If Rush had said this...

When asked about his background, which includes a black father and white mother, Obama said of African-Americans: “We are sort of a mongrel people.”

"I mean we're all kinds of mixed up," Obama said. "That's actually true of white people as well, but we just know more about it."

Yep... that's the President of the United States referring to black people as "Mongrels".  (or rather referring to them as mongrels who know they're mongrels.)

Even better comes a little further along:

Obama noted "there's still a reptilian side of our brain" that leads people to not trust others "if somebody sounds different or looks different."

So now we're mongrels and dinosaurs, all rolled into one.

Can you imagine if Rush had said this (anyone remember how all hell broke loose over his "Halfrican-American" comment)?
