Declare a basketball-loving president a basketball-loving president and you’re racist.
State a black Congressman is a member of the "Party of the Apes" and crickets.
For the media, though, this has never been about race and has always been about politics. The corrupt media is only looking for ways to rescue Obama and screaming RACIST is a pretty nifty way to avoid using the word "jobs."

Rest assured, the media still won't cover Maher's indefensible attack, even after one of the most well-known Congressmen in the country calls attention to it. We won’t hear a peep from the Congressional Black Caucus either, because it's really the Congressional Leftist Caucus That Happens To Be Black Because The Media Loves Identity Politics.
Oh, we might see some obligatory reporting, but not the kind of narrative that would swarm a Sean Hannity or Dennis Miller had one of them written the exact same thing about a black Democrat.
Like much of the media that protects him, Maher is rich, white, privileged, and powerful and therefore can say anything he pleases about a black man. You know, as long as it's one of "those" black men -- the kind that doesn’t behave the way the rich, white, powerful and privileged think he should.
