When accused of unreasonably deflecting all possible forms of negative criticism on the grounds of his status as America's first black President, President Barack Obama today responded to what was clearly racist criticism by asserting that he had had no idea of his skin color.
In fact, reports suggest that the president was asleep at the time of the incident, and only discovered what had happened when he watched the news in the morning.
Jay Carney addressed the public at noon, insisting that "The race of the President is not strictly the President's responsibility. The blame needs to fall on those responsible, the ones who created the NAACP and other Pro-African American rights institutions. And, last I checked, these institutions were put into power by Republicans."
VP Joe Biden denounced the efforts of Republican politicians and talk radio hosts to try and hold the president accountable "based on the content of his character" as "nothing more than a racist, politically motivated Republican witch hunt, engineered to distract from important political and social problems, like how the racist teabillies refuse to give the president anything that he wants simply because of his skin."
The official response from the NAACP states that "thinking that Obama blames everything on racism is racist."
