Ann Rommey calls voters, "you people"

[Riot]

"you people" ??? The arrogance and elitism. It's just sad.

If Obama talked to people like this, angry wingnut heads would explode.

Ann Romney defended her husband’s decision to not release any additional tax records during an interview on Thursday morning, saying that “we’ve given all you people need to know” about her family’s financial records.

The “you people” remark immediately sparked a outpouring of responses on Twitter, eventually leading the #YouPeople hashtag to become a U.S. trending topic.

Twitter users upset with Ann Romney’s comments generally fell into one of two categories: those that believe the Romney family should release tax records because of their extraordinary wealth, and those those took offense to the phrase “you people,” which has historically been used with an air of racism.

Others rushed to Ann Romney’s defense, arguing the family should not have to release any more financial records and refuting claims that the “you people” phrase was intended as a hurtful comment.

????????

"out of context" isn't what you are trying to say, if you link the above. Don't you mean, "she stumbled over her words"? That's not the same thing as "yes, she did say it, but other words go with it" That's not what the link you provided says.

Is English your first language?

Either is using words to mean something else entirely different than the word means, when talking politics. It's confusing and distracting.

Fact is not opinion nor belief, those three things are not interchangable; and out-of-context doesn't mean the person never said it, it means yes, the person did say it.

Or, "you people" meant the media.

So the President did say business people didn't build there businesses, someone else did?

You provided a very partial quote. Other words go with it is exactly what I meant. The link was provided to say take a step back it isn't such a big deal.
German is my first language, that is how I understand the way an economy is supposed to work, unlike the President.

The link you posted doesn't say that. It says she did not say it at all

Did you read the link before you posted it?

wow. I want my last 5 minutes back.

where is this world coming to that people get ragged on for saying two words together that fit into the context of the sentence.

next time she should say "you motherfucl<ers", since stupid people who take offense to everything are going to hate what she says no matter what.
