  • Why did she need to mention skin color anyway? It wasn't relevant to anything. She's overly preoccupied with color, and it slipped out in her statement, and she subconsciously associates dirt/filth with dark skin.

  • @aaronfleischer Ignorance is bliss i would say.

  • Some people are just brain dead.

  • Hmmm so will Obama ask for her resignation like he did with Shirley Sherrod,a Black woman, in the U.S. Agriculture dept ,who was misinterpreted and NEVER REALLY SAID ANYTHING RACIST or will he let this ugly , PIG SKINNED white woman keep her job AFTER SHE ADMITS TO SAYING THE COMMENT that has enraged Indian people? Obama is proving himself to be a spineless , republican Uncle Tom.

  • how big are ana's boobs, man stupid teenage hormones

  • @Mfast95 If you think those are massive melons then you simply don't spend enough time watching porn.

  • It was a racists take of  darker people!

  • ye indeed.. the dirty thing.. if spoken in mistake, probably just meant that if HER skin got dirty it would darken into the same color, because white things made dirty.. become.. anyone?.. DARKER =D

  • Indians have a disgusting skin color

  • @serioushamster lol....leave it to a Paki to say that...you idiot....Indians and Pakistanis are the same race, loser. Put a Paki and Indian next to each other, you probably don't know, which one is which. Idiot, people can't control there skin color.

  • @lilnicky492 I don't think I would mind if you're ignorant lol

  • @sxehitman007 u mind that im ignorant u mad?

  • @lilnicky492 Oh, I don't mind, I'm just saying it like it is.

  • Great top Anna

  • Who the fuck cares

  • if she thought indians were dirty why dont they go help the people in poverty so they can have a bath or shower every day

  • Not racist enough. I would have called 'em "filthy, funny-lookin' subhuman Indian shitbags."

  • @SwampThizzle Aww did some one lose their job to an Indian ?

  • @zeus018 No, but I heard your mom's job at the blowjob factory was outsourced to India.

  • Nigger.

  • i am indian and i find the tamailians very dark as well. South indian are dark, but not dirty.

  • Reminds me of Ghandi, he referred to the lower Indian class coolies.

  • The dumbest diplomat EVAH!

  • yeah TYT, calm down, lads. I understand that you'd like to see people get nailed to all sorts of crosses, burning or not, but this doesn't seem like anything racist at all. Please. That guy Cushball or Plushman or whatever who wrote that high-rated comment is right. Read the line, 'dirty and dark' is not the same as 'dark and dirty'. It's a grammar thing. Ok. I made my point. Adios.

  • She said her skin was dirty, so it was dark like the Tamilians. I can't say for sure by just reading the words, not hearing she say it, but she might have just screwed up.

    Jesus, there's a viral video here in Brazil of a blonde kid "painting" his body and face with mud all happy saying "Look, I'm black, I'm black!" The kid found it amusing that the mud made him look like he was a person of darken skin and everyone thinks it cute, but if it was someone older, people would go like "How dare you!"

  • I think there is supposed to be a comma after dirty....

  • anvil

  • There was no intent to be hateful, yet at her position and education level, she should get the heaviest anvi. Meaning that she should loose her job.

  • Ana............oh sorry I was just daydreaming for a second good video guys good video....whatever it was about...

  • A diplomate saying something as racist and insensitive as that is the equivalent of a pilot getting drunk and crashing a plane. I don't think this is forgivable, she needs to go.

  • I'm a Tamilian Indian and I'm not offended. We do all look like Arnold Shcwarzenegger at the end of Predator and it sucks.

  • @cpufightclub You're damn straight!

  • stupid tyt. DIRTY rice is a darker shade and no has a problem with that. I think we should realize dirty doesn't always mean unclean and can also indicate hue saturation depending on connotations. damn libs

  • Yeah...I can so totally see what this was meant to mean. She meant she got covered in dirt and that she got a tan.

    Stupid way to say it though.

  • I want to get a job on tyt as Ana's mic.

  • This isn't even news, who cares? This is retarded.

  • Diplomatic response: My comments were related to the situation on this place, full of dust and lack of water for cleaning. "My skin is already dark and dirty" as yours, I understand now your situation. As a representative of my country I will contribute to the enhancement of this situation by offering you long term solutions.

  • Diplomat Maureen Chao, Chopre he randi,Gaand chaat mera chootia!!!!

  • When issuing an apology, avoid the word "if" altogether.

  • there is a higher standard for a diplomat

  • Her comments were just ignorant. She should not be representing this country with that small mind of hers. That's the equivilent of going into Sweden and a tan skinned person saying 'oh I was waiting in the cold so long my skin got pale and sickly looking like the Swedes' like wtf. Dumb bitch.

  • Am i the only one who read her words as "my skin became dirty" "and dark like the Tamilians"? Read that way it's not offensive at all.To me anyway

  • That is just stupid, there is absolutely no racism in that statment. Their skin is dark and im pretty sure that she ment that her skin got closer to their color because of the dirt, not that tamilians skin is dark because it is dirty. Sometimes i think that Cenk is looking for racism, where there is none.

  • @MegaSuperUberMe

    "Sometimes i think that Cenk is looking for racism, where there is none"

    How can you say this after listening to Cenk in this vid?

  • this was a misunderstanding. she meant her skin became dirty and thus was dark, not tamilians are dirty and dark

  • "I'm sorry IF my words offended you."

    Oh, no harm done, you white, rich, haggard old cunt. :)

  • The title made it sound like she actually said something explicitly racist about their skin color. Their skin IS dark, there's nothing wrong with mentioning that. She didn't say their skin is dirty, she said HERS became dirty and thus was dark, like the Tamils. I feel like Cenk is intentionally misunderstanding her..

  • Ron Paul will never send Americans to fight & die for Israel & Jew

  • If I was her boss, I would have fired her immediately.

  • Did she mean her skin was dirty, so it looked dark? That the people there were dark, and dirty due to not cleaning?

    Nevertheless, it's a stupid screw up.

  • dirty, FILTHY tamils

  • Well, most Indians little to no personal hygiene. I think she is right in what she said.

  • Bullshit over-reaction to a innocent statement.

  • his right... they are dity.. and dark.. hello? mcfly?

  • Makes me embarrassed to be anglo. Sheesh.

  • @tangledweb79

    maybe you should move to india.

  • @6xp4ip Why the frig would I do something stupid like that?! 

  • I understood what she was saying and I don't believe it was meant to indicate the people were dirty, but that her skin was dirty to the point of being dark.

  • Griffin!kali mah!

  • If ppl didnt get wat i typed below search for "temple of doom family guy" or "kali ma family guy" :D

  • Kali maa kali maaa shakti de.........omnamahshivayah omnamahshivayah omnamahshivayah

  • Dirty....skin color

  • Apparently you can frack, blow or donate your way into being a diplomat, brains need not apply.

  • Come on it's not like she called them sand niggers .

  • I don't think it had anything to do with the color of their skin. I think it was more about the dirty feeling she felt. I lived in Iraq for a year. I hated taking a shower only to come outside and the dirty air/sand would get back on me as soon as I washed it off. I think some people who don't understand this was a perception thing, not an attack on the Indian people.

  • She did not say "Dirty Skin Indians, Nor Dirty Tamilians. I believe she used improper grammar, and that's what caused this whole mess. I think she tried to say, " ...and my skin became dirty, and was dark like the Tamilians". She was making 2 points; she was dirty, AND she was dark, but they overlapped making it look like she was saying dirty like the Tamilians.

  • @plushman79 Took the words right out of my mouth. This is so ridiculous, this is obviously a grammar problem... come on, if there wasn't an ....and dark skinned like tamilians... then you have a point, if she said dark and dirty, then you have a point, but she said her skin was dirty, and dark like tamilians. So, this is totally absurd.

  • @plushman79 She did not use improper grammar. She said something improper. There is a history in America about calling people with dark skin dirty and some people like to make excuses for the insulters but not care about the feelings of the victims.

  • @plushman79 still inappropriate for a diplomat living in their country, she should be fired.

  • @plushman79 exactly

  • @plushman79 She should never say some one darker than you say they are dirty! That is racists take!. Wouldn't be right for a darker person to say look at all those pale looking white people.?!

  • Why do we have idiots like this assigned to a political position.

  • Ana, you have some really hot boobs... I want to see your boobs.

  • @JMMT7022801 Yes, I bet you really do want to see those boobs.

  • Holy shit, I think you guys are way over thinking this. To me, her quote seems like it can be interpreted as "After a 72 hour train ride my skin became dirty...........which made it dark like the Tamilians". Can we get some real news now?

  • Ana is SMOKING today

  • @Foreverclever87 She always is. ;)

  • @sightsandsoundsofpak, @neeraj2608

    by the way, i love that there is an indo-pak argument in a non-cricket video on youtube

  • Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't India have an informal caste system based on skin color with the fairer-skinned Indians being on "top" while the darker Indians are at or near the bottom of the totem pole? If that's the case, wouldn't it be hypocritical to get offended by this comment if you are Indian?

  • @sightsandsoundsofpak, @neeraj2608

    indian muslims don't face discrimination in india...stop talking crap

    1 or 2 isolated cases does not mean that 14% of the population is discriminated against

    there so many elected muslim officials in india, can you name one, just one, non-muslim elected official in pakistan?

  • I don't think she thought about how it'd sound before she said it...

  • all she said was her skin got dirty, and dark (like the tamilians). not dirty like them. dark like them, because she was dirty.

    its not ignorant or offensive. she was describing the way she looked.

    this is stupid.

  • looks like it"s Chao Chao for Mrs. Chao there. by the way is she Chinese? cause i can easily say i saw this long movie to the point my eyes were looking like a zipper. oh i'm sorry, was that offensive? of course it was Mrs. Chao. but like u, i wouldn't loose my job either. make sure u take a shit load of soap to Indian now.

  • hahahahhahahha....india....hah­­ahhahahah....the birthplace of racism and backwards thinking (think "caste system") "offended" by a "racist" remark....hahahahhahaha....the­­ir whole damn society is built on racism....hahahha...i got yer frign apology right here between my legs...frign a-holes...

  • Maureen Chao? Is she Asian? LOL

  • @FaMingZhe Exactly!

  • diplomatic- adj.- skilled in dealing with sensitive matters or people; tactful.

    oh,the irony.

  • I thought it was the Book of Mormon that talked about "filthy" dark skin color.

  • It sounds bad but if anyone uses the Indian railway system they'll say same thing... BUT NOT MAKE AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT

  • Bible - 1 Timothy 6:10

    6. Obama Director of Economic Council, Larry Summers is Jew

  • TYT race baiting again?

  • @Camroeun I love pale skin I have pale skin, why can black people demand to switch the PC term to "people of color" but white people can't demand to be called "people of paler"

  • Honestly doesn't really seem like a big deal. If the culture of political correctness is not the way it is, no one would care.

  • I think you two are going way too far with this. Sure she shouldnt have said it, but I can see what she means: She got so dirty that her skin was the same colour as a tamilian. Geez.

  • @EdgarD8387 You are the one who brought up her race fucktard. You can post when you have a point to say. You can defend this retarded bitch in your head meanwhile.

  • An average fifth grader would have done a better job at giving a speech than Maureen Chao. Seriously.....

  • Usually kids learn by Kindergarten, it's not nice to make fun of other people, or make fun of their skin color, whether they are white, brown, black, tan, whatever.

    Perhaps Maureen Chao needs a refresher course in Kindergarten, common sense, & etiquette. Certainly, if I were surrounded by people of a different race, as a diplomat, I could never say anything that would be open to misinterpretation.

  • "Diplomats"!!!!!!! Aren't they supposed to be like ... diplomatic???

  • @EdgarD8387 Hell no, you racist fuck. Blacks, Asians or Hispanics can be just as racist as anyone. Why does her race even matter? She's a complete failure as diplomat and that's the end of it.

  • Can you imagine a politician referring to black people as dirty skinned? Whether this was intentional or not, she should not be a diplomat any more.

  • She's just stupid. I don't know what was going through her head. Closet racist.

  • 72 Hours on a train? Give her a break.

  • What if she gave a similar speech in the 'hood in Chicago or New York, but substitutes the words "African American" for "Tamilians"?

    It still wouldn't be very "diplomatic", correct?

    She is just a closet racist - not a KKK type. It is a free world and she is entitled to being dumb. But in the job of US diplomat, she must have the ability to choose her words carefully, not carelessly. Until she learns discretion, she needs to get her lips sewed.

  • It was definitely a stupid thing to do...their skin color has nothing to do with their hygiene (unless they're seriously filthy, after all, look at rednecks). But yeah, riding those trains for that long, you're damned right everyone on board is dirty. They're poorly maintained rail systems through completely UNdeveloped wilderness. It's not a race thing, it's just a fact of life for those kinds of regions around the world. It's not the people, it's the place.

  • Diplomat FAIL.

  • that bitch is just stupid

  • What the fuck is a Tamil-lee-an? It's Tamilan, get it right.

  • i was at a bakers in yorkshire and this posh white lady had some rolls she said they were ghd and ask to speak to the cheif the chief came out and it was a little indian girl and that lady throw up becuse an indian touched her food.

  • She didn't have intent, she's just another dumb diplomat who shouldn't have a job at a McDonalds drive-thru.

    The Tamilians, are aboriginal races of India who were pushed south by Caucasians throughout many decades, the Caucasians also mixed heavily with them so the Tamilians are more "whiter" than this diplomat thinks.

  • dirty and dark ??.....people contributes multi millions of dollars in tanning beds and tanning lotions to be dirty and dark...

  • @hellokitty7654321 Yes, pretty much. They end up looking orange anyway.

  • @hellokitty7654321

    I think was trying to say that she was dirty and her skin was as dark as them. It was just poor wording.

  • Chao Bella!

  • i'm tamilian, from india

    and OMG i just realised i have dark skin because whatsherface Maureen Chao just said so

    even if she didn't mean to be offensive it was still a stupid thing to say for someone who's job is to maintain good ties with other countries

    but having said that, nobody really cares and her comments aren't going to affect anyone....it's just that the media had a slow news day that day

    they've moved on to a new topic now...so everybody just calm down

  • @greatnewtaste The only thing comical is that's what she's going to be known for from this day on, in her 15 minutes she made herself a joke. XD Though you're right there are more important things to cover.

  • Please Ms. Chao give me a VISA , just get me away from these light skinned Indians they do bad things to us.

  • Look at all these white people trying to defend her stupidity.

    Dumb bitch was dumb, and obviously a not fit as a diplomat where every words count. She needs to be fired.

  • @lamyunholic - No-one is defending her stupidity. #LOL

    You're just mad because she offended your 'race'? If you are mad, just say you're mad #LOL

    Get over it. 

  • @GAMBlT LOL U MAD BRO

  • She's American...

  • I wouldn't piss off indians. I think she screwed up.

  • It's racist. Even if she doesn't consciously intend racism,saying dirty skin looks like the skin of a dark-skinned person is clearly racist.

  • She didn't mean the dirtiness applied to the Tamilians, only the darkness.. the worst that could be said of her is that she made a statement whose meaning could be easily twisted..

  • It seems to me that she meant that her skin became dirty, therefore her skin was darker, which made it about as dark as the Tamilians.

    Why would you read it any other way unless your being dramatic or highly sensitive.

  • My kiwi grandparent were still referring to a Maori ancestry as "a touch of the tarbrush". They don't mean anything by it, it's just the sort of language that they use and what they've grown up with. Couldn't this be something similar?

  • White peoples guide to defending racism...

    0)defend an individuals right to discriminate

    1)question the definition of the words 2)play stupid so you can defend racism

    3)say it is a liberal propaganda 4)came up with bad analogy

    5)say you are defending free speech

    6)Play the victim card

    7)Complain about over sensitivity

    8)Say every body is racism

    9)Talk about the virus of political correctness and liberalism 10)defend racism by calling the victims racist or go with OBAMA ! OBAMA! OBAMA!

  • @mdaaaa1211 OFC. . . Because everything any white person ever says is riddled with racism. . . It's never TYT or other media making a mountain out of a mole hill like they do in almost every other subject right?

    You're a fucking a joke, and this is a fucking joke. . . It's nothing but an insult to the true victims of racism and hate crime.

  • @mdaaaa1211 True.

  • She probably heard it from an indian, and just repeated it

  • @gratex Who cares what she said Indian continue to ask her daily ..PLEASE can i come to your country, anywhere but here.

  • @gratex Light skinned indians rape, enslave murder... the same black indians daily

  • You know what would really suck is if she was meaning my skin became as dark as Tamilians (from the high UV concentration in the area) and also became dirty.

    o well, end of her career.

  • I think she spoke out of context but think about how messed up our world is when someone says something stupid. Evolution is one he'll of a big pill to take, since so many people still act like forest animals.

  • Sheesh! what is wrong with the posting text today? Keeps repeating, and I keep deleting the repeats!? UGH.

  • I read the original article, and in it she was praising her positive past experience in India, so I doubt her 'dirty dark' statement was ill intended, but rather just spoken out of context, as it would not be congruent with her other statements. She stated it clumsily, but not meant to be racist. Anyone with common sense can understand that. I swear the media will make a mountain out of a mole hill, in order to side step away from the real more pressing issues today.

  • Comment removed

  • When she goes to see her boss, he's gonna say, Chao! Mrs. Chao will responds, "Yes, what is it?"

    He'll say, "No Maureen, I mean CHAO. Get lost. Ya fired!"

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • I read the sentence like 'my skin became dirty. it became dark like the indians.' She didn't necessarily mean Indians' skin is dirty. It easily could've just been an awkward placement placement of that adjective.

  • But when they're taking American jobs everyone is calling them names and then crickets. IJS But OK sic sic - I'm ready...

  • anytime i hear sumbody cry racist i automatically call bullshit cause 99% of the time it is ESPECIALLY on TYT with the number of times they've been shown to twist the story or just out right lie just to get their racial slant on it. This might actually be but its like the boy who cried wolf its so over used its lost all meaning.

    Anyone who's taking TYT's word on it and just go along screaming and crying racist at anything they do REALLY needs their head examined.

  • okay TYT obviously misses the most imprtant point that TAMIL is a languag and those who speak TAMIL are called TAMIL too, TAMIL is not name of a place... apart from TAMIL NAIDU in india however there are TAMIL in SRI LANKA as well so there is no such thing as TAMILIAN if she was refereing to the people of TAMIL NAIDU it is still TAMIL not TAMILIAN there is no such thing as TAMILIAN

  • @AfghaNPranksteR You're completely wrong you stupid uneducated lying dimwit.

  • @nilbud Tamil (தமிழ், tamiḻ, [t̪ɐmɨɻ] ?) is a Dravidian language spoken predominantly by Tamil people of the Indian subcontinent. It has official status in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu and in the Indian union territory of Puducherry. Tamil is also an official language of Sri Lanka and Singapore. Tamil is also spoken by significant minorities in Malaysia and Mauritius as well as emigrant communities around the world

  • I was hauling stuff out of my ass the other day and this particularly greasy nugget looked just like a Turk. What, racist no no I was just saying they're the same colour, texture, look and feel, what what's with the over-sensitivity? Hey lighten up, c'mon be the white man.

  • Well, there you have it.....Another racist just outed itself (emphasis on the word 'it'). Wow, ever since Obama became president, you selfish mf white folks have been really showing your true colors, haven't u? And ur balls....Your pink balls just keeps getting bigger & bigger. Calling black folks "monkeys & tar babies" etc; And now Indians are quote "dirty?" You mf's are bold aren't u?

  • @MsHuman30 Fuck off mudrace.

  • The train was powered by coal....

  • President Ron Paul will never send Americans to fight & die for Israel & Jew

  • @Stevie68000 That's because he's a fictional character.

  • Arabs are pretty filthy though. It doesn't matter how politically incorrect it is to say it, it's still true. They stink tremendously.

  • IMO:

    As a diplomat, she should be let go.

    If she had no intent to be hurtfull, she should not be reprimanded.

    Also, gotta say, you look great in that top Ana :)

  • At least the rest of the USA draw the line at slagging off their food.

  • So what? Fuck all those PC whiners. All she said was that her skin bacame dirty and it looked like the skin colour of those fuckers. She didn't say that their skin colour was dirty.

    Her statement is 100% accurate, you get enough dirt on you and your skin colour will look like that of some indian or mexican or whatever.

    Seriously this world has become sad as fuck, retards now not only call out every little thing as racism. The whiners need to stfu and grow thicker skin.

  • @Solidus1086 It's because you're a moron that you don't understand, it's not your fault. I forgive you.

  • What. A. Racist. Bitch.

  • You don't get the right to be offended, it's called freedom of speech, if your pussy hurts get some vagasil.

  • @IncDeathCreed Ha aha yeah go girl, your so tough and whatever gender you're meant to be.

  • @IncDeathCreed actually they do have the right to be offended and outraged. as long as no physical violence comes into play and no death treats are being spouted. they are however allowed to be just as offensive and insensitive in their counter argument like anyone else. but what would be the point of communicating each others views if all anyone does is slinging mud at each other?

  • Eh, i dont like indians much either, they look goofy and they smell bad. and before you annoying pussy cocksuckers post any reply to this, i dont give a fuck.

  • @IncDeathCreed ah yes, the enlightened viewpoints on Youtube.

  • @neeraj2608 yes because you're mother fucking albert einstein.

  • @IncDeathCreed compared to you? why yes, i am.

  • @neeraj2608 go back to church and tuck your ego back into your asshole.

  • @IncDeathCreed you mean "native Americans" not "indians" 

  • @Bleakillusion wrong mother fucker, i mean indians from india you retarded fuck. think before you comment.

  • i want to get dirty with ana

  • Ana looks nice
