The real reason why Michelle's "whitey" comment is bullshit!
Blacks don't use the term "whitey"! That epitaph hasn't been uttered at least since 1974 and I was only 3 years old then!

Anybody want to help me confirm this? It's utter bullshit and Larry Johnson ought to be ashamed of himself.

Very sad that he worked with Valerie Plame and I admired and revered him for his service to our nation, but this miserable display of desperation is the lowest of low.

If Hillary is going to win, let her win on the merits, not through dirty Rovian tricks!!

Very sad and pathetic!! :(

5. Evidently, Larry thinks black people talk like Amos n' Andy
I think this whole video 'controversy' will be his Waterloo. FOX Noise may get a hard-on over this, but most people will consider the whole thing ridiculous.

7. Why did he/ Why'd he/ Whitey-nt

But to go back to the content of your O.P. (and at the risk of sounding sterotypical myself) this is something that some THINK is commonly used among blacks,and sometimes that alone is enough for judgment unfortunately.

8. Google the term "Whitey". It barely even gets any hits.

That's what I've been saying!
Right On sistah! Solid, bro! I was 23 in '74. That's about as recently as I remember "whitey", too.

10. I'll believe it WHEN I see the video
Until then, this is simply a rumor.

12. One of the major reasons that this is possibly the stupidest
smear attempt I have seen in ages.. is that while Trinty UCC is in a neighborhood with a majority black population, which would mean most of the people in the church would be black.. a lot of white people go there too?? ..think about that for a second..

15. And I can't begin
to understand why people refuse to look at the big picture on something like that before they go off the deep end..:)

16. It's B.S. because it is the same white separatist paranoid fantasy that blacks are out to get us
and supposed "democrats" are perpetuating it. I no longer feel bad for the mistaking the "those people are shitting in the white house" video for something it is not. This isn't even an honest mistake and it has a vile source.

17. Exactly only white folks now say "whitey". Which is a big clue to the GOP source....
Edited on Mon Jun-02-08 09:04 AM by barack the house
It's all about getting Obama going after he defended his wife it's low, it's very GOP. As a black person I know if ever used it's words rhyming with smackers or polaroids.
