(NSFW) Would you consider this a racist statement? (details inside)

I just heard Kevin McCullough, nationally syndicated host of “The Kevin McCullough Show”, a show not know for its progressive views, refer to the President as ”... a power-hungry mongrel.” While I think we could all agree that being power hungry is pretty much a requirement for attaining the position, doesn’t calling Obama a “mongrel” have barely concealed racial overtones?

I know Bush was called many things but would anyone, on the left or right, have ever described him as a “mongrel”? Do you think any other President would ever have been referred to as such?
