The Associated Press is being accused of racism for a transcript of President Obama's speech to the Congressional Black Caucus because the g's were dropped. Ana Kasparian, Ben Mankiewicz and Michael Shure discuss.

1. Doesn't bother me.

I wouldn't call that racist. If he hadn't spoken that way, it might be. But he did. No biggie. The g's are not the problem. I didn't care much for his lecturing the CBC. He's not big into listening but he does love to lecture.

2. His speech was very well received by the CBC. Watch the video, don't believe the spin

by AP and some DU'ers. Rachel Maddow did a piece on the actual enthusiastic reaction of the crowd versus the bizarre AP Yahoo news negative spin.

3. When will AP drop the g's from Perry's remarks?

Or transcribe his pronunciation of "nuclear" as "nucular"? When they do that, I'll believe there wasn't an agenda behind it.

Oh, and I like watching a table of white people determining what is and isn't racist.
