Oh man...
You know what the "I know 3 black people" defense usually sums up, right?
I'm wasn't commenting on the nobel prize win for veiled racism, I was commenting on people complaining about Obama in general.

What are you saying there Ted? I know alot more than 3 black people...so if you were again insinuating that i am a racist then again you are being ignorant.

I think he was (perhaps clumsily) pointing out the common defense of "I know X people" but I'm against X." principle.
IE, Now I like gay people, I have gay friends, but I'm against gay marriage. Usually spoken by the whitest of white people who probably have zero gay friends.
This however, is not a hard and fast rule.
