Incredible, isn't it? That was a speech from 2007, when Obama was already running for president. Of course it was covered by the media!

But Fox 'News' is still - desperately - trying to remind America that Barack Obama is... black!  OMG, how scary is that? I guess we didn't notice that before, did we?

How depressing is it that, in the 21st Century, race-baiting like this still works? Sean Hannity makes a ton of money scaring old white bigots. The whole point is politics - and money - so they wouldn't do it if it didn't work.

Anyway, this follow-up clip is pretty good, too:
