obama said "she is a typical white person"

The point is Obama first spoke a few years ago about his WHITE grandmother: " she used to N-Word and made several racist comments throughout my life and quite often I felt uncomfortable." Later, after deciding to run for pres. he was questioned about this: " He said I never meant direspect to my grandmother or talk negative about her, But she is just a typical WHITE PERSON"
Now this is what I'm thinking: what if john mccain was speaking about jesse jackson, {just a random BLACK man you aren't african-american unless you are from africa or one of your parents are!!!!!!! U R BLACK I am WHITE!!!!!!} ang said " Oh he's just a typical black person.."
WHY SHOULD THIS BE ANY DIFFERENT

But it is, you know people would have mccain out of the race saying america has come too far for racists to run as president.. I do agree with that statement. Obama made a comment that was offensive to me. A typical white person? i guess we all think and act alike... But is it the same for black people too? I don't think so, Grow some balls Hussein Obama and say i should have not said that. But no, its that double standard race card. i dont play that way anything i say about BLACK people around WHITES, I'll say to any of their faces, because I am not a racist at all..

anyone care to help me understand why the stuff Barrack Hussein Osama said was ok?

who said it was ok?

Mcain isn't half black, Obama is half white.

Thats like I'd be able to say my mums a steriotypical Scot in a negative way, but an English person in my position wouldn't be allowed to say the same.

well, it is ok for a black person to say 'typical white person'.
it is not ok for a white person to say 'typical black man'.
c'mon, everyone knows why.
double standard.
the white folk do not wanna step on toes of the black folk.
the black folk dont care whose toes they step on, and they get away with such flagrant racism everyday.
most white folk do it behind closed doors, whilst most black folk do it out in open, because they want the confrontation and they want to start a race roit.
i was raised in the city, and made many black friends. i have been caled whitey, white girl, cracker you name it.
do i tolerate it? hell no! i aint no chicken s***!
but most of the white folk would just cower because they are afraid.

What Mr.Barack Obama said was WRONG in my eyes...very wrong, however..can't you find a way to forgive him for the mistake and let that be it??? I don't think he is a racist because he made one stupid comment...read your own post...you said "black folks do it in the open, because they want a confrontation and they want to start a race roit." Where did you get that from...and are you speaking on behalf of ALL black folks? That's just crazy to think blacks are like that...you are doing the same thing that Mr.Barack Obama did...and it said he was sorry....you say alot of crazy stuff in your post about white folks and such...speak for yourself...i'am sure you don't speak for the entire race of white folks...the man made a mistake...forgive him and get on with it....stop speaking your views as if they were everyone's.... oh and just for the record..this country has had a few racist presidents...

source please, otherwise I take the OP as not happening.
