It's getting deeper, and it's only June

The Los Angeles Times has an article about the anti-Obama crap going on in the blogosphere. First was the ugly rumor that his wife had said "whitey" in a speech from the pulpit of Trinity United Church of Christ. That was rapidly refuted, but the Obama campaign has had to put up fightthesmears in order to have a single source of reality.

Rico says it's sad that things have gotten so stupidly mean in this campaign, but in actuality he doesn't even care if Michelle Obama did call non-blacks 'whitey', from a pulpit or anywhere else. Unlike nigger, kike, spic, or any of the other slang words we use to denigrate others, being called 'whitey' doesn't sting, even a little bit.
