Obama dismisses claims of racial slur on slippers Not stereotyping, White House says Facing an uproar from President Obamas most loyal base of supporters, the White House on Thursday rejected claims that Mr. Obama stereotyped blacks when he told them to take off your bedroom slippers and work for his re-election. I have heard him make similar comments to all sorts of different groups, said presidential press secretary Jay Carney, who fielded nearly a dozen questions from the White House press corps about Mr. Obamas comments and his relationship with black supporters. Hes certainly used vivid language, similarly vivid language, before a variety of audiences. But a search of Mr. Obamas speeches dating back to mid-May shows that he has used the quip about bedroom slippers only one other time on Sept. 14 at North Carolina State University, while promoting his jobs bill. About 8 percent of students at N.C. State are black. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/sep/29/obama-gives-boot-to-claims-of-slur-on-slippers/ LOL! More Obama admin. fail. His admin. is failing beyond my wildest dreams. _
I thought it was a really odd comment. Why would he think these people (professional people) would be in their bedroom slippers? Does he think they go home after work and do nothing? Well okay... Shelia Jackson Lee does nothing but order her staff around, but the rest of the CBC, I'm sure are fairly busy after hours, as well. It ranked right up there with his "wee-weein' themselves" comment. What does that mean?
Leftists are so adept at fomenting divisiveness and wallowing in perpetual outrage about something or another.... they can't get out of their own way.... thankfully.
