67. I am not surprised to hear that you use it all the time.
The point is that Obama does not use it all the time. That putting that speech in his mouth is not satirization or parody it is taking the most revulsive possible language and putting it in the mouth of a person who is particularly careful with his speech.

That some white people take on speech, dress or other attributes of hard core ghetto culture does not mean that those elements are not fundamentally understood by the population to be ghetto culture.
