Rahm Emanuel's penchant for profanity has now drawn the ire of Sarah Palin. The ex-Alaska governor is demanding President Obama fire the White House chief of Staff for remarks she says were disparaging of the disabled.
In a strategy session between White House aides and progressive groups, Emanuel called a plan to air attack ads against fellow Democrats opposed to health-care legislation 'f----ing retarded.' The remarks were reported in the Wall Street Journal.

Hell no. He should be encouraged to keep up the great work. Let it all hang out (so to speak).

He should be fired.
But he’ll probably get a raise.

Oh please, do we really have to show fake outrage for a comment during a meeting. It wasn’t like he was at the Special Olympics and made the comment. We should show we are better than the democrats. I mean, I have two cats, their names are Tard and Retard.

What should we expect from this guy? His history is well documented. He sure doesn't care what the public thinks about anything.

Retarded is a word. Some people are retarded and some proposals are too. Are people objecting to his use of a perfectly good word or to “f-—ing?

Should Rahm Emanuel be disciplined for calling a proposal “f-—ing retarded”?
Yes. 51%
No. 46%
Not sure. 3%
Actually, I think that Obama, America’s First FAILED “light skinned African American [Pres-dent] with no Negro dialect unless he want’s to”, should make Princess Rahm take responsibility for his boo boo.”

... a plan to air attack ads against fellow Democrats opposed to health-care legislation 'f----ing retarded.' The remarks were reported in the Wall Street Journal. That can be read two ways. A plan to air-attack ads would be effing retarded. However, a plan to air attack-ads is not so bad. I read it the former at first and was in agreement with Rahm.
We are sensitive to this because we know that the libs would crucify a conservative for saying this no matter the context. We would hear about it for days.
However, I think we are getting way too sensitive. I say political correctness be damned.
