“Hey, you know how Obama’s half black and half white? Here’s a cool graphic idea.”

Let’s file this under “Tasteless PhotoShop.” Either that or “Holy freakin’ moly, what if Fox News had done it.”

"Ebony and ivory live together in perfect harmony." Paul McCartney, 1982

CreativeMinorityReport.com has the story:

Accompanying their election coverage on their website, CBS published this photoshopped picture of a half black/half white President Obama with Republicans and Democrats on either side of him as if to say he is split between the two. 



Needless to say Obama’s white side is on the side of the GOP’s John Boehner and Eric Cantor. His black half is on the side of Harry Reid and Charles Schumer. Are they saying that Obama will have to act white with Republicans? 



How could anyone think that changing the President’s skin tone like this would be a good idea? This has got to be either one of the most racially insensitive and just plain ol’ stupid photoshops a major news organization has done since Time Magazine blackened OJ Simpson’s face. The idiocy of this is only heightened by the fact that Obama’s heritage is mixed.

Ebony and Ivory sucked when Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder did it as a duet. It’s even worse when Barack Obama does it solo.

  • Call me shallow, but I never noticed the split color until the article pointed it out. I guess I'm just not fixated on the color of someone's skin like liberals are.

  • A Half-Cracker™ is a Half-Cracker™ no matter how they photo-shop him, no matter how he tries to hide or disavow it.

    He ain't black, he ain't white. He's just another yellow-@ss mofo half-breed.

    • A year or so ago the funniest thing to do on youtube was find some political argument in the comments where there would inevitably be something like "well now derz a blak presdent wut U think of dat mofo? HAHA"

      and remind everyone that he's half-white and his black daddy bounced on mommy so white still win. (and that Tupac always sucked). That would piss them off REAL bad.

      • "Well Bob, Gregory has won 5.000 boxes of Tide, 350 Snickers bars, an overnight trist at the No Tell Motel with Obomie the Commie, and a blow up Barak doll, with removable/ replaceable penis."

  • This can also say that he's a no good dirty rotten TWO FACED son of a behar, uh, I mean bitch. sorry. Carry on.

  • Harmony? Get real! On the left, lies and corruption. On the right.. RIGHT! In the middle, a slimey cameleon.
