[from The Note]

"The first black president is destined and it's meant to be . . . Paint the White House black and I'm sure that's got 'em terrified / McCain don't belong in ANY chair unless he's paralyzed." -- Ludacris, in a charming little ditty that also takes on Hillary Clinton, President Bush, and Jesse Jackson.

"This song is not only outrageously offensive to Senator Clinton, Reverend Jackson, Senator McCain, and President Bush, it is offensive to all of us who are trying to raise our children with the values we hold dear. While Ludacris is a talented individual he should be ashamed of these lyrics."-- Obama spokesman Bill Burton.
