So, I was complaining about White House Press Secretary Tony Snow's "tar baby" comment, when he said "What's wrong with that? It's not racist. He's talking about the Tar Baby. It's a character." When I reminded him that it's also a term used to poorly refer to someone black, he winced. Oh, and he's black.
Just goes to show that some people look at things differently. I just know that I've never used to the term.
