You have not heard this?

It was done during an interview in Philadelphia Pa today.

Guess the media is not wanting it to get out.

He was asked about his granny and the racist comment come right out of his own mouth.

Do not worry it will be news "after" Obama comes up with another speech on how to cover his butt on this one.

Breitbart.tv » Obama: Grandmother a ‘Typical White Person’ Who Fears People She Doesn’t Know

One news anchor said that this is the end for him after this racist comment.
Know everyone is wondering what he really believes after this comment.
The real Barrack Obama is coming out of the closet.

CNN had it on, too. Lou Dobbs ran it and now Larry King is asking him about it. He's dancing furiously, LOL.

He is on Larry King right now saying "that good people - people that are not in any way racist still act in this way."

I think if people are honest then they have heard racist remarks at some time - maybe this is just a southern issue - but in the south both blacks and whites have used language in private that they don't use in pubic.

The point would be that it doesn't hurt to acknowledge this fact and not use that language anywhere. The pain that people felt in the 50's and 60's is the past and doesn't need to be felt by children today by hearing rascist remarks.
