Down For The Struggle

The last thing he [Obama] is is African-American. ~Limbaugh

This is truly weird.  Even by Limbaugh’s standards, it makes no sense.  Kenya is an “Arab part of Africa” and Obama is an Arab?  Don’t tell the Kikuyus and Luos–they think it’s their part of Africa.  This is either the most ignorant thing the man has ever said, or it is a calculated attempt to mobilize the strong anti-Arab sentiment in this country against Obama.  Take your pick.  What’s particularly bizarre about this is that Obama is someone who has a far better argument for calling himself African-American, since he is the son of someone from Africa and was born in America.

Update: Limbaugh has done it again, this time interpolating the word Arab into a description of Obama’s heritage.  I think this settles the ignorance vs. deception question squarely in favor of deliberate deception.
