The Sock Obama



Umm...Racist? Doug isn't so sure. We'll talk to Dave Lawson, the creator of the Sock Obama puppet, today at the top of the show. Before condemning him as a racist, let's hear his side of the story. President Bush is frequently portrayed as a primate, does this mean there is a double standard?

The 9'Clock Hour Rundown

Dave Lawson claimed there was no racism involved in his creation of the Sock Obama. He sounded genuine and naive. He truly seemed bewildered at the response to his puppet. Perhaps, those offended by the doll overreacted a bit. Perhaps they are just looking to be upset.
