Republican Elected Official Defends Obama “Magic Negro” Song
December 27th, 2008
A candidate for the Republican National Committee’s chair spot says a song he placed on a CD was meant as humor, not racism against President-elect Barack Obama. Tennessee’s Chip Saltsman claims that he borrowed “Barack the Magic Negro” – based on the children’s song “Puff the Magic Dragon” – from a segment of the Rush Limbaugh show. “I think most people recognize political satire when they see it,” Saltsman tells CNN. He sent the CD to fellow Republicans; it included other songs poking fun at Obama’s former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and 2008 presidential candidate Sen. John Edwards. Obama hasn’t commented about news of the CD.

so many ignorant ant bitter white people posting on here lately….just like roaches….
You white folks are afraid of PAY BACK that’s why yall sooo mad you know you treated blacks wrong for centuries and now you dummies are afraid of loosing ALL of your benefits of being white. lol
get an education and grow the f.u.c.k. up cause OUR government don’t work like that stupid!
Red Neck Hunter; Lynn, Fedup, David, Lakers24 ,Shiann, Grady and House Negro Hunter. Stop the racial comments. Theres no need for this. And the fact the lakers 24 wants to talk about he and David’s sexual adventures, is total disrespectful. There are gay sites that you can post on. How are you all are going to answer to God Almighty when you die, for these awful comments. Think before you speak. If you guys and ladys do not like blacks why do you post any comments. It doesn’t matter who own this site now, you all know that this is mostly a black comment site. And for the blacks on this site, you know that ignorants is bliss, stop responding to these guys. Stay with whatever the topic is. I send love and guidance to all. Be safe for the New Year. God Bless.
No one in the land of the living is perfect or better because of their skin color, how much money, reglion, education level, or gender. We are only here in the land of living temporary. If people want to live a life of sin, hatred, depress, stress, or unhappy. Let it be. That’s their business. Why, feed into the negative comments? Obama knew when he was elected that he would face negative results. That’s between him and his higher power to overcome. No weapon formed against him or anyone shall prosper. Sometimes its best to turn the other cheek. Save ur energy on positive comments and let others waste theirs on the negative. Just remember those that was once rich will be poor and those that are poor will one day be rich. This is not our battle!!!
President Obama is going to face many hardships while in office including ignorant racist comments from ignorant uneducated people. Remember, it doesn’t matter what they say our President is black!!! These stupid people on this website & all over the country are just MAD & they don’t know what to do but dish out racial comments. They so angry a black man will be leading this nation its gutwreching to them, I mean these people are so pathetic when they see President Obama on TV they probably have a tantrum. AND ITS TOO FUNNY, they feel this way, but sad at the same time. So just ignore these stupids comments because at the end of the day our President is black & ain’t jack they can do about it but keep CRYING & trying to hurt us with their comments. They ain’t bout to do it in person or to someone’s face so it’s whatever!!
CHIP SHUT UP!!!!!!, BECUASE NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY OBAMA IS HERE TO STAY
Hello this racist thing is stupid you have to pray for people like this you can not change people and it sad regardless I am black man racism still here it will never go away until god come back.Obama sill our president regardless what they said they just jealous because a black man stepping in office go ahead Obama don’t listen to igonarant people.
this is an example of why blacks distrust whites . i have lots of white freinds and not one of them found this funny. as long as we have charaters like this representing this countries we will never be free from our racist past.
Lynn, Fedup and the Republicans, THANK YOU for showing us how stupid and ignorant you all are. It’s really amazing how well you do it. You know my grandmother would say, “Now there are three reasons why some animals eat their young”. People, Lynn and Fedup should be accepted for what they are (IDIOTS), prayed for, and ignored on this board. They have nothing positive to contribute, so ignore them and maybe they will go away. The Republican politician and the others in agreement with him has done nothing but embarassed America. While they are finding ways to make jokes about our new President-Elect, the terrorist and working on ways to get us. Wake up and build not destroy.
Chip Saltsman. I could make lots of jokes about that name. What kind of chip? Munchos – the chip no one eats; the one that’s always left in the bag. Saltsman? He does look a little salt. And what about the way he looks? His face looks like a butt – an ugly butt at that.
this goes out the….. GRADY….. i know that i dont know you but that waz wrong for what you said about black people. not every black person live off of welfare.there is white people that live of of welfare to. so how dare you go and say such a thing, when you know that it dont matter what color your skin may be you still can get welfare.And for your info whites dont pay for black folk welfare the government do.so i think that you need to think before you express whats on your mind.you know what i am not done ok idk what color you are an it realy dont matter but is seems that you are not BLACK.so i will say what if you was black are you saying that you would be on welfare.no matter what you say i bet there is some on in your family that is on welfare and are tring to make ends meet.boy know matter what color someone is they are still to be treated equaly,and they are still GODS child.we may not be the same color on have the same mom or dad but in GODS EYE we are brothers and sisters.before i go i would like to say this there is not a black HEAVEN OR HELL or a white HEAVEN OR HELL there is not even a seperate HEAVEN OR HELL for people on welfare you i think you need to just read the bible and think about things. BYE.
White males are so fearful of Black males that they have to find some type of way to degrade and dehumanize of us. White males are so envious of the fact that they don’t have the Black man’s strength. It’s ridiculous. Come on, did he really make the song out of humor or fear. White males still don’t understand the strength of our Black males and they never will. Wake up white people, we’re here and we’re not going anywhere. Especially BARACK OBAMA!!
WHY DO YOU KEEP SAYIN OBAMA IS HERE TO STAY.OF COURSE HE’S HERE FOR A FEW YEARS,AND WERE COOL WITH THAT OR WE WOULD NOT HAVE PUT HIM IN THE WHITE HOUSE. I KEEP TELLING THE UNEDUCATED ON THIS SITE THAT THERE ARE NOWHERE NEAR ENOUGH BLACKS IN THIS COUNTRY TO ELECT A PRESIDENT. YOU MAKE UP 13.4% OF THE POPULATION AND NOT ALL OF YOU CAN VOTE. CHILDREN,CONVICTS,PEOPLE ON PAROLE.SO DO THE MATH FOOLIOS.AS YOU CAL ALREADY SEE HE’S SRAYIN FROM LEFT TO CENTER. HE’S ARE (BOY) YOU REMEMBER THAT.
Grady: I’m only gonna tell you this ONE MORE TIME…get back on that corner and make my money (and you betta wear your track shoes)…don’t make me get my white hot clothes hanger, you hear???. If your’e the last doggy on the track you are gonna GET THE CLOTHES HANGER BEATDOWN!!! – DON’T MAKE MOMMA MAD!! (tell my biotch to bring me my money)…
I for one found the whole article offensive. The song itself isn’t the point. The fact is people keep pointing fingers at Obama but doesn’t everyone deserve a break! I’m so tired of everyone coming down on him. We should all be rejoicing right now! I’m an African American young woman, 15, and i do believe it is time for a change!!!
THAT’S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE ABOUT TO BECOME PRESIDENT OF THE USA. IT’S HAPPENED TO EVERY PRESIDENT IN OUR CONTRIES HISTORY,SO STOP WITH ALL THIS SUDDEN BEHAVIOR ABOUT HOW WE NEED TO BE NICER TO THE PRESIDENT. MAN UP. BUSH TOOK IT FOR EIGHT YEARS FROM YOU PEOPLE, HIS DAD TOOK IT FOR FOUR YEARS,CLINTON TOOK IT FOR EIGHT YEARS. OBAMA IS HALF WHITE SO I KNOW HE CAN TAKE IT. IT’S THE HALF BLACK CRY BABY IN HIS BLOOD WERE WORRIED ABOUT. HE DESERVES NO BETTER THAN ANY OTHER PRESIDENT WE’VE HAD SO STOP WITH THE WAH WAH WAH.
Republicans wonder why they get less than 4% of the black vote. It is idiots like Chip Saltzman that prove the southern republicans are the GOP’s worst enemies.
First, there is no problem with political satire or making fun of anyone. However, as much as I didn’t like the politics or personalities of McCain or Palin, I would be offended if anyone released a song about “honkeys or crackers”. That is going too far! This song about Obama is going too far!
As a country, we have to know the limits of joking. This starts in schools when children joke around but some go too far. They bully or harass. This is the same .those bullies are now adults and don’t seem to know the difference between humor and the offensive.
We all know calling Obama a Magic”negro” is a very negative and highly offensive. Can’t we find higher, more intelligent ways of satire. This is just the most ignorant thing ever!!
personally yes its a darn shame but we as black people need to stop getting offended…cause we offend white,hispanics,chinese and it goes on…We do it and expect it to be ok but once someone comes wth a black joke we back on that slavery shiii…….Yes that man was wrong but its done and it cannot be changed…move on
