Outrage over Obama and watermelon

[Paulie]

My President is black
My Maybach too
And I’ll be goddamned if my diamonds ain’t blue
My money’s dark green
And my Porsche is light grey
And I’m headed for DC, anybody feel me ?

My president is black...in fact, he’s half white
So even in a racist mind, he’s half right
Even if you’ve got a racist mind, it’s all right
My President is black, but his house is all white

 

[Andrew2382]

I like big butts and I can not lie
you other brothers can't deny
when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
and a round thin gin your face
you get
SPRUNG

 

[Paulie]

so ladies (YEAH?)
ladies (YEAH?)
you wanna roll in my mercedes?

Then turn around
Stick it out
even white boys gotta shout
BABY GOT BACK

Grose by name, gross by nature - what a fucking idiot he is

Mayor is criticized for White House watermelon patch e-mail
Businesswoman receives e-mail with image showing watermelon patch in front of White House.

LOS ALAMITOS - The mayor has sent an apology for an e-mail sent to a local businesswoman and community volunteer that she says is racist and offensive.

Keyanus Price, an African American, said she was appalled when she received an e-mail from Mayor Dean Grose's personal account that showed a picture of the White House with a watermelon patch imposed as the White House garden.

"I was horrified when I read that e-mail," Price said. "What I'm concerned about is how can this person send an e-mail out like this and think it is OK?"

Being a public official, Price said, made the matter worse.

"He's putting the city into a bad place, and he is a liability," Price wrote in an e-mail.

Grose sent an e-mail apology to Price, her boss and the City Council saying he did not intend to be offensive. He also called and left Price a message, he said.

"It was just poor judgment on my part, and I am deeply sorry," he said. "It wasn't meant to hurt her."

The council received the e-mail from Price's boss and also received a copy of the apology. Councilman Ken Stephens said he didn't receive the original e-mail.

"Being totally out of the loop on this one, I think I would be speaking out of turn if I said anything about it," he said. "I would think that anything like that at all would be inappropriate but, again, I haven't seen the e-mail." Calls to the other three Los Alamitos council members were not returned.

Price said she wanted a public apology for the e-mail and today contacted The Orange County Register to share the brief exchange that took place on Sunday.

Grose's e-mail included the picture with a heading that read, "No Easter Egg hunt this year."

"I think he's saying that since there's a black president, there will be no need to hunt for eggs since they're growing watermelons in the front yard this year," Price wrote.

She responded to the e-mail with: "Hey, that's not nice at all. Not all black people like watermelon… you should know better than that."

Grose replied: "The way things are today, you gotta laugh every now and then. I wanna see the coloring contests."

Price said Grose's response upset her more.

"As soon as I saw his response; that put me over the top because it was no big deal to him," she said.

Price and Grose have worked together in the past – they both sit on the board of the Youth Center, and she often works with city officials in the community representing her employer. The two have exchanged e-mails in the past.

The e-mail was sent to at least one other person, but the mayor said he isn't sure how many people received it. He said there is a "small group" of people he sometimes forward e-mails to.

In his apology to Price via e-mail, Grose wrote that he was not representing himself as a public official.

"It was not sent to a whole bunch of people, and it went through my personal e-mail," he said. "People e-mail things all the time, but that's not an excuse."

Peter Eliasberg of the ACLU said that while the mayor wasn't acting as a city official at the time, it doesn't mean that it was OK to send.

"Even though as much as we may always think they're always public officials, they're not always public officials; it's kind of going out as a private citizen," Eliasberg said. "That doesn't mean that she doesn't have every right to demand a public apology. It seems like it was pretty offensive."

WTF???????? Is everyone going to become racist pricks now? How in the fuck can the Repugnicans think this is funny?

I guess it's the rantings and influence of Limbidiot.

 

[auditor0007]

oh! and just to add, after what the left did to Palin and her family,, I'm not too fucking impressed with yer outrage..

Knocking Palin for being a bad mother and raising a fucking slut as a daughter is completely different than making racial stereotypes. If this disaster of a woman was to become our President, how would she manage the country if she can't manage her own family?

Ah, here we go; now all single women who engage in sexual activity are sluts. For guys though, it's okay.

 

[twogreen2c]

Oh nooooo here we go again. Where's Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton? Forget about the economy; forget about Obama's joke of a budget; we gotta go after this Mayor and call for his resignation. This is big news.

Oh but raising children in a racist church is ok, right?

Obama did. I have never seen a church more racist than obama's church.

Really? Ever been to a church in the South? How about Fred Phelps' church?

White House Watermelon Email From California Mayor Dean Grose Inspires Outrage

The mayor of Los Alamitos is coming under fire for an e-mail he sent out that depicts the White House lawn planted with watermelons, under the title "No Easter egg hunt this year."


Local businesswoman and city volunteer Keyanus Price, who is black, said Tuesday she received the e-mail from Mayor Dean Grose's personal account on Sunday and wants a public apology.


"I have had plenty of my share of chicken and watermelon and all those kinds of jokes," Price told The Associated Press. "I honestly don't even understand where he was coming from, sending this to me. As a black person receiving something like this from the city-freakin'-mayor - come on."


The Orange County Register first reported the e-mail on its Web site Tuesday night.Grose confirmed to the AP that he sent the e-mail to Price and said he didn't mean to offend her. He said he was unaware of the racial stereotype that black people like watermelons.


He said he and Price are friends and serve together on a community youth board.


"Bottom line is, we laugh at things and I didn't see this in the same light that she did," Grose told the AP. "I'm sorry. It wasn't sent to offend her personally - or anyone - from the standpoint of the African-American race."


Grose, who became mayor in December, said he sent an apology e-mail to Price and her boss and also left her a voicemail apology.
Regardless, Price said it will be difficult for the two to work together.
"Now I am like - wow, is this really how he feels?" Price said.
Los Alamitos is a 2¼-square-mile Orange County city of around 12,000 people. The mayor is elected by fellow members of the five-seat City Council.

How is this at all racist? The watermelons represent the ECONOMY! You are just race baiting!

But I don't because she's fat (OH!)

And if it meant all the not-whites in the world would vanish

And she's probably really hungry
Hungrier than your whole fucking family at a barbeque in Compton
With Kool-Aid, fried chicken (fried chicken?), and watermelon (and watermelon?)
BIATCH! Shiet.

Hopefully you're not fat
Yo yo yo, fat chicks need love too
Check it, check it, yo aight?!
Yo, I like fat chicks

To stick my piece where the hole is the size of Africa and full of yeast
They fat girls, they love to eat
If I throw them a Reeses then they all fall to pieces
And immediately suck on my piece
Fat girls need loving too, hey!
Yo Boost, everybody's talking about like how fat girls need love,
And like, barbeques
But like, what I wanna know is

That was pretty damn stupid.

That being said, anyone who tried to stipulate stupidity and racism as only belonging to a few examples of the Republican Party are being terribly selective in their outrage.

Lest we forget, our current President spent 20 years as a member of a racist Black theology church.

Examples of poor judgement are aplenty in both parties...

I think white people eat watermelon too. In fact, we have increased our intake because it is a very good source of minerals & extremely low in calories.

What's the big deal. Not every cartoon or statement about President Obama is going to associated with racism.

If you're POTUS you're going to have zillions of statements & cartoons depicting yourself. GET OVER IT, O.K.!

I am saying it is ok for a rapper/black/minority to use and refer to racial slurs, stereotypes etc whenever they choose and collect, but let a white person try it and its racist. BullShit!

Actually..............I'm a white boy, and I LIKE WATERMELON!!!!!!!

Spitting out the seeds, and seeing if you can make 'em stick on something is really fun.

Besides........and this is for all you guys.........did ya know that watermelon pickles (made from the rind of the watermelon, which most people throw away), makes a really good substitute for Viagra?

And.........it doesn't give you an erection that stays with you either. No doctor required.

Who says she doesn't manage her own family? Somebody died and made you judge of which families are managed and which aren't?

Sara Palin was running as VP. Her daughter was not. End of story.

I like watermelon. I still think the cartoon is racist.

Still, I'm getting sick of chickenshits yelling racist at the the drop of every hat and have been doing so since the primaries began last year.

 

[Avatar4321]

It's also pretty not cool for yet another republican to do something stupid and racist. You can put all the bobby jindal's you want to in front of the camera, but if the rank and file are this stupid, the repubs are sooooooooooooooo finished.

it's also not very credible that he didn't know the racist nature of the email... after all, it's not even funny to racists without the knowledge of the watermelon stereotype.

so he's a liar on top of being a racist jerk.

Yet its perfectly alright for all the Democrats to be racist and be elected to high offices of power. Nothing wrong with them because they have a D next to their name.

 

[DiveCon]

um, i might have missed it, but where does it say this moron is a republican?
