Obama was a little uneasy with it as well I noticed, but then again it is also difficult speak to the back of another mans head.<BR/><BR/>Two, it is not so much an issue of racism as it is an example of how we do politics. It is similar to how one will start a sentence with "the Honorable so-and-so from the great state of blah" and then proceed to charge this same person as being anti-American or something. <BR/><BR/>These guys are used to saying the most G-d awful things to or about each other, they're just trained to never address them directly to/at the person they are speaking of.<BR/><BR/>All that aside, the same word you ended with is the same one that I thought of when watching.
