What an arrogant, condescending elitist this man is. You only have to peel away one layer to find out what kind of a person this is. God help us all if he becomes president.

Argh…synonymous with SEXIST! Doy! ‘White person’ is synonymous with racist…and it’s not even Friday!

I’d be in jail right now if it were a crime to call women of every age or race ‘Sweetie’. Maybe it’s ok because I’m not a man, (synonymous with racist). ‘Knee-jerk’ and ’seeeensitive’ don’t cover the level of insanity that has been reached here.

Obama Goes from “Bitter” to “Sweetie.” Apologizes….

What’s in a word? Plenty, Barack Obama has learned in this campaign. Don’t call Pennsylvania voters “bitter” and don’t call female reporters “sweetie.” Dare we say it’s been a bittersweet lesson?

Signs of snobbery and elitism. Obviously, the Wronged Rev. Wright taught him well.

The bottom line-using his middle name Hussein is now fair game.

Not now Hussein. Why do you support Hammas Hussein? How will you fight terrorism on Pennsylvania Ave Hussein? Does Michell know you really prefer white females Hussein?

Barack Obama has a “bad habit” of addressing “all kinds of people” as “Sweetie” in casual conversation, although he’s trying to quit.

If I call a female “sweetie”, it’ll either be my wife, daughter, or a girl younger than my daughter.

I can’t see anyone calling a guy “sweetie”…?

Maybe he just mistook the reporter for one that was on his plane earlier, ogling his package.

BO ought to apologize to his wife, since he has a “habit” of calling women “sweetie”. Michelle will probably clobber him with a skillet one of these days. I hope he’s not President by then, or the Secret Service with arrest her.

I noticed you can listen to the apology. Is this so we can all know what a great and humble guy he is?
