    Implying that I said "great success" is a lie.

    More on point, is who the hell do you think you are to speak for the men George Romney marched with, especially when it's done to chastise others who are no doubt more in touch with the issues addressed by civil rights.

    Even if you say it that way, without the "r", it's still considered a faux pas. I'm making the assumption you're white here, saying it like a joke. Either way ppl obviously got offended, so why not just use a different slang term altogether- brotha, home boy, or "g" etc. instead? Something that still sounds funny but that both white people and black people can say, and that's not even close to the n-word. Because whether one actually pronounced it "..ggA" or "..ggER" is not an argument you ever want to get into in mixed company. Trust me, neither version is good.

    Regarding the actual topic, understand that not every black person even voted for Obama in the first place. I see no reason to worry about that now. It boilsdown to the issues & the candidate's stance on the issues you like. Everyone can think for themselves.

    FWIW, IIRC, Cheetah is black. I'm pretty sure I met him at the Toyota Center.

    So you're saying that because he's black (which I'm not even that sure about....I think you're referring to Krosfyah who is like half black) that makes it alright?

    That doesn't make it right!

    No one should use that kind of language in my opinion.

    I didn't make any comment about that, I was answering the poster who questioned Cheetah's race. And no, I know EXACTLY who krosfyah is, we met before the first year's Red Rowdies tryouts to discuss tactics and then were on the squad for 1.5 years together.

    Are you really that bad at reading?

    I didn't imply anything, any inference you gleaned was out of your head exclusively.
