Real funny - coming from a guy who seeks to "transcend race" and wants to be the 44th President of the United States.
Here's the complete quote:
"You know, there's pretty good basketball in Hawaii, but the only thing is, since, obviously, there are a lot of folks from Asian ancestry in Hawaii, uh, generally, the teams aren't as tall."
Disgraceful.

I'm sure if John McCain had cracked a joke that stereotyped African-Americans, he wouldn't be called out for it, right?
:rolleyes:

Are you really gonna try this one? How we forget how much he hates the gooks so quickly
Snoopyrules
...and he'll still be president; go figure.

kind of off topic, but isn't it ironic that the two tallest players in basketball are asian?

Are you seriously going to compare what McCain said - a flippant remark made about the specific people who imprisoned and tortured him for over 5 years - compared to Obama's sweeping indictment of a whole race of people?
Sorry, but your deflection doesn't even hold water.
As Zimmie correctly noted, yet another generalization of Obama's in the vein of "typical (fill in race) people."

I guess, but in Obama's world "typical" white people fear black people and "typical" people of Asian-decent are short.
The election season still has 5 months to go, so Obama has plenty of time to stereotype every race.

Republican Senator George Murphy of California - from wiki:
"George Murphy was the subject of a song by satirist Tom Lehrer celebrating his appointment in which Lehrer declared in mock vaudeville style: "Oh, gee it's great, at last we've got a senator who can really sing and dance." Lehrer also alluded sarcastically to an infamous remark Murphy once made during a debate about the bracero program that granted temporary work visas to Mexican migrant farmhands:
Should Americans pick crops?
George says no;
'Cuz no one but a Mexican would stoop so low.
And after all, even in Egypt, the Pharaohs
Had to import—Hebrew braceros.
Murphy had stated that Mexicans were genetically suited to farm labor; because they were "built lower to the ground", it was supposedly "easier for them to stoop". Oddly, some years earlier, in 1949, Murphy himself had starred next to Mexican actor Ricardo Montalban in the film Border Incident, which cast the exploitation of the braceros in a negative light.

Great point, it's incomprable. John McCain might actually hate Asians, thanks Vacate.

Or maybe he lived in Hawaii as well. Which was the statement he made was regarding. You're really that disjointed from reality, aren't you?
jetdog
Ah yes, the typical, daily Rethug circle jerk of ineptitude and idiocy. Amazing. I saw him say this on Kimmel, he was joking along with Jimmy about posting up the Asian guys he used to play with. I am sure they used to joke about it when they played. Douchebags.

Quick, get your fainting couches, cunts. :rolleyes:
You whiny bitches are SWOONING. Unfuckingreal. Asian people are generally short and horrific drivers too. Suck on that.

Asians are generally shorter. I think Chinese and Japanese average around 5'5" - 5'6", and Vietnamese are smaller.
Guys like Yao Ming are a freak of nature, no matter what your ethnic background.
So Obama's statement was fact.
Marinolaw
they also have teenie weenie penises, smaller than even Latins
Marinolaw
oh, and if this is all they got, get over it
FulSoldierEfect
Here is the test to find out if it is racist...Go up to an Asian guy and say Asians are generally short. See what he says.
My prediction: "Yea, and?"

I've had a friend of Japanese ancenstry for over 10 years. I periodically rip him for how he drives, and his ethnic groups inability to drive well. He usually shrugs and laughs and says "I know".
jetdog
This was a joke on Jimmy Kimmel, get over it. He was joking back and forth with Jimmy for fucks sake. It was fairly funny. End of thread.

LOL, you guys have way too much time on your hands...
Weak ass attempt VTW. Not that it is a deviation from your usual hot trash.
Blacks = good at sports
Asians = small and good at math
Whites = good businessmen
Gays = good dressers
Mexicans = good workers
Arabs = good businessmen... hmm....
These are all generalizations and while certainly none of them apply to all in that group, it would be stupid to ignore them.
DUDE-HERE
he meant no harm and was trying to get laughs but it fell flat..no harm but it is racist but what can you expect from someone who has an extra bone in his ankle

So by this standard it is racist to say that people of European ancestry generally have white skin? :bigthink:
its-just-a-ride
Chinese people generally have black hair... racist?

Quote: Originally posted by Jack Shit So by this standard it is racist to say that people of European ancestry generally have white skin? :bigthink:
NO
BUT IT WOULD BE TO SAY PEOPLE OF EUROPEAN ANCESTRY WHO ARE GENERALLY WHITE CAN'T PLAY BASKETBALL SO IT MAKES IT EASY FOR ME TO DUNK ON THEM

FAUX INDIGNATION. You guys keep grasping and the prize just gets farther away.
Go prop up your tired old beaten candidate and give him a B12 shot so he at least has the strength to shake his dick dry after he pees.
