CNN host, sponsored by Best Buy, says Obama is "colorless ... he might as well be white"

This is the same CNN host who said that Muslim-Americans need to prove they're not working with the terrorists, who used the word "faggot" on the air and suggested it wasn't much of a slur, and who earlier today referred to one of the female singers of the Dixie Chicks as "the fat one." What a surprise that in addition to his problems with Muslims, gays, and women, he's also insensitive to African-Americans. And CNN and ABC (where he also is a commenter) have no problem with that.

And to top it off, Best Buy sponsors this pig. As do Ford, Office Depot and Welchs. We are so posting phone numbers come Tuesday morning. More from Media Matters.
