Harry Belofante Now Officially Senile

We've seen it coming for some years now, but it looks like former singer Harry Belofante has finally crossed that line between mildly annoying and completely nuts (from Fox News):
Veteran singer Harry Belafonte, who once compared Colin Powell to an obedient slave, now says African-American officials in the Bush administration are "black tyrants" even though he seemed to question whether they make any real contribution, saying, "Hitler had a lot of Jews high up in the hierarchy of the Third Reich. Color does not necessarily denote quality, content or value."

Belafonte, in Atlanta over the weekend to push for an extension on the Voting Rights Act of 1965, added, "[If] a black is a tyrant, he is first and foremost a tyrant, then he is incidentally black. Bush is a tyrant and if he gathers around him black tyrants, they all have to be treated as they are being treated."

Har-ry, Ha - a - a - rry, daylight come and me want you go home.
