To Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-NY), "white cracker" isn't derogatory -- it's a "term of endearment."
The longtime congressman ruffled some feathers last year when he told the Daily Beast that members of the tea party were the same group of "white crackers" who tried to fight desegregation in the South during the Civil Rights movement.
In a Monday interview with HuffPost Live, Rangel expressed surprise that those comments received backlash.
"I thought that was a term of endearment, you know," Rangel said. "[The tea party is] so proud of their heritage and all the things they believe in."

What a coincidence! I use the "N-word" as a term of endearment!
Prediction: After two more years of Obama, we will no longer have to say "N-word." It will become socially acceptable to say the complete word. And even shout it, if you wish!

I don’t care what Rangel calls me for the same reason that I don’t worry about what my dog sees me doing. They’re both just dogs.

The Ranglecretin cannot think.
Not now.
Not then.
Not ever.
If possible, he is the one person whose intelligence is below the Pelosi-thing and even the Obamadork.

It is - it endears his followers to him whenever he says it.

I grew up in a cracker house in N. florida. To some it might be a slur, but not for me.

Yeah, somehow, anti-white racial “slurs” just aren’t offensive to me.
