AQ: Obama A House Negro - OK, Now They've Gone Too Far

In a strongly worded reprimand, State Department spokesman Sean McCormack condemned Al-Qaeda strongman Ayman Zawahiri for referring to Barack Obama, Condoleezza Rice and Colin Powell as "house negros" in a newly released Al-Qaeda videotape.

"It's just, you know, more despicable comments from a terrorist," McCormack told reporters. "And if anybody needed ... more of a contrast between what ... the West and the United States stand for, in terms of democracy and what these terrorists stand for, I don't think you need to go any further than those comments."

Ouch.

As an aside, I had no idea that Harry Belafonte was moonlighting as an Al-Qaeda speechwriter.
