Obviously a horrendous typo in my previous tweet. My apologies 9:54 AM - 8 Oct 13
Yup.
I am surprised they have not repainted the White House in brown or black?
Good point!
;-)
or Koreans
Or Korean Yankees...
Typo’s happen.
Why, the other day I typed; “Obama has a bigger mindest.” And lots of people caught my mistake right away.
That is probably true, but does anyone think for one minute that if a R made the same exact mistake s/he’d be cut any slack?
My grandparents said colored.
The n word was a spanking offense at my house and theirs as well. Never got spanked for it though. Heard someone use it and asked my grandmother about it. Was informed it was hateful and a fighting word. And that only ‘low class white trash’ used it.
Funnily enough my own kids picked up the n word from their pediatricians office waiting room. One black chick walked in, saw a friend of hers with a new baby and commented ‘that is the fattest little ‘n’ baby i’ve ever seen!’. Of course my kids did the ‘new word’ thing and used it constantly for a few weeks. My youngest became the ‘fattest little ‘n’ baby’ for the older two. *sigh*
We ignored it and it went away. Just what I needed though. Walk through the wal mart parking lot in Hazlehurst and have my kids yell a fighting word at each other within earshot of the perpetually aggrieved.
So the guy hit the 'n' key & typed nigger, instead of the 'b' key next to it for 'bigger'. Get a grip, sh-t happens.
My grandmother from the “old country” used the N word.
As in “That nice nigger girl from across the street came over with some fresh baked bread and I made coffee and we had a lovely time together.” (Of course the woman was in her fifties I suppose! But to my 90+ year old GM still a “girl”). While I knew that her choice of words (both of them!) was inappropriate, it was far from me as a child to correct her on it!
That’s it.
What a fumass.
In the name of FAIRNESS he now needs to join Michael Richards on the Permanent Unemployment Line....
No apology is acceptable. He is racist.
Using my iPhone, I just typed “nigger” into a text message to see what would happen and it autocorrected to “bigger”. fwiw.
I wonder if he was tweeting on a smartphone, or some other device.
Be nice if he WH status was put somewhere.
Had to go searching to find out he is the deputy communications director for the White House.
