Romney "Who Let the Dogs Out" to African-Americans

January 23, 2008 by Orlando  
Filed under News and Opinion

Mitt Romney is in Flordia on MLK day was trying to relate to the African-America population so he said, “Who let the dogs out” as a form of saying cheese while surrounded by African American youth. He then asks a cute little beauty queen how she got those white gloves. He then points to a baby with a little necklace on and calls it his “Bling Bling.”

I’m not sure how the press will respond to this, if at all.  Nonetheless, it could be seen as being insensitive within the African-American community. No doubt, he meant no harm but there does tend to be a sense of hyper-sensitivity when it comes to race among African-Americans.

    What is up with the videos of Romney saying “who let the dogs out” to black kids? Also… the video of Ron Paul being blasted by some idiot FAUX news puppet isn’t available.

    Please Fix it ASAP.

    I’m confused, D.A…do you want to watch the video, or not?!

    Anyway, LiveLeak video was working in Firefox earlier, but I’ve done a work-around so that it now works in IE as well. You’re welcome.

This comment section is for the readers of Ft. Hard Knox, a place for political conservatives to share information about online activism. We are not "fair and balanced," and we aren't refereeing a "free speech zone." Intelligent, funny, and on-topic comments are welcome. Trolls, spam, and liberal propaganda are not. We may occassionally approve a comment with an obvious lefty-slant so that we can amuse ourselves by making fun of it, but most will be deleted. (Why? Because we're busy, we have lives, and when we want to talk to you we'll go visit you on Digg or the Daily KOS.)

This is a private blog, and we reserve the right to make up our own rules as we go along. The few comments which manage to squeak by our censors reflect the opinion of the commentator, and not necessarily the staff of Ft. Hard Knox.

Hint: One sure-fire way to get your comment sent directly to the "spam" folder is to call us "racists" for disagreeing with a policy of the current POTUS or speaking out against terrorism.
