I have been in public schools for a number of years; the dreaded “N” word is used as often as is the article “the”. This self righteous indignation over the use of the dreaded “N” word is applied only to Caucasians, while predominately black students, rappers and black comedians can drop that bomb without hesitation or consequence. I'm surprised that Michelle or or the “one” did not jump to her defense since she supported both. They must have a $100,000,000 reasons in Africa not to lend their support! Just another limousine liberal played and used by the king and queen of the United States. She just got burned; maybe she can put some buttah on that! I guess O ain't her “N” after-all!

It is a double standard and since Paula Deen, a loyal BHO supporter, went against the rules of The Party, The Party tossed her under the bus. I'm not a fan of Bill Maher but he is right on one thing where he said that "why do people have to go away if they used a certain word." Also, I like what Lt. Uhura said in Star Trek, "in the 23rd Century, we learned not to fear words."

We also have a double standard, if Paula Deen was a rapper and used the word, she would be applauded at best, nothing said at worst. I think this double standard has bred more racism and/or animosity along with the election itself. My mother feels the animosity and so do I. A lot of people do. I think overall, we were on the right track at race relations until LBJ's War of Poverty on one hand, the political correctness and double standard on the other plus the elections of 2008 and 2012 did not help either. They create people to be bitter toward them.

I got into a discussion on Facebook (OK, when will I learn, I know, spare the "I told you so's") and I got jumped on a like a gang of Messerschmidts on a B-17. There is no reasoning it seem, people are either brainwashed and/or have an axe to grind, there is no getting through to them. I get so tired of it where if I'm accused of being a racist, I just said, "yeah I am" and move on. I just get on with my life, I have more problems now than I can shake a stick at.
