    Okay Sweeties

    Barack Obama calls a female report "sweetie" and middle-aged, affluent white Hillary Harpies went apesh%t. John McCain wants the world to check out Cindy's tits and not a peep from the Hillary Harpies. Surprise, surprise.

    My friends, this is not about what Barack eats or drinks for breakfast, or what he gives or doesn't give his kids for Christmas, or holding his hand over his heart during the Star Spangled Banner, or "not knowing his core" and other BS the clingy, bitter, white malcontents are trying to push. My friends, this is about an uppity colored man not knowing his place. At least foot shufflin' Miss Daisy-drivin Harold Ford knows his.
