Apparently so, Lady E. Funny, isn't it?

Termy, I always thought the term "raghead" was coined specifically to diss arabs, though I wouldn't be surprised if it was being applied to all muslims in general by some people in the 'States. I don't think Haley is an Arab,

Her heritage is Sikh and Sikh's wear turbans, whether Arab or Indian.

I know that, but it sounds like somebody in Carolina doesn't have a clue, doesn't it?

Because he used a term that was accurate in its bigotry?

Certainly more of a clue than someone who might, say, post about Hinckley shooting John Lennon.

I wouldn't immediately turn to "racist." Inaccurate idiot and religious bigot, yes.

I sometimes forget which fuckwit with a gun is which.

And the lady's obviously of Indian rather than arab descent, so the term isn't accurate.

She is Indian and was Sikh. Sikh's wear turbans, both Indian and Arab. It IS accurate. You apparently have problems with more than fuckwits with guns.

Point taken <snort>

I`ll admit the guy is to dumb to get his bigoted/racist terms correct.But that doesn`t make him any more sympathetic.

He was also calling the President of the United States ,....a raghead.

My point was that this knox is a GOP official ,saying this poop out in public.Not a comedian on private cable.So far,not a peep out of the cons.

It`s not just what the bigots say in the GOP,it`s how the GOP leadership responds

"So far,not a peep out of the cons. "

Not much out of anyone really. We banter opinions about which is our right, as was the idiot's right to say what he said.

If there is one thing commendable about this administration, they seem to realize that certain things just are not worthy of a response. Many things have been said about Obama, he is in the big chair, regardless of race he will have alot of detracters. If he spent all day responding to crap like this, he would have no time to wreck the economy. He has his work cut ouit for him, just like Bush had his work cut out for him by............ how far need I go with this ?

I think Obama is a bit smarter than Bush. I didn't say better or worse. Evidence is when Bush got up to the podium and admonished people not to buy into conspiracy theories. But the stupid know not of the smart. My first question about that statement is why did he make it. Why was the issue deemed worthy of a response ?

I've encountered so many con men in life that I can practically smell them. And I will assert this. Current politicians couldn't hold a candle to anyone with any skill whatsoever. The politicians operate under a form of protection, and they are getting lazy of mind. The bribes they take or are promised will be worthless if they do what they are getting paid to do by lobbyists and other "advisors". They don't see it. They have no business holding the reins of this government. Regardless of their morality, they are so incompetent the couldn't run a fucking lemonade stand.

Education can fill you with facts, but it can't make you think.

I wear ballcaps all the time that are made of cloth so technically you could call me a raghead too.
Some people would be *offended* if others called people "Big Meanies." (Mean people have "feelings" too?)
Now, I'm going down to the polls and voting for that raghead Nikki Hailey because I like her positions on a number of issues and because her opponents were lying about that extra-marital crap. Why wearn't they saying that two months ago when she was behind?
That just started 2-3 weeks ago when she started surging in the polls!
And of course they added; "we can't prove it though."
Yup, dirty politics is alive and well in S.C.
And this Voter has a message for those pricks; "FUCK YOU!!!"

-FR-

The racist part isn't the slur "raghead" it's the fact that he said they didn't need one in the governor's mansion, implying that her heritage would make her a bad leader.

Just got back from voting. One of the ladies there told me it's been "steady" all day. Only about 10 people there when I was there at 4:30 but they said it'll pick up after 5 when people get out of work. And I'm wearing my "I VOTED" sticker.

I voted on my way to work this morning. In and out.

If the asshole in question had wanted to be a bit more "correct" in finding a slur for both Haley and Obama, he probably should have gone with "wog." As a campaign strategery, he also could have chosen to just chop his balls off with a machete.

The numbers should be up soon.

Watching it now. It looks as though I may have to vote again in a "Run Off Election" on June 22 nd!
In this state one of the candidates has to win at least 50% of the vote in the primary.

Well, it looks like Nikki Haley got 49% to the other guy's 21.7 %.
So, I'll have to vote again.

It was a four person race.

I have to ask you a question that has been on my mind for a long time.

Why do you support a political organization that openly condemns the lifestyle you lead?
