Barack Obama--Chicago Thug

By Ta-Nehisi Coates
I'm not very interested in Limbaugh being Limbaugh when he calls Obama a "Chicago thug." Still Adam Serwer's retort made me laugh:

You don't get much realer than Barack Obama, it's true. I hear he bleeds courvoisier. He chews spent slugs like bubblegum. He can roll a blunt with his toes.
Kids today still roll blunts?
