Big deal. No different than The Beverly Hillbillies, Green Acres and Petticoat Junction. If we're going to be that sensitive, we might as well hang it up.
Yes, for some strange reason that I just can't put my finger on, the threads about the Obama's never include pictures or quotes from The Beverly Hillbillies, Green Acres, or Petticoat Junction. Just shows like Sanford and Son, The Jeffersons, and Good Times. Why not Magnum, PI or Hawaii 50? Hmmmm, what single trait does Obama share in common with just those sitcoms he's compared to?
And if the people on DU or DailyKos started posting pictures from The Beverly Hillbillies, Green Acres, or Hee Haw in a thread about Sarah Palin and her family and how they dress, and the people started calling her kids trailer trash and meth addicts, that wouldn't be a cheap and stereotyped shot at her class and rural background, right? (And, yes, I'm sure you can find examples of them doing exactly that.)
Good Times, Sanford and Son, and the Jeffersons

Well said and I agree. This calling everyone racist while allowing them to say anything they want is BS. Complete BS. We have blacks in the WH. I’m over this racist, minority crap.
