(CNN) First lady Jill Biden's office issued an apology Tuesday morning after Biden faced criticism for citing "bodegas" and "breakfast tacos" to praise Latino diversity.

Biden made the comments on Monday during a conference in San Antonio for the Latino civil rights and advocacy organization UnidosUS, where she commented on diversity of the community and the work of Raul Yzaguirre, the former president and CEO of the organization who just last week was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor.
"Raul helped build this organization with the understanding that the diversity of this community -- as distinct as the bodegas of the Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami, and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio -- is your strength," Biden said, while mispronouncing the word "bodega."
"The first lady apologizes that her words conveyed anything but pure admiration and love for the Latino community," Michael LaRosa, the first lady's spokesman, said.

It was quite the day for Dr. 'Peggy Hill.'

I just don't know what made anybody think it was a good idea to put that in a speech in the first place. It is pandering at best, and racially offensive at worst (which seems to be how most people have taken it).

The Leftoids can't even their rampant racism anymore, now complete with breakfast tacos. Dr. Jill should have visited some predominantly black areas to compliment them on their wonderful fried chicken kitchens and the evolution of seedless watermelons.

It's elitism to the max! They can appeal to the little people, pretending to speak their language.

My black pastor friend just called me and mocked her by saying "yeah, if she visited my neighborhood, she'd talk about "the chitlins we eats".

From USA Today: "The first lady apologizes that her words conveyed anything but pure admiration and love for the Latino community,” Biden's spokesperson Michael LaRosa tweeted Tuesday.

That's hilarious. Nobody ever suggested her comment was meant to be insulting or hostile, but only how it reveals her hidden snobbery and view of Hispanics.

"But Dr. Jill just loves those little brown people. She really admires them and wants to hug them."

Should we all define Dr. Jill as caviar and French wine? Maybe "elitist dingbat" might be better.

The only unforgivable sin against Hispanic culture comes in the form of a hard shell taco.

Even hard shell Baptists prefer soft shell tacos.

I eat em both ways but prefer hard shells.
