Not a great sound bite for her, but I'm pretty sure she was referring to the press, not voters. -- nm - TWuG Jul 19, 10:13 8
- What fun is that??? She clearly meant poor brown people - Dr.Vermin Jul 19, 10:39 1
  - mmm...cake. -- nm - znufrii Jul 19, 10:49
- that's the way I took it as well. I thought by now that phrase would be taken ironically or at least not default to racist. [nm] - Mel Profit Jul 19, 10:16 3
  - I would have loved to have seen Robin Roberts get angry and say "You People!? What the hell do you mean 'You People'"? - amoxy Jul 19, 10:36
  - I choose to believe that everyone asking "what do you mean" is quoting Tropic Thunder. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 19, 10:23 1
    - when they don't it makes my eyes rain. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 19, 10:27
- I'm sure that explanation will totally win the day. -- nm - Mop (199 lbs) Jul 19, 10:14
- she was totally talking about poor people -- nm - decline Jul 19, 10:14
If a bot retweets "What do you mean YOU PEOPLE?", do I get to reply "What do YOU mean, 'you people'?!" -- nm - Beryllium Jul 19, 10:09
My favorite "you people" moment is Peter Griffin at the Million Man March (or Promise Keepers or whatever it was) -- nm - Max Jul 19, 10:06
