BARACK OBAMA IS THE ILLEST.

Rush Limbaugh, trying his best to blame Obama for the hacking of Palin's e-mail account, does his best to avoid "stoking racism":

And then of course, Obama, folks, is showing who he really is. A community organizer, the street agitator, the Chicago thug, clear the playing field, is finally being -- it's on display for everybody to see.

You don't get much realer than Barack Obama, it's true. I hear he bleeds courvoisier. He chews spent slugs like bubblegum. He can roll a blunt with his toes.

Remember when conservatives were saying that whole "community organizer" thing had nothing to do with race?

UPDATE: It seems Tupac Obama is simultaneously  George Wallace, according to Limbaugh's WSJ Op-Ed today:

We've made much racial progress in this country. Any candidate who employs the tactics of the old segregationists is unworthy of the presidency.

Yeah, the mixed guy is the segregationist. You can't make this stuff up.

COMMENTS

Well, to be called a 'thug' by Limbaugh is almost a complement.

I just heard Rush this afternoon explaining why Obama "isn't even black" because he has "not one drop of African-American blood". Yes, according to rush, the black American with an African father is neither black nor African-American.

His birthstone's a diamond/ his favorite color's green/ he smokes lean and pisses Louis XIII...
