Google finally got to the bottom of that whole "n***a house" map search screw up, and it says the culprit is none other than YOU ...
if you're a racist who frequently uses those words on the Internet.
Here's the explanation from a Google spokesperson, "Our ranking systems are designed to return results that match a person's query.
For Maps, this means using content about businesses and other public places from across the web."
In non-egghead speak -- Google Maps matches searches for "White House" with words commonly used when people discuss the White House in public Internet discussions.
If their logic is accurate ... there are a ton of web users calling President Obama's residence the "n***a house." Sad to say ... that's probably true.
Google says it's working on the "failure in our system" -- but adds it will take a while for the fix to roll out.
