Laura did something on the radio. I thought that something was so stupid that I called her a moron.

She did something that put her at risk of harm, which shows a lack of judgment, similar to walking through Harlem at 3am while obliviously counting a large wad of cash in her hands.

This does not mean I personally object to her using whatever word or phrase she wants to.

I believe there's also a lot of difference between talking on the radio about things of substance as compared to walking through Harlem at 3 AM with that cash. It wasn't her judgment that was lacking, it was her spine. She gave in to the PC crowd!

We all have opinions and idiosyncrasies, but the world has been turned upside down. The very idea that voicing an opinion is a demonstration of judgment doesn't play, IMHO. Voicing an opinion is a right and a privilege, granted to us by God, according to my constitution. The right to hang out with people that you like has been turned against us, through their use of political correctness. Color was never mentioned in the Constitution. When slavery was finally dispelled in our country, opportunists found another way to chip away at our rights.

I am not a segregationist. I am a bigot. I don't like some people, but color has nothing to do with it. I do see some groups of color with whom I would never comport, but according to the whims of our modern society, we cannot exclude anybody. But, they go beyond that and demand that everyone be included.

Through political correctness, we have a dumb citizenry, and a tyrannical government. We have Obama, a community organizer, organizing the destruction of America. We have a Congress who pass laws against saying Nigger, and make it a crime sufficient to send you to the gulags. In the meantime, Barney Frank, et al., stand up there with a queer brethren and laugh, laugh, laugh, while they finish raping our economy.

I only listened to Laura's program once or twice, and not its entirety. I didn't care for her style or content. She raised the question about who can use words. The rest is history. I used it... And I'm not ashamed! It was meant for discussion, not for denigration. That was her intention as far as it's been seen, and it's a damn shame that we have people on here who claim that freedom of speech is moronic.

As previously stated, I have a low opinion of the education that has been doled out through political correctness. I also have a low opinion for drones and sycophants...

I personally don’t care what word or phrase she uses either.

But c’mon. What business is she in? How can she not know how such usage is going to play out. Didn’t she learn from the earlier “nappy” incident?

If you can’t learn... c’mon...
