John McLaughlin Shouts About Some Fancy Biracial Snack Food
Apparently someone on Earth still watches The McLaughlin Group and thank god for that, because old coot host John McLaughlin tends to say some pretty funny things about this Barack Obama character. A couple of months ago he interrupted Eleanor Clift's Obama analysis and shouted "WARREN HARDING WAS A NEGRO," which is true. While McLaughlin's performance yesterday doesn't quite match that, it's still a fine piece of old coot theatrics: he rants that Obama is an "oreo," meaning he wants to dip him in milk and eat him. And here's a longer version in which you can view Peter Beinart's slappy reaction. [YouTube, CNN]
