"That’s just retarded. This is just retarded. That is the most retarded thing I’ve ever heard." Governor Perry top campaign consultant Dave Carney
That coming a few days before Sarah Palin will be at a major campaign event with Governor Perry during the Superbowl, which also includes the officially retarded Ted Nugent on guitar. David Carney screams RETARDS!
This whole thing is about as retarded as it gets.
A week ago Sarah Palin called for the firing of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel for using the word "retard" more than a year ago. After the dust up cause by Palin, Emanuel apologized to the Special Olympics which was well received.
Sarah Palin in her new role as chief enforcer of Political Correctness in America uses it only as a political tool. [To the ill informed that would seem a shift from Left to Right, but the Right has always surpassed the Left in finger wagging over words]. Kick! Political Incorrectness.
The Palin camp found out about David Carney’s January 14th flub because people in the Kay Bailey Hutchinson campaign for Governor of Texas squealed it to the press. Sarah Palin’s handler Meg Stapleton said that it was "disrespectful". No request for an firings.
Just a few days ago Rush Limbaugh boldly crossed the retard line:
"Our political correct society is acting like some giant insults taken place by calling a bunch of people who are retards, retards. I think their big news is he’s out there calling Obama’s number one supporters f’ing retards. So now there’s going to be a meeting. There’s going to be a retard summit at the White House". Rush Limbaugh just the other day.
In response Sarah Palin’s Meg Stapleton said:
"Gov Palin believes crude and demeaning name-calling at the expense of others is disrespectful." There was no call for firing.
So, an off colored man in the off colored White House uses the word "retard" once a year ago and Sarah Palin calls for his head on a platter. Two Right-wing loons use the term three times in a sentence in the past two weeks and there is no comment from Palin at all other than her handler calling it "disrespectful."
BTW, Nutcake racist and abject gunloon Ted Nugent – who calls most people RETARDS all the time – will be playing the National Anthem at the Palin Perry Superbowl rally. Ted Nugent proudly refers to blacks not as "retards" but "apes", Hispanics are "spics" and "webacks" who need to be shipped back across the border and who says he goes nowhere without TWO, yes TWO loaded guns on his person.
