Funny, I just watched it again.....some good ole southern boy calls up Mr. Barnes and calls Obama Monkey boy and your Mr. Barnes doesn't say squat. So what's your problem......don't know how to click on a link?

Wouldn't that have been the C-SPAN moderator's role? I think Barnes handled it fine. But before you blame the South for the remark, you should keep in mind the lyrics of the famous Randy Newman song "Rednecks" which I feel compelled to post here about once a month so we don't lose track of the real racism in this country.

Now your northern nigger's a Negro
You see he's got his dignity
Down here we're too ignorant to realize
That the North has set the nigger free

Yes he's free to be put in a cage
In Harlem in New York City
And he's free to be put in a cage on the South-Side of Chicago
And the West-Side
And he's free to be put in a cage in Hough in Cleveland
And he's free to be put in a cage in East St. Louis
And he's free to be put in a cage in Fillmore in San Francisco
And he's free to be put in a cage in Roxbury in Boston
They're gatherin' 'em up from miles around
Keepin' the niggers down
