Washington Post: Dinesh D’Souza is so ‘ghetto’
Washington Post ^ | 02/19/2015 | By Jonathan Capehart

Dinesh D’Souza is a disgusting man. He shocked the conscience in November 2013 when he tweeted, “I am thankful this week when I remember that America is big enough and great enough to survive Grown-Up Trayvon in the White House!”

Today, the vile right-winger added to his racist repertoire.

D’Souza’s slam of the president caused gasps across the Twitterverse because “ghetto” has long been negatively synonymous with African American in popular culture and politics. But let’s face it, all sorts of folks have been labeling things or people deemed lacking class, taste or refinement as “ghetto” for years now. It’s a brand of one-percent sneering that the rest of us hurl at each other all the time, either seriously or in jest. It’s a put-down that packs a punch because there is no denying how bad being branded “ghetto” is.

Isn't "ghetto" as a pejorative one of the hurtful words being banned on college campuses?

WaPo is so culturally insensitive.

When someone makes himself “g-word” for the “h-word” of it, then yeah! it can, may, and even should be called out.

Barack did it to himself. Souza dared to say something about it.

Meanwhile, Obama labeled his white grandmother a “typical white” person. While less “charged,” it is nastier, IMO.

RE: Grown-Up Trayvon in the White House!

Well, didn’t Obama tell us that Trayvon would have been his son? So yes, he’s the grown up version of his son ... can’t see how this conclusion doesn’t follow.
