing this up. I don\u2019t know anybody who\u2019s talking about him being a Muslim. Who\u2019s doing that? But he\u2019s out there saying, ‘They\u2019re going to call me…\u2019 Who on our side is doing that? Do you know anybody? I don\u2019t know anybody saying that, anybody that matters.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: So Obama is out there accusing the Republicans of playing the race card. He did this in Florida on Friday. ‘They\u2019re going to try to make you afraid of me. They\u2019re going to try and say, ‘You know what? He\u2019s young and inexperienced. He\u2019s gotta funny name. Did I mention he\u2019s black? He\u2019s got a feisty wife.” By the way, the Atlanta Urinal-Constipation Saturday — speaking of ‘feisty wife\u2019 — it\u2019s a blog. ‘Michelle Obama has been the recipient of rougher treatment than her husband for a reason, the president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference said Saturday. One [of the Obamas] has ancestors who were slaves and the other doesn\u2019t,\u2019 and that\u2019s the reason, ‘said Charles Steele Jr., president and CEO of the decades-old, Atlanta-based civil rights group.\u2019 <\/p>\n

‘Barack Obama is ‘of the system. He\u2019s going to be in the system,\u2019 Steele told a morning gathering of the Georgia Association of Black Elected Officials. ‘Why are they attacking Michelle Obama, first lady Michelle Obama, and not really attacking, to that degree, her husband?\u2019 Steele asked. ‘Because he has no slave blood in him. He does not have any slave blood in him, but Michelle does. ‘This system is an issue. I don\u2019t care what you say. You can\u2019t expect the system that enslaved you save you,\u2019 Steele said.\u2019 This is just weird! This is just weird. ‘Steele admitted to the crowd that his remarks about the Obamas were intended to be provocative, but afterwards declined to expand upon them. The SCLC said his larger point was that — even should Obama win the presidency in November — the problems faced by African-Americans will still require an outside voice.\u2019 <\/p>\n

I told you.! See? This is the bottom line. Everybody says, ‘Rush, you gotta understand here. If Obama wins, we have crossed the threshold. We have reached the Promised Land. We have reached the mountaintop! There will no longer be any valid charges of racism.\u2019 No way, folks. It\u2019s going to get worse. Obama is playing the race card now saying any criticism of him is racist. Any mention of his name, any mention of his race, any mention of Michelle, it\u2019s all racist. Now we got the Southern Christian Leadership Conference honcho saying, ‘Hey, nothing is changing. If Obama wins, nothing is changing here. We still need an outside voice,\u2019 because he\u2019s not black enough. He\u2019s not authentic. <\/p>\n

The Southern Christian Leadership Conference\u2019s Charles Steele, Jr., has just said — if you know how to translate this stuff like I do, because I know liberals — he\u2019s not black enough. He is ‘from the system.\u2019 He is the ‘Magic Negro.\u2019 He is the guy. He is the one that they\u2019ve all been waiting for, guilty white liberals, can say, ‘Finally I can vote for a black guy, get over the guilt I feel for slavery that I had nothing to do with!\u2019 But not so with the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. These people don\u2019t miss a trick, do they? (laughing) They don\u2019t miss a beat! ‘Hey, you white people? You think Obama being elected is going to change things? You got another thing coming. (laughter) We\u2019re still gonna need an outside voice. You\u2019re still gonna hear from us.\u2019 (laughter) Barack doesn\u2019t have any slave history, but Michelle does, and that\u2019s why people are supposedly ripping Michelle.<\/p>\n

Mr. Steele, I don\u2019t think you understand, to the extent that people are ripping Michelle Obama, it is only after she inserted herself into all this and started claiming that she was never proud of her country until the last year or so, and then when she\u2019s out making speeches to poor people, she\u2019s essentially telling them to stay that way and don\u2019t have any higher aspirations. You have to understand something, Mr. Steele. When anybody… I don\u2019t care who it is. I don\u2019t care what their ethnicity, what their race, what their sexual or gender orientation happens to be. When somebody enters the presidential race and starts getting involved in it from the standpoint of ideas, people are going to react to it, and if you think that you guys can get away with shutting that down simply because — well, you might be with some of the Republican Party, but other people are not going to be intimidated by this. What? Not able to criticize anybody because of their name, not able to criticize anybody because of their skin color, and yet we are playing the race card? <\/p>\n

But all that aside, this last sentence in this story is the piece de resistance: ‘The SCLC said his larger point was that — even should Obama win the presidency in November — the problems faced by African-Americans will still require an outside voice,\u2019 cause Obama is not authentic. Obama is not really black. Obama does not have a slave past. He has no slavery in his bloodline. Well, you might say he\u2019s got some Al Sharpton in him. Sharpton in the protest line, while Obama was in prep school. And naturally some of these guys feel sort of shoved out of the way by Obama. And so they\u2019re making it plain. ‘Hey, hey, we kind of dig Michelle. She got slave past. She got slavery in her blood, but not this guy. They\u2019re still going to need us to explain how things are not right racially in this country.\u2019 Oh, we\u2019re going to play you an audio sound bite of the Drive-Bys reacting to Obama throwing the race card. We have a montage here. This is from Friday through Sunday morning. Who do we have? We have Jack Cafferty, the old… He\u2019s out of his mind. He\u2019s the curmudgeon at CNN. We\u2019ve got Gloria Borger. We got Ed Henry — all these people at CNN. We got Ann Curry of NBC. We got Howard Fineman from Newsweek. We got Scarborough. We got Mika Brzezinski. We\u2019ve got Jon Meacham — and Obama They\u2019re all responding to Obama, so Obama\u2019s responding to himself here.<\/p>\n

CAFFERTY: Very shrewd. Very shrewd to put this out there now before they do, because they will. It\u2019s pretty funny.<\/p>\n

BORGER: Why not bring it up with a little bit of a sense of humor at this point?<\/p>\n

HENRY: President Bush does that with humor.<\/p>\n

CURRY: Obama addressed race at a fund-raiser in Florida using a little humor.<\/p>\n

FINEMAN: Anything you can laugh at or with, you\u2019re not afraid of. He\u2019s really played it quite brilliantly.<\/p>\n

SCARBOROUGH: That\u2019s great stuff.<\/p>\n

BRZEZINSKI: Wow. <\/p>\n

MEACHAM: That\u2019s one helluva of a good politician.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Throwing the race card down and supposedly doing it with humor. In other words, telling lies about people is just fine with the Drive-Bys. They think it is a fabulous strategy and hilariously funny that Obama has called Republicans racists. Here\u2019s Ben in Atlanta. Ben, I\u2019m glad you waited. Welcome to the EIB Network.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, Rush. I think what this is all about is that the Republicans have not gotten involved in race, not talked about it. The only people talking about it are Obama\u2019s camp and the Clintons. So they played a preemptive race card \u2019cause they got to drag the Republicans into this to get \u2019em where they want, which is away from the questionable radical associations of Pfleger and Wright and Ayers and get \u2019em on to the stuff that sells. Because I think they\u2019re finding that reasonable, middle-class American blacks are turned off by all this radical stuff with Wright and Pfleger and they\u2019ve gotta change the topic and get it on to something that they know is a winner, and the winner is race.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, I don\u2019t disagree with any of that. This is all part of the repackaging of Obama and so forth.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Absolutely.<\/p>\n

RUSH: But once again it does distort the whole thing. All of the racism was… If anybody played the race card on this guy, it was other Democrats.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Absolutely.<\/p>\n

RUSH: It was the Clintons. It was all over the place. I think it\u2019s just deplorable what he\u2019s doing. I don\u2019t find it funny.<\/p>\n

CALLER: When you do it this way and play the preemptive race card, you get to maintain your victim status and still get the first blow in — <\/p>\n

RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n

CALLER: — and say —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n

CALLER: — those rascally Republicans!<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n

CALLER: You know what they\u2019re going to do to me.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Right. Right. Ben, thanks for the call. I just want to do something here, ladies and gentlemen. I just want you let you know it isn\u2019t gonna work on this program. Just like I can hang around with liberal women and not be changed for good, I\u2019m not intimidated by Barack Obama. <\/p>\n

(playing of ‘Barack the ‘Magic Negro”) <\/p>\n

RUSH: That\u2019s the Reverend Al Sharpton singing ‘Barack the ‘Magic Negro,” which is all about the fact that Barack\u2019s not authentic enough. He\u2019s not black enough. And, lo and behold, the same point has been made by this guy Steele at the Southern Christian Leadership Conference in which he says, ‘[S]hould Obama win the presidency in November the problems facing African-Americans will still require an outside voice,\u2019 because Obama doesn\u2019t have slave blood in him, but his wife, Michelle, does. Ain\u2019t got no blood; ain\u2019t got no slave blood. So the guy who first wrote this ‘Magic Negro\u2019 column in the LA Times, David Ehrenstein, has been proven correct. The Southern Christian Leadership Conference has now said Obama\u2019s not authentic, no slave blood. He ain\u2019t got no blood, ain\u2019t got no slave blood. Michelle does. So he requires an outside spokesman. Point made.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I just want to reiterate here, my friends, Obama is out there throwing down the race card, and he\u2019s also throwing down this bit about his middle name and whether or not he\u2019s Muslim and this sort of stuff. I want to remind you, nobody of any importance in the Republican Party is using his race or the fact — nobody\u2019s even saying it. I don\u2019t know who he\u2019s talking about. In fact, he\u2019s not talking about anybody. This is a preemptive strike. What this does is give the Drive-Bys cover to accuse people of it, because the Drive-Bys are in total coordination with Obama, and so he\u2019s now put it out there, ‘They\u2019re going to say I\u2019m black. They\u2019re going to make fun of my name and they\u2019re going to call me a Muslim and say my wife is feisty,\u2019 whatever, and so the Drive-Bys: ‘Wow, this is great. This was funny, why, get rid of the issue.\u2019 This is just carte blanche for the Drive-Bys to level the accusations now, and they\u2019ll report on Republicans in that context. I don\u2019t know anybody of any importance who\u2019s even talking about these things when it comes to Obama. <\/p>\n

The only people I know of that brought up the fact he\u2019s black and tried to make a big deal out of it are Democrats in their primary campaign, and there are even some Democrats who brought up this Muslim business. You know, he went to madrasahs, whatever they are, all these things. The Clinton campaign, a number of others, did their best to subtly and sometimes not to subtly bring this up. But hell, folks, Republicans don\u2019t have the guts to go anywhere near any of this stuff. They don\u2019t even have the guts to be all that critical because they\u2019re afraid this is what\u2019s going to happen to them, which has always been one of the Republicans\u2019 biggest problems anyway. They\u2019re going to get ripped to shreds, so why not do the right thing anyway? No matter what they do, the Drive-Bys, the Democrats are gonna impugn them, attack them. So why not say the right stuff? Just do the right thing. It doesn\u2019t seem to permeate. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
