Barack the magic negro
happy monday one and all!
lets get down to bizness, shall we?
Imus gets the heave ho for calling some college women basketball players "nappy-headed hos" and yet Rush Limburger Cheese that fat sweathog plays "Barack The Magic Negro" on his show and he is still on the air?
How is that even possible?
It is a parody by Paul Shanklin impersonating Al Sharpton and based on the Peter, Paul, and Mary hit song "Puff, the Magic Dragon".
The Magic Negro is a figure of postmodern folk culture, coined by snarky 20th century sociologists, to explain a cultural figure who emerged in the wake of Brown vs. Board of Education. "He has no past, he simply appears one day to help the white protagonist," reads the description on Wikipedia.
if you havent read the lyrics or heard the tape here it is. its moronic. and NOT FUNNY AT ALL.
Barack the Magic Negro lives in D.C.
The L.A. Times, they called him that
'Cause he's not authentic like me.
Yeah, the guy from the L.A. paper
Said he makes guilty whites feel good
They'll vote for him, and not for me
'Cause he's not from the hood.
See, real black men, like Snoop Dog,
Or me, or Farrakhan
Have talked the talk, and walked the walk.
Not come in late and won!
[refrain] Oh, Barack the Magic Negro, lives in D.C.
The L.A. Times, they called him that
'Cause he's black, but not authentically.
Oh, Barack the Magic Negro, lives in D.C.
The L.A. Times, they called him that
'Cause he's black, but not authentically.
Some say Barack's "articulate"
And bright and new and "clean."
The media sure loves this guy,
A white interloper's dream!
But, when you vote for president,
Watch out, and don't be fooled!
Don't vote the Magic Negro in -
'Cause � 'cause I won't have nothing after all these years of sacrifice
And I won't get justice. This is about justice. This isn't about me, it's about justice.
It's about buffet. I don't have no buffet and there won't be any church contributions,
And there'll be no cash in the collection plate.
The President-Elect's famously stem-winding stump speeches did draw huge crowds to hear him talk of uniting rather than dividing, during the campaign. A praiseworthy goal. Consequently, even the mild criticisms thrown his way have been waved away, "magically." He used to smoke, but now he doesn't; he racked up a bunch of delinquent parking tickets, but he paid them all back with an apology. And hey, is looking good in a bathing suit a bad thing?
Well, I for one dont care what colour the mans skin is or his ethnicity; The People Of The United States of America Voted him in office, and I support the Office of President of The United States; if the man elected can do the job he is elected to do, then let the man do his job, if not, then we will have an oppurtunity to vote him out.
as for Rush Windbag the sweathog, hes still broadcasting. WHY?? now, theres a rat bastard that needs to be fired!
On the job front, 3 folks have gotten the heave ho over the weekend, i have not recieved word yet, and i assisted in catching a shoplifter yesterday. i need to check my mail this afternoon to see if i got my heave ho letter. i am seriously worried. i'll know more later. stay tuned.
this has been the NBC (NoBodyCares) Radio Network
