Rush Limbaugh is mining the student press, in this case The Tartan:

While the crowd was indeed diverse, some students at the event questioned the practices of Mrs. Obama’s event coordinators, who handpicked the crowd sitting behind Mrs. Obama. The Tartan’s correspondents observed one event coordinator say to another, “Get me more white people, we need more white people.” To an Asian girl sitting in the back row, one coordinator said, “We’re moving you, sorry. It’s going to look so pretty, though.”

Nice reporting, Tartan! Can you imagine the Wagner opera of angst and wailing that would ensue if Mrs. John McCain or a subordinate had uttered the words: ““Get me more white people, we need more white people” and then told an Asian girl, “We’re moving you, sorry. It’s going to look so pretty, though.”

Of course, the media pilloried the Republicans for staging a “minstrel show” convention when the GOP tried to showcase the ethnic diversity of its supporters.

“Get me more white people” is the most risible thing said this political season, and that is saying something.
