I love how the MSM likes to blow this stuff up into something it is not by trying to inject race into everything.
The song came with 40 others on an album from conservative satirist Paul Shanklin, a personal friend of Saltsman. The song is a parody of a 2007 Los Angeles Times column of the same title and is written to the tune of “Puff the Magic Dragon.” “Barack the Magic Negro lives in D.C.” the opening of the song goes.
“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.”
This is 6 paragraphs into that Politico article. The explanation of what is on the CD should be in the second paragraph right after what the controversy is about. Instead they talk about how this Saltsman guy is sending this CD to the voters for the GOP party chairmanship and how it is helping him among Republicans instead of hurting him. It also give a bunch of GOP members reaction statements.
If you just see "Barack the Magic Negro" splashed up there you think that the GOP is forwarding racist stuff. But if you read the part that it is the actual title of a Los Angeles Times article then you see it in a totally different light. It is just a parody of an actual article and is not racist in the least. It just goes to show you how far the MSM goes to tar and feather the GOP.
