you know, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson should go on the road to educate stupid white people!! At least if they did, the excuse 'I didn't know' wouldn't work anymore!
Wasn't that also the excuse the NY Post used?

"I honestly don't even understand where he was coming from, sending this to me. As a black person receiving something like this from the city-freakin'-mayor - come on." "Bottom line is, we laugh at things and I didn't see this in the same light that she did," Grose said. "I'm sorry. It wasn't sent to offend her personally - or anyone - from the standpoint of the African-American race." "Now I am like - wow, is this really how he feels?" said Price.

Greg Dempsey http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SECULARHUMANIST Obama - A New Beginning ==== White House Watermelon Email From California Mayor Dean Grose Inspires Outrage AP | February 25, 2009 03:30 Local businesswoman and city volunteer Keyanus Price, who is black, said Tuesday she received the e-mail from Mayor Dean Grose's personal account on Sunday and wants a public apology. The Orange County Register first reported the e-mail on its Web site Tuesday night. Grose confirmed to the AP that he sent the e-mail to Price and said he didn't mean to offend her. He said he was unaware of the racial stereotype that black people like watermelons. He said he and Price are friends and serve together on a community youth board. Grose, who became mayor in December, said he sent an apology e-mail to Price and her boss and also left her a voicemail apology. Regardless, Price said it will be difficult for the two to work together. Los Alamitos is a 2ΒΌ-square-mile Orange County city of around 12,000 people. The mayor is elected by fellow members of the five-seat City Council. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "WebTV Dawgs/Dittos" group.
