Apparent Closet Racist Rachel Maddow Describes Obama as 'Boy King'
Those crickets you hear? Her fellow left-wingers responding to Rachel Maddow referring to then-President Elect Obama as a "boy king" on her MSNBC show last night.
Yes, hard to believe. Even in an era when the president of the United States is a man of color, as is our attorney general, as is the governor of Massachusetts where Maddow lives, Obama must be subjected to such vile disrespect -- a black man at the pinnacle of achievement described as a mere "boy," albeit of the monarchical variety. (video clip after page break)
It hardly lessens the sting that this came from one of Obama's most vocal defenders in the leeward media, Maddow herself, an ardent liberal who can detect racism, real or imagined, anywhere in a 10-state radius.
Listen for yourself from the embedded video while Maddow takes off her KKK hood just long enough to commit this utter outrage (1:09 in the clip). If any children are within earshot of your computer, you may want to shield them lest they pursue a path of skepticism toward affirmative action and speech codes as a result of witnessing this crime against humanity.
That non-existent reaction from liberals after Maddow revealed she is the late George Wallace's alter ego stands in sharp contrast to the left-wing hissy fit after Rush Limbaugh had the Maddowesque gall to describe Obama as a "little boy" and "this little man-child."
At the very least, Maddow can expect a cold shoulder at the water cooler from MSNBC colleague and inveterate grievance monger Al Sharpton, who pounced on the chance to pontificate after Pat Buchanan described Obama to Sharpton as "your boy."

You mean like liberals claim that every criticism of and disagreement with Obama is racist?
as in "You lie, BOY!!" which is what Maureen Dowd imagined Joe Wilson saying, even though he didn't say "Boy."
See? Sometimes one can be racist even without saying "boy." Because they KNOW that's what was meant.
Liberals know the truth. The facts are a conspiracy. -motherbelt's axiom

you've made your case for liberal hypocrisy and revealed a gift for stinging sarcasm, so how about sharing your opinion on the propriety of the word "boy" itself--when used in association with a person of color. Does it inappropriately evoke historically offensive racial labeling and patronization, or is it rather a matter of excessive and exploitative homage paid to contemporary political correctness? Or do neither of those choices accurately reflect your view?

Talk about embarrassing - your unending braggadocio in that regard is pathetic.

It is revenge for having to see Obama's face plastered everywhere thanks to liberals, Democrats, fools, and welfare weenies.
I must admit that the satisfaction I receive when you unfailingly rise to the bait, and then squeal and use big words to call me names, is also a hoot.

I'm black and I don't think it is racist. Demeaning, but not racist. I thought a boy king was an extremely young inexperienced youth forced into leadership either by the natural death or assassination of a relative. Boy kings don't usually govern, his many advisors do it for him. The boy king is just the show piece. I believe typically the boy king is usually assassination himself (as with king tut or other historical boy kings). Not asssinated by outside, but those thought to be close to him. (the use of the word assasination is only for historical reference).
Besides why is Maddow still using a romanticized king author bs to describe obama. He has deficits, low polls, and serious issues to deal with. Yet Maddow needs to reflect on newly elected boy king Obama. Honey, that was 3 years ago the AWE should of faded by now.
