That’s what Dan Rather said.
Now, I would have said “ice to an eskimo”, or “s**t to farmer”. But, that would be stereotyping. In Chris Matthews minds, connecting a black man to watermelons is nothing to blink an eye at. Some people will fein shock and horror at Dan for being so, well, obvious. Me, I’m saving it for Chris Matthews. If Dubya had said that, he would have been all over it. Keith Olbermann would have had an orgasm. Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and a few others would have accused MSNBC of being complicit and urged everyone to boycott MSNBC until they donated $50 million bucks to their “cause”. But, when a liberal icon says something like that, well, it doesn’t mean anything because they could never be racist in any way if they were a member of the liberal media. It just can’t happen. Expect nothing from this. Rush Limbaugh and Michelle Malkin will have some fun and that will be about it.
But, the next time someone accuses anyone who’s critical of Obama as being racist, they better make sure they documented the same disdain for Rather.
What I really like are the people that are seriously making the argument that equating watermelons with a black man in no way possible is racist.
Yeah.
