Yeah, I remember Rush calling Obama a 'Magic Negro' some time ago because it popped up on Drudgereport. I did not know the details because I didn't read the article so I have no idea how he applied it to Obama. But there was a song? What?

All I really know about the term is Spike Lee was the one to coin it and defined it in one of his usual rants against Hollyweird in an interview or press junket or something.
