Title: Let's be politically correct

It is worse to use a derogatory description in private with a number of your work associates when you are not using it to derogate the people formerly described by that word (especially if you are a Democrat), even if you apologize, than if you use the same word in public on a radio show you broadcast worldwide when you are specifically calling people the derogatory word (if you are a Republican), and you don't apologize but justify using the word.

Any questions?

If you do have questions, please direct them to:

Hey, I had a question and tried to send it to that address, but it did not work.

According to one of the many media extensions of the left, ABC, it is acceptable for an asshole to refer to other assholes as assholes.

The radio host seems to agree.

"Our political correct society is acting like some giant insult’s taken place by calling a bunch of people who are retards, retards," Limbaugh said on the show. "I mean these people, these liberal activists are kooks.
"They are loony tunes. And I’m not going to apologize for it, I’m just quoting Emanuel. It’s in the news," he continued.



Since the radio host received no backlash for the LT comment, Porky must agree as well.

The real question here is, should we hold the Nut House Chief of Staff in a higher regard than a radio host or a cartoon character?
In this case, probably not.


Bottom line: Political Correctness is retarded.

Is it OK to retard the spark on my Model T Ford?

I was, of course, being flip. Actually Sarah P was my target.

As a free speech proponent, I think we need to just let speech generally go forth, and not get our knickers in a bunch.

If Sarah Palen had made a more inflammatory (and disingenuous) condemnation of the WH chief of staff (who is an ass and violent and vicious and far from a decent guy), I think someone should have doused her with fire retardant.

Political correctness is retarded.

Colts by 7.

I know. flip is fun. I flip pancakes, coins, and my lid now & then.

Colts by more than 7? 14 sounds more like it.

Palin-Rahm nothing, mute, he isn't resigning and shouldn't for that.
