OBAMA: Talk about offensive

| May 8, 2016 9:00 PM

Let me get this straight: The president was offended by Queen Elizabeth’s great-grandson wearing pajamas and a robe when meeting the president, but was NOT offended by the comedian Larry Wilmore’s use of a racial slur, who concluded his remarks noting progress on race and that a black man was president by saying, “Yo Barry, you did it my n…, you did it.” The president commenting that he appreciated the spirit of racial progress the comedian was trying to convey. Spirit of racial progress, by using the N-word?
