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.

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.

2. Ironic.
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.

5. Cue Sarah Palin and Trig in 5...4...3...
...:eyes:

Still waiting for the outrage over Rush Limpball's mimicking of Michael J. Fox...when that happens we might be a little closer to being even on the "PC outrage" front...
