Now the Repugs are being all PC...
...with their phony outrage over the Special Olympics non-issue. Once they bashed being PC and now they are the PC police. Typical. :nuke:

1. Which repukes, exactly?
There is so much dirt on them doing far worse through actual actions against people with disabilities, I would like to rebut the specific assholes.

I have seen them address the president as the 'chimp' while chastising him for his remark. There is no hope for the knuckle-draggers.

7. Actually, I don' think we'd notice. They say far worse everyday.
In fact, I would bet they won't mention it, because they have worked against the rights of people with disabilities.

8. sorry you took it that way
--- I say "non-issue" because I don't think too many people truly think Obama is so mean spirited that he looks down on the handicapped, and also the fact that he apologized. ---
