Meet Mia Love. You'll be seeing a lot more of her.

No, I doubt she would, but how she would feel is irrelevant. It is an indicator that Vetteman is not using it in the 'Biden' manner of using it.

How she would feel is not irrelevant. How do you think President Obama would feel if some white person remarked to him how articulate he is? Do you think he would feel complimented?

 

[Busybody]

what BLACKS should be OFFENDED by

is having so many LIBZ n DUMZ n FELLOW BLACKS call SUCCESSFUL BLACKS.....Uncle Toms etc

is having Sharpton and Jackson representing them

is THUGS like Martin and Brown made into MARTYRS

 

[Busybody]

ask him.....hi Majority Leader and VP said that

 

[toubab]

Rest assured I will 'carry on.'

But referring once more to your original reply on the subject, please note the words that I've emboldened. I hope you understand the implications of what you wrote. It's OK to refer to a black Bahamian, or a black Haitian, or a black African as articulate but it becomes a pejorative term only when used in conjunction with "black Americans?" What the black individual of any other nationality would take as the compliment it was intended to be the 'black American' takes as an insult???? You realize how ridiculous that notion is I hope?

In no way did I say or imply it's okay to tell black people of any persuasion they are articulate. I'm merely pointing out it is particularly inappropriate in the US.

It depends on the manner in which it is said. Complimenting someone's ability to speak clearly is not an insult to that person. If you throw out context, you are doing nothing but manufacturing offense for the sake of scoring a 'lit win'.

Being called 'articulate' is not an insult, unless you drop in the 'despite being' or 'for a' qualifiers.

Go read the Joe Biden gaffe (even calling it a gaffe instead of racist remark is bad) if you want a true example of using this word racially.

The only way I would ever say something like that to a black person would be as a joke to someone I know really well. They would know I was being a fool with them.

it is RACIST to believe that a WHOLE COMMUITY will be offended by ONE WORD

 

[toubab]

Again, ridiculous. I'm sure you can think of a word a whole community considers offensive.

So how would that not be "Context"?

offensive?

maybe

action altering?




I have written about issues the BLACK COMMUNITY should be way more offended by


There is a Judge in my gym, she is black, and supports ONLY DUMZ etc...no matter what.....this election cycle, she went thru the reasons she will vote R the first time in her life.....included the way Michelle/Hussein Obola told her community to vote for Brown (MD) cause HE WAS BLACK....and more

She was offended at how HER community was made to make Brown/Martin hero's...she said THUGS SHOULDNT BE OUR HEROES!

She sounded like I DID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Until NOW, she was in total denial!

 

[Busybody]

what YOU are saying is that WE cant say the word NIGGER

but BLACKS can call each other NIGGER

what you are saying is that spouse beating/cop killing is horrific,

but millionaire rappers saying that is COOL

I think more black people will be reacting in the future the way your judge did.

We can say it, but I wouldn't advise doing it. It's unlikely to have a good effect.

 

[Busybody]

what BLACK people should be OFFENDED by is

how

M Love is treated

and how

M Waters etc are treated

SAYS IT ALL

how T Scott/H Caine/B Carsonc are treated

how A Sharpton etc are treated



what "women" should be offended by is how Obola SHIT on all stay at home Mothers

how FEMINISTS treat Palin etc.......

how Slut Fluke is a HERO and the new Sen from Iowa isnt

 

[eyer]

In Vette's defense, he used "articulate" to describe Sarah Palin. Last I looked, she's white.

Not that it changes the real world, but can you quote this? I'll believe it when I see it.

Go to search, put in articulate as the key word, his name for user name, click the "Posts" radio button at the bottom, select the GB as the sub-forum to search then click "Search Now".
Yeah, I was bored.

Annnnnnnnnnnd...

...crickets.

To be fair to Veggebigot, he did use the same word in reference to Sarah Palin back when she nearly mattered.

So what?

The Playground's calling you, tool.

Fuck you, idiot.

Lit advanced search... keywords: Articulate, housewife.... poster: Vetteman

search for posts.

It's there.

Well, to be fair, he's talking there about another group that he sees himself as above: women.

Awwwwww, the shitstain flameout above me is finding new life in this thread.

Corralling basic bitches has never been easier.

 

[kbate]

Well, to be fair, he's talking there about another group that he sees himself as above: women.

yes, but again he was only using it as a term for "intelligent and well spoken" not "despite being a women, she is amazingly well spoken".

He's bad enough without manufacturing offense.

 

[MeeMie]

A lot of convenient memory syndrome going on in this thread.



Harry Reid described Obama as a "light skinned African-American with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one"


Biden called Obama "the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy."

 

[MeeMie]

The *fake .pdf* argument was shredded by myself and others here that some of the birthers are too embarrassed to post here anymore. Please note, I have the skills to deconstruct a .pdf.

Just ask MeeMie, Rightfield and Slowlane.

HAHA! You have such a high regard for yourself (regardless of the facts)

Then and now you refused to even consider that the proof was documented by audit trails on the original altered document. You know, the original altered document that you didn't even have access to (which you admitted during that argument).

It was a losing argument to try to convince you of the facts ,supported by experts in the field, not because you were right, but rather because you were so compelled to prove everyone wrong based simply on your say so.

You didn't even see the file before it was replaced on the WH site.
