TIME's Mark Halperin implies the Drudge Report is racist for running the headline "Obama Goes Street: Seeking 'Ass To Kick.'"
"You know Matt Drudge ... Matt Drudge knew exactly what he was doing with that headline," Halperin said on FOX News' "O'Reilly Factor."
"He thought it was cool and hip, but he knew full well that it was provocative and racial ... he knows how to tap into the sentiment of his readers," Halperin added.
O'Reilly wasn't buying that criticism of President Obama is based on his skin color.

O building street cred ya know..
Beating up on Christians is still ok. But heavens above, don’t dare call islam a radical cult....that is verboten.
We have better things to worry about than Drudge’s headline on Obama. Will these people never stop beating the race drum? Is there anything that they consider innocuous? Could they even lighten up once in awhile?
but an idiot on TV saying he wants a real black president to wave a gun is fine.
Mark Halperin is the son of Morton Halperin.
Morton Halperin is Senior Vice President of the Center for American Progress and Director of the Open Society Policy Center established by George Soros.
That is all you need to know about him. Like father, like son.
Now who said “ass” again? Unbelievable. Profanity is a street way of talking so I say Drudge was appropriate.
see post—I wasn’t aware of this. How about you, liz?
The libs have spent the last two years excusing Obama’s failures due to his race.
This is why the old media is dying, and the alternative media is surging.
INterestingly, when VP Bush said after his ‘84 debate that he thought they kicked a little ass, that he was being sexist against Ferraro.
“...Could they even lighten up once in awhile?...”
“lighten up” - THAT’S RACIST!!!
Black people do not have a monopoly on a$$ kicking.
liberals think race, the rest of us just think: he’s a socialist
I am so damned SICK of hearing about Bammy's RACE!! I HATE his LEFTYISM, not his RACE!!
In fact, it's all they have had since 1984, when GHW Bush used the same phrase ("We kicked a little ass") regarding his VP debate with Geraldine Zaccaro(Ferraro). At that time, the whorehouse left was shocked! Shocked! to hear a VP candidate make such a "sexist" comment.
So you see, these are not real people and should not be answered literally.
I didn’t think you could be Racist against Honky Presidents.
Mark and Morton.
“lighten up “ oops i just think you said something racial (sarc)
