Whoopee expressed the fact that since she is a black person, she should be able to say the nigger word, but white people can't. Imagine if a white host said the things she said. It's deplorable. Lets get the discussion going. I myself felt disgusted just typing the word. Sorry if seeing it offends you, as it offends me. I guess it was only 3X. Initial reports I read said 6X. Maybe saying it 3X is better than 6X. I dont know.

Answered Whoopee should be able to use the nigger word
The context of the word is the important thing. Every time Whoopie used that word, she did so as a point of reference while making a point during that conversation.
btw, I think hell might have frozen over, because I actually agree with Sherie Shepard - I never thought I'd say that! -
Answered Blacks should be able to use the nigger word, not whites
As a Blackman this is some bullshit and we should be discussing more important issue like our economy, POVERTY, education, and last but not least our corrupted ass government. Who cares what these celebrities say no matter what they will still get to keep their money and after rehab they will be back to say the same shit again. We should be talking about how to impeaching the felon that is sitting in the White House as we speak. PS matty507 I already know that you are prejudice so why all the smoke and mirrors? Be a man if you don't like blacks stand on your two feet and say it instead of hiding behind a poll or blog.

Maybe not saying it at all would make you less disgusted, I'm just saying..... -
Answered Whoopee should be able to use the nigger word
When people stop calling Polish people - dumb Pollocks, Italians - Whaps, Indians - Rag heads, and all the other nationality slurs - then people will stop calling Blacks the N word.
I hate slurs and I hate the N word. -
Answered None of the above
I would have to see how it was used, but I don't like the damn word period in reference to something or not! I say the N word if I'm referring to it. I do agree with what Whoppi G. said and yes we as in blacks, still have to deal with racism in this society. Whoppi was showing examples, so the people who are claiming she needs to be fired for using the "N" word needs to quit playing with them selves. -
Answered None of the above
The N-word is a deplorable one indeed and it should be shunned by society as a very vile thing to be uttered regardless of the color of the persons skin. Whoopee should be harshly reprimanded for it, but I think that the only reason she did it was for publicity due to the whole jesse jackson thing. On the other hand though we got whitey, cracker, and honkey but none of these conjure up such a nasty image as does the n-word.

Goldberg is a member in good standing of the "liberal elite." She's trusted to speak anyway she see's fit because as an elitist she is far above racism. Incapable of it. Even if "masses of the great unwashed" were to rise up in loud protest, there would be nothing but silence from the left. The media, hollywood, air america, Pelosi,...nothing. There would be silence.




Answered Whoopee should be fired immediately
I thought our Constitution said that all men are created equal. If so, and IMUS was fired (though eventually back to work) for saying "nappy headed ho", then Whoopie should be -- She is no different -- Right? Oh, I forgot, there is a different standard for "those" people...... silly me. Oh, and by the way, if people did their homework on Imus, they would know how much good he has done for underprivileged people, including black children -- He is not a racist. He is a shock jock who made a joke -- No different than the rappers using the "N" word.
