Barack Obama: Now He's a Skinny, Ghetto Crackhead?

Brent Bozell, the president of the Media Research Center, appeared on Fox News Thursday night and suggested President Barack Obama looks like a skinny ghetto crackhead.

Yep, that exact phrase.

Bozell was talking with Mark Steyn -- filling in for Sean Hannity -- about MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, who said in March that GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich looks like a car bomber.

After Steyn joked that Gingrich just looked like a "big, ugly, slightly older Winnie the Pooh," Bozell wondered how long Hannity’s show would last “if four times in one sentence [Hannity] made a comment about, say, the President of the United States and said he looked like a skinny ghetto crackhead."

So far so good -- until Bozell moved out of the arena of hypothetical, adding: "Which, by the way, you might want to say that Barack Obama does.”

In Bozell’s opinion, everybody on the left would demand Hannity be fired for making such a remark.

Seems to us that means people should demand Bozell be fired.
