Never Politically Correct! And Pointing Out Morons of Mass Destruction!

Obama, "Sweetie"?

Now, I'm  gonna get in trouble for saying this, but I hate the fact that people feel everybody needs to be politically correct at all times.  Here is what some people are upset with Obama for:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Juy9NwI8_i0

As Author and sales guru Jefrey Gitomer once said to a woman at a presentation I attended, "Do you mind if I call you sweetie?"  She said "No".  Gitomer said "Good, because some chicks don't like it when you call them sweetie". 

Politicians really need to watch the words they use.  Because they will most certainly be used against them in the court of public opinion.

I don't see anything wrong with what he said, but my vote only counts once.  Twice, if I live in Milwaukee and vote democrat.

If sweetie is the worst thing thats cool with me. Its not like he said  “I hate the gooks,” “I will hate them as long as I live.”

I posted this same item on one of my Obama blogs.  Imagine for one moment if John McCain had uttered those words (as well as avoiding answering the question about what he would do to help the autoworkers keep their jobs....).  He'd have been labeled a "dirty old man"...The uproar from the media would have been tremendous.
