I heard that Obama responded and said that he understood what Biden meant, no harm done.

I guess that he got the memo.

Joe Biden isn't a racist. he just said something really dumb as is his wont. Ted Kennedy, Robert "Sheets" Bird, Dick Durbin, on and on say stupid ass s*** on a regular basis and get a complete pass from the media.

Does anyone really seriously believe Trent Lott is a racist? Or does everyone understand he was just trying to say something nice, if stupid, to an old man at his birthday party.

Yeah. We need to lighten up. Obama is a nice, clean, boy.. and he doesn't talk like those city negroes. He sounds like he's white.

I think I understand what Biden meant by "clean". You only have to think Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. It was a poor choice of words and was not a good thing for him to say politically but he is actually right on the money. Still, there can be no doubt that if any Republican had said such a thing they would be calling for tar and feathers right now. How is it, do you suppose, that Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson get away with the things they do. They are untouchables in the media but only by Republicans. Democrats can be more oblique about it and they get away with it.

Yes, Biden loves the sound of his own voice and the taste of his own tootsies.

I heard that Obama responded and said that he understood what Biden meant, no harm done.

I somewhat agree with Biden on this...Obama is one of if not THE most promising black candidate for the presidency we've ever had. That doesn't make his comment any less foot-in-mouth, especially when it comes to politics.

The point however, is that if a republican had said this, news media outlets would have had a collective orgasm.

And then Obama came out 2 hours later, and nailed Biden to the wall.

Ah, the Presidential races....

And you, sir, are absolutely correct.

What Biden said was poorly crafted, but actually true. But we have become so hyper-sensitive about race, that plain speaking is no longer tolerated.

Frank, you did see that the post was from two years ago. It's safe.

Actually that one exists in German as well: GeorgeK ist mal wieder am ego-googeln.

But it feels more natural to do this in English, whereas in German it feels wrong.
