Far From A Macaca Moment

We know we're about 37 zillion news cycles behind on this one, but the press is still talking about Mitt Romney jive talking with some real live African American voters at a MLK Day parade on Monday.

Specifically, Mitt's use of the term "Who let the dogs out, woof, woof" and "bling bling".

And then compare it to this:



Mitt's comments don't have the same racist and nasty and bullying undertone that George Allen's Macaca comment does.

In other words, just because Mitt is ignorant doesn't make him a racist.

It just makes him ignorant.

We're just saying.
