Bill Clinton Mugged By Black Man

Heh.

Former President Clinton on Monday called the notion that he unfairly criticized his wife’s rival, Barack Obama, “a total myth and a mugging.” Clinton had compared Obama’s landslide victory in South Carolina’s Jan. 26 primary to Jesse Jackson’s wins in the state in 1984 and 1988.

Clinton was widely criticized for appearing to cast Obama as little more than a black candidate popular in a state with a heavily black electorate. He was widely accused of fanning racial tensions.

“They made up a race story out of that,” Clinton said of the news media, calling the story “a bizarre spin.”

One would think that such a skilled politician would choose his words better. 

1. I’m afraid he did choose them carefully.

2. Clinton has been “mugged” by Obama and O’Reilly is going to “lynch” Obama’s wife if he can find justification.

   Latent racism in this race?  Naaah

3. Chose his words better because black people and muggings are inexorably linked, right?  Classy.
