We had this discussion when he made that comment. AFAIR, the general consensus was that he did not mean it in any racist way.

Well..we had a dicussion on 'YOU LIE' and determined it was not racist. Certainly less credibility of being racists as compared to 'This black boy.' That is what makes this so incredibility stupid.

So its OK to call a black man 'boy'? Try that in your nieghborhood and see where that gets you?

“BOY” is not a term of affection, but a term of referring to a black male. The term became so offensive, that black jazz artists started referring to themselves as “MAN”. Thus the much used term MAN.

Your analysis is some of the worst I've seen on this matter. It's utter nonsense really. The fact is, alot worse has been said about the previous President. And worse comparisons made. Even though I think comparing different Presidents to Germany's Hitler is not exactly appropriate, it's safe to say Obama is overreaching in many areas, and is attempting unnecessary fundamental changes not compatible with freedom or prosperity. More like mass government dependancy and welfare.

And it doesn't help with the people he's surrounded himself with. Communists (Van Jones), outright racists (Wright) and leftwing loonies (ala Cass Sunstein). It's the policy and people within ultimately that people are ticked off with. Your opinion on it is merely a diversion....and just outright nonsense.

This analysis is just crap. Yeah, I would be okay with these hideous Democrat policies if they were coming from a white man.

Get real dude.

I know for a fact that in the Navy you CAN NOT call a black man "boy" or "son" because it is classified as being racist. And as for the "You lie!" outburst, he just said what we all knew anyways. Politicians lie, nothing new. As for Jimmy, I wonder what made Rickover decide that this guy could operate a nuclear reactor?

He didn't quite get there..............

When Admiral Hyman G. Rickover (then a captain) started his program to create nuclear powered submarines, Carter wanted to join the program and was interviewed by Rickover. On 1 June 1952, Carter was promoted to Lieutenant. Selected by Rickover, Carter was detached on 16 October 1952 from K-1 for duty with the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission, Division of Reactor Development in Schenectady, New York. From 3 November 1952 to 1 March 1953, he served on temporary duty with the Naval Reactors Branch, U. S. Atomic Energy Commission, Washington, DC to assist "in the design and development of nuclear propulsion plants for naval vessels."

From 1 March to 8 October, Carter was preparing to become the engineering officer for the nuclear power plant to be placed in USS Seawolf (SSN 575), one of the first submarines to operate on atomic power. He assisted in setting up training for the enlisted men who would serve on Seawolf. During this time his father became very sick and died in July 1953. After his father's death in 1953, Carter resigned from the Navy to return to Georgia to manage the family interests. Carter was honorably discharged on 9 October 1953 at Headquarters, Third Naval District in New York City. On 7 December 1961, he transferred to the retired reserve with the rank of Lieutenant at his own request.

Most folks in the know respect Rickover. Can the same be said for Carter? I think not. And his recent use of the word 'boy' in reference to Mr. Obama, and calling disagreement with Mr. Obama's policies racist are by any standard anathima.

I would like to set out that it is a tactic first used by this administration during the Dr. Gates issue.
