McCain's Racist Remark During Second Presidential Debate? LOL

I'm not trying to be unnecessarily inflammatory, but how John McCain answered one young black male's question about Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac REALLY rubbed me the wrong way. Since every word is parsed, sliced and diced, I thought it was worth pointing this out... in short, he answers the only question asked by a young black gentleman by saying, 'you've probably never heard of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac'-- why would he assume that?

Here's the transcript...

"Because of greed and excesss in Washington and Wall Street, Main Street is paying a heavy price and we know that. I left my campaign suspended to go back to Washington to make sure there were additional protections for the taxpayer in the form of good oversight in the form of taxpayers being the first to be paid back when our economy recovers, and it will recover, and a number of other measures.

You know one of the real catalysts, really the match that lit this fire, was Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

I bet you may never even heard of them before this crisis (pointing at questioner)."

I know it's probably nothing, but hey, he torched Obama for 'lipstick on a pig' comments... :)
