Is that any better? To call the First Lady “ghetto”?

Why make ourselves out to be ungentlemanly towards a completely IRRELEVANT figure upon absolutely irrelevant matters (i.e. her looks, her style, mistaken notions of her being “ghetto” rather than from a middle class background.)?

Let the Letterman's and other lowlifes do what they will.

We at least should be the ADULTS and address issues of import.

Certainly it's not any "better." But to go after the children is far worse.

You can also direct that statement to the black property owners/renters on Martha’s Vineyard.

Interesting point.

Ghetto means low-life (could also mean redneck for some) now. Funny how words mean different things at different periods in time. Same with white trash or trailer park, etc.

Interesting how some words/terms are accepted and some aren’t.
