My God you have went off the deep end. So blacks are great entertainers and cooks is all you could come up with? The old black lady cooking with love. Can someone help me out here? He will not listen to me.
Help you out with what? You asked for just one, I gave you 2 points and now you're still bitching.
It is how it is applied by the person using the term, or did you miss that?
I read it and it wasnt at all racist then either. Its left wing racists who think that if someone says "ghetto" the mean black.. I'm sorry but I'm not a racist and I know that the term referrs to INCOME, or more partiuclar ones housing location, not color of skin. You HAVE to be a racist to think it is deals with color of skin. Dont start to back peddle now on your own racism, I seen how you voted!
It's not descriptive, it's only pejorative, and as used against President Obama, it serves as a euphemism for the word these people have learned they can't use any more in mixed company.
Why do the liberals always get so upset when you call it what it is? What's next? Calling Obama a ******** is racist, too? 'Cause, you know, he is one!
All this political correctness. Can't call a ****** a ******, either without the libs getting upset.

I'm still trying to figure out why someone would compare an Ivy league overachiever who became POTUS to a word that denotes poverty, lack of education, crime, and violence. Would you be offended if someone called Herman Cain that? What about Ronald Reagan?

Ahhh, I never considerd you to be racist nor did I suggest you were one, but then after I point out that it is How it was applied that makes the difference, you call me one. Just shaking my head in disgust

The statement which started all of this someone said Obama would ACT like they were a ghetto goon.. Not BE one...

Racist:
based on racism: based on prejudices and stereotypes related to race
Yep.. thinking ghettos are limited to blacks would make one a racist. Shake your head all you wish but its you liberals who the term was racist.
