Even The Lightbringer is now incorrect
Obama recently referred to mongrel dogs as "mutts like me". So is the term "mutt" a slur? I have no doubt that the old term "halfbreed" now is.
A Korean lady has protested:
"I've heard mixed-race people use that term to describe themselves before, usually in the same ha-ha way Obama did. I've also heard it thrown around as an insult, a pejorative, a slur. I've felt the slap of that word across my face" she wrote. "My fear, however, is that Obama, as the first mixed-race president, will shape the way most Americans view people of mixed race for at least a generation. And will Obama calling himself a 'mutt' - with humor, as if the word is nothing, nothing at all - make it socially acceptable for people to start calling me a mutt? My kids?"
I must say that I personally was rather pleased to see Obama calling himself a "mutt". It was definitely self-deprecating and I still adhere to the Christian view that humility is a virtue.

Let’s face it, Blacks, Browns, Yellows and Reds can call themselves anything that they want to. And if a white person says the exact same word, then we have committed a Hate Crime and should be whipped, canned, hanged, drug behind a cars for hours, sued and then forced to attend a “diversity” class to learn the first sentence.
Black people have an association called the NAACP, the National Association for Advancement of Colored People. Yet when Lindsey Lohan says that the big B.O. is a “colored” president, she is admonished for using the “C” word.
A black person can sing a song with the “N” word in it and be praised. But if a white person sang the same song, it is a Hate Crime. Now why should it be a hate crime is a white person sings a song that he wouldn’t normally be associated with? Shouldn’t he be praised too, for showing Diversity for singing that song?
I can have a black person call me “A Dumb Cracker” and that is OK, once that I “Learn” the cultural roots that caused them to say it. However I can never say that they are “A dumb N(word)”! No matter how much I learn about the Cultural roots.
But on the other hand, one black comedian starts his show by having the audience yell out the N-word. And that is OK, since it is led by a black man, but white people can only yell out the N word, in that one instance.
And now the big B.O. is either the First Black President or the First African-American President. I have heard both terms, and I have heard black people complain about both terms saying that one is OK, but the other is Racist. Good Luck figuring out which is which!

Ive taken it upon myself to start calling everyone racial slurs.. Only I use slurs for different races than the one Im insulting.. I started doing this one day in traffic when this older Asian lady cut me off.. Both of our windows were down and I yelled nig*er at the top of my lungs.. The look of confusion on her face was priceless.. Of course, she was just being a ignorant dumbass and changed 4 lanes at once almost running me into the median, so my use of the slur was factually correct, even if it wasnt politically correct..
The guy is a Mutt
50% white
42% Arab descent
8% Black African
But remember, it isn't a racial/color issue
"We're all very different people.
We're not Watusi.
We're not Spartans.
We're Americans.
With a capital A, huh?
You know what that means?
Do you? That means that our forefathers were kicked out of every decent country in the world.
We are the wretched refuse.
We're the underdog.
We're mutts.
But there's no animal that's more faithful that's more loyal, more loveable than the mutt."

Once again, we are seeing the result of a weak-minded people allowing themselves to be controlled by the freedom-robbing virus known as political correctness.
PC, like terrorism, is fueled by people's weakness and their inability/unwillingness to think for themselves. People are more concerned with saying what they think other's find acceptable, rather than saying what they themselves truly believe. The people have allowed PC to replace not just honesty, but reality itself. PC is truly a phenomenon that Jim Jones would be proud of. As he said, "never underestimate the stupidity of the people"!
oh, I though he said SLUTS like me
