Conservatives: How often do you...?

Use the term "shuck and jive" to refer to the actions of white people?

Update:

Justgetitright--Speaking of getting it right, Clinton was acquitted in the Senate while technically "impeached".

    Liberal trolls...how often do you desperately "find" racism where none exists?

  • 9 years ago

    Liberals think that it is a term used exclusively against blacks. This is not true, it is easily applicable to anyone that tries to lie his way out of a situation. We can't help it if liberals do not have a very deep vocabulary. I know you fools don't understand what the term means so allow me to tell you.

    Shuckin' and jivin' (or shucking and jiving) is an American slang term for the behavior of joking and acting facetiously. The term can also refer to the speech and behavioral mechanisms adopted in the presence of an authoritative figure. Shuckin' and jivin' usually involves clever lies and impromptu storytelling, used to one-up an opponent or avoid punishment.

    Now tell me that this does not describe EXACTLY what Obama has been doing.

    Of course liberals will say it is racist, it is easier to call it a racist remark than it is to admit that it is true.

    Liberals probably don't even know that Bill Clinton was using Shuck and Jive when he was telling us that he never had sex with Monica Lewinsky. To this day you fools think that he was impeached for having sex and that is not true. He was impeached for perjury and the obstruction of justice.

    you'd be surprised. Pretty often, although the term does stem from the behavior of Blacks and we are deriding them for doing it.

    Blacks are always loud, obnoxious and disruptive. This is something in society that should be looked lowly upon no matter the race doing it.

    Now quit shucking and jiving you political bias so as to make white people look bad. It's bad behavior period.

    It's not a real common phrase, but yes, I have used it against whites. I actually use "jive" more often by itself.

    I often include old slang in my conversation because I like it. Like when I say "get Susan on the horn." I love it when people look at me and ask what the heck I'm talking about, then I explain that people 60 - 80 years ago called the phone, a "horn."

    Who cares?

    Obama is not African American. He is half Afro-Arab.

    The Afro-Arabs (mixed arab/black with brown skin and Muslim religion) are the ones who SOLD the ancestors of the REAL African Americans into SLAVERY.

    So, Obama uses shuck and jive to pretend he is one of them when actually he is the spawn of slave selling Arabs.

    Only when referring to wiggers. White people typically don't "shuck and jive." Only racist black people do.
