^A gentle breeze? What isnt offensive about outright calling a minority group a racial slur? And why are you whining about the article source? Every corner of the media has covered this story. Heres a fox news link. Happy now?

Lol @ you being so butthurt that you have to throw insults and make childish usage of my username. Grow up. Yeah, I must be anti-something because god forbid I want people to have the same rights as everyone else in society. If I speak out about something clearly racist, Im anti-white. If I speak out against legitimate rape, Im anti-male. If I speak out in favor of equal marriage rights, Im somehow anti-family.
Gimme a break. Im glad folks like you are the true minority in our society. Its good to know that outside of the internet, folks like yourself are barely heard or recognized. We dont need more butthurt negativity.

Yes what he said was insensitive and wrong.
BUT, at least it gets reported.
So is
this link not also about a policitian making highly offensive remarks? Tell me, why does my link not offend you equally as the one you posted? It's the exact same concept. What do you find different about it? I thought this thread was about insensitive racial statements?
Yes what he said was wrong.
But again, why do you show an inability to talk about the main topic of the thread? Why when I bring up this story, and numerous other recent blunders out of GOP mouths, do folks like yourself try and play the blame game?
Lets be real...while the guy in the link is an idiot as well....this kinda talk has been quite common in the Republican party over the last year or two. And its not a good look at all. And this thread is about the story presented, and about how this keeps happening to the GOP. This is not to say other parties dont have their share of numbskulls. Im saying that the GOP has more frequent blunders regarding racism, misogyny and homophobia.
The leaders in the party can see how bad this stuff continues to be, and agree that the party is divided. Clearly they have their hands full with folks who dont want to move into the future.
