I’m tempted to say this is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard, but I know better by now.

And in Newsweek’s defense, if they can believe that Obama is sort of God, then it could present no trouble to their minds to think a friggin’ baby could be racist.1, 2


Notes

1. I’m assuming that, unlike every other bad behavior under the sun that we are supposed to overlook if it can be said to be because of nature or birth, we won’t have a movement to “whitewash” or even celebrate racism (for what it’s worth, I would remain consistent in deploring terrible behavior regardless of the excuse du jour).

2. No doubt this vision of every baby is a li’l racist will lend moral heft to the abortion movement, which has so far been disappointed by people not buying into their grisly argument that it’s better to kill the unborn child now than risk him being born poor in America.
