John McDumbAsaRock might not have “got it” but I sure did.

When a “model minority” speaks, well, they are to be respected (in this case) and their difference in worldview considered legitimate. And the MSM, the instigator of Obama-Wright and then Obama-Pfleger and then Obama-Trinity, definitely didn’t cover the story, even one side of it, the way it came out in the Q&A:

Oh, really?

As for not getting the joke, I’m glad he didn’t. The mocker is the one to be slapped.

I totally believe it was to mock Michelle.

This is the man who smiled, and said nothing when asked, ‘ What are we going to do about that bitch?’ (Hillpatine)

If he got it, he would have given one of those smartass remarks like his Pill Poppin’ Piece-On-The-Side did when this ‘ scandal’ first came out.
