MSNBC’s First Read and Luke Russert description of one of the signs at the GOP teabagger rally today:
“I’m the King of the World: Remember the Titanic?” (Drawing of Obama in the mold of the ‘Jovial Sambo’ from the Jim Crow era doing the Leo Titanic pose.”
MSNBC adds just below this blurb:
NOTE: It is important to know that this rally was set up by the GOP. While other groups certainly got people to show up, the folks who came here ultimately came at the invitation of the Republican Party. The GOP provided the speakers and the music, etc.
I wonder if Chris Matthews will have the Sambo guy on his show tonight.
