John - while i agree with Ibbitson's comments (mostly) he is also presuming (wrongly?) that JT is bright enough to have even thought of coming clean prior to his leadership bid :) Sad the opposition needs this crap to make gains given the track record of JT.

Lol...all those years.. ooooo... I ,, personally have to come clean. After 67 years of shame,,,, I was 7 at the time,, I would walk down to Olson’s corner store and say... “”Mrs Olson,, can I have 5 cents worth of Nigger Babies please.”” There was no racism or foul talk in our little shack . My bet is in,, Trudeau will win in October. I think I was getting them 3 for a penny,, and she always through in a few extras :+) urbandictionary.com

Yes but I still do not get the offense... I understand that he should have come clean... considering his metaphoric Sir Galahad appropriation... OTOH.. especially with a couple more instances coming to light... the deliciousness of the irony is NOT lost on me ;) You know when kids pull their eyes into slits and call out ching ching Chinaman or non blacks use the N word.. I get it totally... OTOH it is completely lost on me why so many young black males think the N word has a kind of cachet when used amongst themselves.. as is dressing up in costume with appropriate makeup ... You know I also get it that Al Jolson's portrayal was offensive.. He made blacks look like caricatures... anyway I doubt this will make any significant sent in his numbers... Would be really surprised if it did.. Now if Sheer did it LOL
