Also, proof that not all Catholic saints are goody-goodies; St. B. was quite the witticist and social critic.)
I wouldn't go so far as to call any of these a complement, except in so far as some people's hatred of you is something to be proud of.
If people are stupid enough to publicly call the President a n****r, i think it harms them more than it harms him...it's not the first time he's heard that word, I doubt it shocks him to learn that's what they think of him--on some level I think he may even revel in their hatred of him, it reflects so very badly on the speaker. It reflects badly on the causes, positions and affiliations of the speaker.
The same are all probably true of Sec. Clinton; politics at that level requires thick skin.
