Well, there's King James, the NAB, the NRSV, the Jerusalem....
And now there's the Obozo.
What a maroon.

Maroons (from the word marronage or American/Spanish cimarrón: "fugitive, runaway", lit. "living on mountaintops"; from Spanish cima: "top, summit") were runaway slaves in the West Indies, Central America, South America, and North America, who formed independent settlements together. The same designation has also become a derivation for the verb marooning.
Thanks.
Recently, it's become a synonym for moron.
Colloquialism, you know.
And he is the Great Orator? Really?
That was truly an awful reading. Clipped, emotionless, gaffes. Ugh.
From the Urban dictionary:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=maroon
If you want to take the third most used definition of anything, I'm sure you can locate some sort of racist intent. Like, "Anony is a Dick". I you look deeply enough, I imagine you will find a slave owner who referred to one of his slaves as "Dick".
Racism, straight up!
Did you guys quit using Macaca?
Still a truther Anony 11:33?
