GOP mum on 'Magic Negro' parody

But of course they are!! Democrats haven't figure out that whole "outraged" thing that the R's have learned so well.

A candidate for the Republican National Committee chair sent out a holiday CD to committee members that includes the song "Barack the Magic Negro," a parody first aired on Rush Limbaugh's radio show.

To date, no Republican officials have condemned the CD.

Original story here.

UPDATE- Seems someone finally checked their Blackberry. But note that Duncan is one of Saltsman's rivals for RNC Chair-

Republican National Committee Chairman Mike Duncan issued a statement Saturday distancing the party’s leadership from one of the GOP’s best-known operatives, Chip Saltsman, who distributed a CD containing “Barack the Magic Negro” as part of his campaign to be elected chairman of the Republican National Committee next month.

Duncan's statement, in full: "The 2008 election was a wake-up call for Republicans to reach out and bring more people into our party. I am shocked and appalled that anyone would think this is appropriate as it clearly does not move us in the right direction."

Update to the Update- Saltsman is toast.
