I just think they are making a big deal over something that she said 25 years ago and she's asked everyone for forgiveness...why persecute her so? I don't understand it at all. I was raised in the south and I HATED that word, I hate it still but...I don't just hate it when a white person says it...I hate it when ANYONE says it...it's a filthy and disgusting word!!! I guess I believe in forgiveness is all...is that so wrong?
