Honduran Official Apologizes To Obama For Remark
TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras (AP) — The foreign relations minister in Honduras’ interim government says he has sent a letter to Barack Obama apologizing for a comment he made about the U.S. president.
 |
Enrique Ortez says the letter expresses “his most profound apologies” for “an unfortunate comment.”
In a TV interview, Ortez said Obama “is a little black man who doesn’t know where Tegucigalpa is located.”
Ortez says the remark, made before he was named to the post, was not meant to offend anyone.
“I really didn’t mean to imply that Obama was a man,” said Ortez. “But keep in mind that this was said before the frumpy mom-jeans and the girly pitch at the All-Star game. I offer my most profound apologies to the little black woman for my unfortunate comment. I promise never again to insinuate that she pees standing up.”
Ortez also read a statement in Spanish from U.S. Ambassador Hugo Llorens that said: “I express my profound indignation for the unfortunate, disrespectful and gender-insensitive comments made about President Barack Obama, the first little black woman elected to America’s highest office.”

A Honduran official insulted Girlypants McSissythrow?
By the way, I love Tegucigalpa. I used to order a side dish every time I ate at Chi-Chi’s.

Ortez was also overheard to say, “She could use a little work on her chest, though.”

Present hussein throws like a real white sox pitcher. Notice the pansy democrat slap stance. Did jojo just stooup him on the mound?
I think women should be insulted by having that one compared to them. What a disgrace.

But if you factor in MichelleO, the seated pee/standing pee ratio in the Obama household averages out close to normal.

Yep, its rascist to tell the truth about American negroes. Wait…. that is only if a white man says it. What if a non-American hispanic says it? If its true is it still just bad taste. Wait…. what if a one legged African, transexual says it??? The Negro party has a lot of work to do to tell us what is rascist and what is not!

Bob, it’s racist for you to ponder about what is racist and what isn’t. Unless you aren’t white, then you can think about and use racism all the day long. Then, it would also be racist for you to accuse someone of being racist against you, since you know…you’re a whitey.

Bob A If you think ANY race should be considered over another simply because of race — you are a racist. If you think ANY race should have special privileges –you are a racist. If you judge people by any means other than their actions –you might be a racist ——or a bigot. If you say Barack Obama is a stupid monkey —that is NOT racist, it is an opinion based on observation! I am not a member of the negro party but I hope this helps.

I take exception to the duly elected government of Honduras being characterized as an interm government. Mr. Girlypants McSissythrow Soetero and Secretary of State Unindicted Co-conspiritor may say the present Honduran government is not legitimate, but, it is. To give credence to that notion it is not belies reality. The present situation is preceding according to post banana republic Honduran law

Poor Barry Hussein. That baseball toss took so much out of his little arm that he couldn’t crochet for a week.

No wonder he can’t get any respect. He throws like a girlie armed Palestinian.

Quick update of phrases that need to be used as often as possible:
“musket to the junk”
“Girlypants McSissythrow”
“Present Hussein”
“barking moonbat”
“President Palin”

With everything going on in Honduras should they really have to worry about the feelings of a guy that wants to force a thieving wanna be dictator on them?
