Illegals in my yard.
Sixteen arrive in a stolen car[…]They’re getting free organ transplants this Christmas.
They’re going to have anchor babies this Christmas.
They’re going to scream “sí, se puede” this Christmas.
Those illegals in my yard[…]They’re going to spread bubonic plague this Christmas.
They’re going to bring me lots of bed bugs this Christmas.
They’re going to pass tuberculosis this Christmas.
Those illegals in my yard.
Wonk Room and C & L proceed to decry this as some sort of horrible thing. There is only one problem with that; what about the racism on the left, among the liberal Democrats?

BILL O’REILLY: The reason that Limbaugh is not going to be able to buy into the NFL is because a bunch of made-up stuff became legend, and he got hammered.
WARREN BALLANTINE: OK, we won’t look at the made-up stuff. Let’s look at him playing “Barack The Magic Negro”, and we’re going to say that’s just funny, that’s just a joke, that’s not racial either. It is racial to real black people.
JUAN WILLIAMS: Hey Warren, you were saying my argument was a red herring. Maybe you should do some research, go back and find out that it was an article written by a black person, headlined “Barack The Magic Negro.”
BALLANTINE: He made it a song and played it on his show.
WILLIAMS: So what? He was making fun of it.
BALLANTINE: You can go back to the porch, Juan. You can go back. It’s OK.
O’REILLY: All right guys: good debate, good-spirited debate.
Bill, of course, missed it, but Juan Williams did not and the next day, he was on the air:
As you can most likely see by now, the Democrats are very hypocritical when it comes to race and racism. Heck, the Democrats promoted segregation in the south for years. In case you are wondering, here is the point of reference on the comment made to Williams:
Just a short memo to the Democrats and the Liberal Bloggers; clean the mess up in your own backyards, before you try to criticize the mess in ours. Because nothing says hypocrite more than people who scream racism, when you have some in your own damned ranks. Now as for the recording? Was it offensive? Sure. I would have never allowed to be published. However, I find it very hard to believe that the Liberals are complaining about this, seeing that have Black Bigots like Warren Ballantine in their own ranks.
What is it that AllahPundit says over at HotAir? Oh, right… Nuance.
