Maria Menounos from Access Hollywood interviewed Lindsay Lohan about the election, her leggings and prop 8. At the beginning of the interview, Maria asked Lindsay what election night meant for her because she was a big Obama supporter. I’m not too sure, but it seemed like Lindsay, elated, mumbled, “It was really exciting…. It’s our first colored president!”
I agree with Lindsay. Having a colored president is exciting. Every time I go out, I say to people in disbelief, “Isn’t it exciting? Our first colored president!” More often than not, I get weird looks and on rare occasions, I get punched in the face. Republicans sure are bitter.
I dont get what is wrong with calling him a “colored”? I mean isnt that we call em? Would she rather called him something else? OH the possibliites.
Obama called himself a “mutt”, whats the big deal?
Its not exactly “PC”. And its not the 1950’s.
The big deal is that the word colored was used back when African Americans were slaves. Who doesnt know that saying “colored is considered derogatory?Duh!I guess we can tell who’s educated.And what do you mean “isnt that what we call em”? What the hell is a “em”?You just called African Americans em like they are some type of species.People are racist these days and dont even know it.Obama can call hiself a mutt or colored but Lindsay cant
Well, I guess I am not old enough to know that calling black folks “colored” is offensive to “them”. Lol Unfortunatly we live in times when us white folks dont know what to call them colors except blacks? I have a problem calling them african americans. Cuz that just sounds stupid, and I would recken “they” dont like it either. Really, from the way I see it, us whiteys brought those negros here from Africa, and if they dont like it, I really think they should do like them mexicans and take thier money and GO BACK TO AFRICA! That… Read more »
That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard considering most black people are Americans.
Can anyone say exactly what an “american” is? I mean we all come from different places. Irish, Italian, African, whatever. If “they” dont want to be called anything that is offensive, then they should make a fu*king list of s**t we can and cant say about them. Give me a break.
You all wrong this is a revision of history. Blacks asked to be called colored because they did not like the N word. So it was done. Later they asked to be called Black so that was done. Lately they asked to be called African Americans but its to late America is fed up that they want to change the name of the race every 20 years or so.
It was never a derogatory term. My god can you imagine a raciest calling a black a colored instead of the N word. This shows a profound ignorance of history.

Kim, I don’t agree with a few points. There are many people who don’t know using the word “colored” is derogatory. For me, the safe term is “person of color”, but I wonder if that is derogatory too? No wait, I was instructed that is the term to use in my companies diversity class taugh by a “person of color”. Therefore, it must be ok. My point is, I don’t see the difference between calling someone “a person of color” or “colored person”. Some may say I’m showing my ignorance, and maybe I am, but I was thrilled when we… Read more »
Pay no attention to Brandi….shes just some suburban 16 year old white girl who thinks she can mouth off as much as she wants…..but one day shes gonna run that big mouth at the wrong time and shes going to get the s**t beaten out of her. I’ve seen it happen many a time and its funny to see the revelation they make afterwards…..Oh and Brandi, if anyone should leave America it should be the descendants of the lazy fat ass farmers who couldn’t do their own damn labor or wise up and turn to big industries like the North… Read more »
Seems all you politically correct campus dip s**ts have you’re intestines all tied into knots over the word “colored”. She could have and should have said our first jiggaboo president.
