In recent news, there has been a debate on which word is worse — the “R” word for retarded or the “N” word for nigger.
Perry Campaign Apologizes for Using ‘R’ Word
By Jake Gibson | FOXNews.com| Updated February 04, 2010
Texas Republican Gov. Rick Perry’s chief consultant is under fire for using the “R” word in a conference call regarding details of the Texas GOP gubernatorial candidates’ first debate.
The problem with most people is that they are too sensitive and lack not even a bit of humor from off-handed yet plainly descriptive words to the fact as used by people making gratuitous remarks that they later should have apologized for saying in the first place.
If people have not already watched the Dave Chappelle’s Show on Comedy Central, they have missed something important in their lives. These devil advocates are trying to teach a valuable lesson about race among humans — that people should not judge each other by the color of their skin.
As portrayed by Dave Chappelle in two video shows:
`Meet Clayton Bigsby, black white supremacist.`
One could learn from Clayton Bigsby, who found out that he was born BLACK but for most of his life was BLIND for hating blacks so much and not realizing that he had married his equally blind but WHITE wife, whom he divorced for being a `NIGGER lover`. If people watched the videos, a good laugh would be had.
Why can’t people learn from former Governor of Alaska Sarah Palin in which:
`She’d come home from work looking for her son Trig, he said, and she’d ask, “Where’s my retarded baby?” She would apparently use the term regularly to refer to the child, who has Down syndrome. “She’d say it kind of regularly. I think she was joking, but that doesn’t make it right.”`

Sarah seemed fine with calling her child a retard.
But from this morning on HOT TALK RADIO 560 AM and probably during the Sean Hannity segment, a caller was not fine with people calling those who are disabled as `retarded`. The father has an eight year old child who was rendered retarded from a stroke since birth.
So I guess there is fine line between tasteful jokes and insensitive comments for politically incorrect choice of words, such as RETARD and NIGGER. Get over it IDIOTS!
