This week has been a week of "your sins will find you out" for the chief cook. I think we all will agree that using the N word is politically incorrect as well as other descriptions we could use. However, it is a word that we all have probably used in our past. I know blacks use it all the time to refer to each other. It is used in rap music as a lyric. That seem to be OK as we hear it in the music and videos. Nothing is ever said about that. Seems we have a double standard. The word should never be used by anyone.
Paula Deen, to my surprise, is a big Obama supporter. Campaigned with and for him and is friends with Michelle. She apparently is foul mouthed if her employees are to be believed. Just not the sterotyped "Southern Lady" she portrays. I just did not know these things about her. I need to get out more.
I still like butter and sugar.

Well i really dont care about this story but I feel I need to correct something that has been repeated over and over.
"people use that word in rap songs all the time"
The context in which that is said and what she said 30 years ago are totally different.
One is 5 letters and one is 6 letters. I could say the first word to many old friends and it would not bother anyone. It does not hold the same meaning as the other word.
I am not defending anyone because I dont care and I really dont understand why people are making a issue over a 30 year old comment.
They didnt care Robert Byrd was a kkk member...... media bias

According to Wikipedia, The NAACP condemns the usage of both words as offensive. Just saying.

Who would really care or give a flip what the NAACP does. I know that the NAACP views are not the views of all black people and not all black people are or act as idiots as many of their so leaders does. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I don't consider them as authorities on any thing but trouble making.

Yes but they have a agenda and are not in touch with the real community.

One love, I'm not trying to start a fight. However, given the quote (the part in red), how would you and/or your friends react to someone being referred to as "niggardly?" Your immediate response first, then after you look it up your view on the word, please.
