RNC chairman candidate defends 'Barack the Magic Negro'

Chip Saltsman sent out the CD to committee members for Christmas

Saltsman: "I think most people recognize political satire when they see it"

Song to tune of "Puff the Magic Dragon" first played on Rush Limbaugh's show

Saltsman said song is satire of an Los Angeles Times article

6. must be another one of those..
instances where people are too stupid to see the 'sarcasm'.

According to The Hill, other song titles, some of which were in bold font, were: "John Edwards' Poverty Tour," "Wright place, wrong pastor," "Love Client #9," "Ivory and Ebony" and "The Star Spanglish Banner."
