| ______________________________ [Jul 31,2006 1:25pm - Yeti ""] dumbass PCers. he shouldnt apologize for that, his intention was not racist. if he had said something like "nigger" or "coon" that would be one thing. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 31,2006 1:32pm - xmikex ""] HAHAHAHAHAHA. What an asshole. Scratch that, if this nation's habits at electing leaders is at all consistent then this guarantees his victory. At least Bush fucks up by accident, this asshole could have picked a hundred other words but he chose the one word out of the thesauras that would piss everyone off. "The best thing politically would be to stay as far away from that tar baby as I can," he told a crowd of about 100 supporters in Ames, Iowa. Romney went on to say "I mean most politicians would run from that like a nigger from a bar of soap, but not me." |

You're right, but anything that will keep him out of the White House is a good thing. Bush is bad enough. A fucking Mormon in charge would be the worst thing ever. |

| _______________________________________ [Jul 31,2006 10:12pm - hungtableed ""] the double standard is nauseating.... I'm sure there was not even a fraction of a stink raised when John Kerry used the term 'tar baby' from the newyorktimes archives: "Senator John F. Kerry remembers well the advice he got a year ago when he was considering whether to lead a new investigation into the fate of prisoners of war and other Americans who never came home from Vietnam. "Everybody on my staff, everybody I knew thought I was crazy, and said, 'Don't do this,' " he recalls. "They said it's a no-win tar baby."" |
| _________________________________ [Aug 1,2006 9:54am - ShadowSD ""] Kerry only got away with it there because he was quoting someone else when he used the term. If he had used it himself in a sentence like Romney did, he would have gotten a LOT of shit for it. Even in court, although people can't say fuck when they're talking to a judge, they CAN say it if they're quoting someone else or referring to someone else's statements. |
