I don't think it'll surprise anybody but it might shock a few non nutty republicans into doing something about the lunatic fringe of their party.

Even by his standards, I am a bit shocked by this. Limbaugh seems to be on a professional death wish now.

For people who don't think it's fair that black people get to say it - and they don't -

He's a champion right now.

But you want to shut them up -ask them why it's so important that they say it.


And it's absolutely hysterical how out of ALL the things in our 'racialicious' society - that's the one thing they hang on. I think people like Rush jerkoff while saying it over and over and over again.

If that's how you have to get your jollies. . .

She said her generation (kids born 1995 and later) use it in a race neutral way. It's a moot point though, since she doesn't speak for an entire race. Just herself.

By all means, Rush should start using the word and see how it works out for him.

Who said that all the time.

Her friends were primarily black, and I figured if it didn't bother them, it didn't bother them.

And that's the thing - if it doesn't bother somebody, hey, it doesn't bother anybody.

If it does bother somebody - whole different story.

it is spelled or pronounced?

He obviously feels that not being able to say the word has been a major deprivation in his life.

The more that piece of crap uses that word the more he'll continue to lose sponsors! Let the whole world see what a blathering load of shit he is!

but sad for so long that people look down upon it, just waiting to find a loophole so maybe he can start saying it on air again.

What a sad, sad person.

Not surprising in the least bit.

"Why do they get to say it but I don't? Huh? Huh? Huh?"

Oh, you get to say it. Go ahead. Say it.
