    First of all, you don't know what you are talking about. Farrakhan was never Obama's minister.

    Secondly the fact that people worry about Black politicians being radicals and associated with race baiting radicals so they have to denounce them, and they have to do it in strong enough words, or something might be up, but white politicians are never asked to denounce the likes of Glenn Beck, or Ann Coulter, or Rush Limbaugh, is because the white audience is familiar enough with them, that it isn't scary.

    I wasn't really paying attention, I assumed you wrote Reverend Wright.

    But believe whatever you want about the race aspect of this, blaming stuff like this on race is laughable imo.

    I don't know, but would Rush hate Hillary Clinton? Considering he already does, I would say yes. Rush is probably racist, but putting an (R) or a (D) at the end of their name changes his outward opinion of someone.

    Freudian slip?

    If it's not race, then what is the reason black leaders and political candidates(not just Obama) are routinely asked to denounce Farrakhan, but white politicians are never asked to denounce Coulter or Limbaugh or Beck?

    I have seen a double standard and the one difference I see is who's asked to denounce who, and who isn't asked to denounce who.

    Are you sure they didn't ask him who he would like to throw a shoe at?

    Speaking of racism, that reminds me of a song by Das Racist...

    Maybe not a racist but definitely an idiot. Then again he throws balls through a hole and jumps in the air for a living and has no education therefore i'm sure he has great insight into the American Political and Financial System.

    Awesomely bad is what that is. And obnoxiously catchy. And something to sing/quote whenever you go by the institution that the song is primarily focused on.

    It is because the majority of the white viewing audience is familiar enough w/ Rush to not be threatened by him.

    "The militant black man" however has always scared America s***less.
