There is much commentary about the connection between watermelons and

Blah, blah, blah.

Ever hear a black man or woman make a watermelon joke?

I have. Some guy named Cedric The Entertainer. Did it in conjunction
iwth...um...an Obama rally. People laughed. Thought it was funny.

Ever hear Whoopie Goldberg tell a watermelon joke? I have - several
of them in fact in the movie "Jumpin' Jack Flash".

Dave Chappelle? Check. Eddie Murphy and his Buckwheat character?
Check.

Some insult huh?
