Outspoken Rush Limbaugh went on the offensive again on Wednesday by calling the new Oreo that will have both chocolate and vanilla cream as a 'biracial' cookie. He then went on to say on his radio show that 'it isn't going to be long before it's going to be called the Or-Bam-eo or something like this.' Limbaugh later called it the 'Or-Bam-eo' himself, using the term to mock Michelle Obama's campaign against childhood obesity. Scroll down to hear the Oreo segment Racially charged? Rush Limbaugh courted criticism on Wednesday when he discussed the new bigger Oreo cookie He said: 'The food industry responds with "Take this" and Kraft comes up with the Or-Ba-Meo.' The long-awaited Triple Double Oreo, a new version of the iconic sandwich cookie, whose coming was announced in May, arrived in stores nationwide on Wednesday. Limbaugh has for years railed against liberals and Democrats driving America down the highway to hell. Many Americans may have given Limbaugh the benefit of the doubt over the years concerning the various charges that he might be either a racist or a closeted one. Cringeworthy comparison: Rush Limbaugh referred to the white and chocolate cream in the new cookie That benefit probably now has been rescinded. An Oreo is not only a cookie made by Kraft Foods. It is also a denigrating slang term used to pejoratively describe a black person who acts as if they are actually white. The idea being that they are black on the outside and white on the inside. It is used to describe others who appear to be something they are not. It is also common knowledge that President Obama's lineage includes his white Kansas-born mother as well as his black Kenya-born father. Some commentators believe it is doubtful that Mr Limbaugh was unaware of the double meaning of the word.

JERRY: Uhm, The thing about eating the Black and White cookie, Elaine, is you want to get some black and some white in each bite. Nothing mixes better than vanilla and chocolate And yet somehow racial harmony eludes us. If people would only look to the cookie all our problems would be solved. ELAINE: Your views on race relations are fascinating. You really should do an op-ed piece for the Times. JERRY: Um, um, Look to the cookie Elaine. Look to the cookie. -- ELAINE: What's the matter with you? JERRY: Uh, I don't feel so good. ELAINE: What's wrong? JERRY: My stomach, I , I think it was that cookie. ELAINE: The black and white? JERRY: Yeah. ELAINE: Not getting along? JERRY: I think I got David Duke and Fahrikan down there. ELAINE: Well if we can't look to the cookie where can we look? JERRY: I feel like I'm going to throw up.
Obama has played at being a president while enjoying the perks … golf, insanely expensive vacations at tax-payer expense. He has ignored the responsibilities of the job; no plans, no budgets, no alternatives … just finger pointing; making him a complete failure as a president
