Liberals always find way to rationalize trashing Conservatives..so Babs is saying that Maher did not understand what the word “Retard” meant..fine, two can play at that game..Rush Limbaugh should go on his show and say that he takes back his apology to Sandra Fluke, he had no idea what “Slut” meant, he was just making a joke..lets see how liberals like them apples
The word “retarded” did not carry the stigma it does today when Bawbwah was growing-up. Back during the Civil War.
Is she gonna use that logic to defend use of the N-word next???
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Whoopi, many folks do not know it’s Not Proper to use the “N” word, because that’s what they use to call folks,not Black people So why don’t we give those people a break too!! Let’s Be Generous!!
OK, here goes...
The whole Stoooopid group on The View is RETARDED!!!!
There, I said it.....
I would love for Todd Palin to just beat the crap out of Maher.
Sorry to say, but Palin should have applauded Maher for not surrendering his freedom of speech to liberal political correctness. Conservatives need to pay attention here and not get sucked into the liberal game of denouncing people for uttering ‘hate speech’.
Free speech means exactly what it says and I won’t trade it for PC speech any day of the week. Nor should anyone else.
The bigger part of this is.. Maher should have his guts stomped out for derisively mentioning Trig in a comedy bit. Nothing’s ever off-limits when it comes to the family members of conservatives to these people. What an obnoxious a**hole.
If I ever saw two less qualified to make a statement about retards, Baba Wawa and Whoopi are those two.
They are too stupid to be called idiots.
Todd Palin has shown remarkable dignity and forebearance as his wife and kids have been attacked by liberals.... I could not blame him one iota if he finally flew off the handle and pounded the sh*t out of one them.
““I don’t think he intended it to be mean-spirited”
Is she stupid or just liberal (or am I being redundant)? He meant it in the nastiest way possible.
back in barbara’s day if you were a woman you slept your way up the corporate ladder - like she did. today that’s just being the empowered office slut.
I’ve seen a lot of discussion of this issue, but very few specifics.
I think it’s pretty clear that the word was used and intended to be used, to be hurtful. HOW hurtful it was depends entirely on the context.
So why don’t we get to see the context?
I still use the word retarded and I am not PC and don’t care. However, Mahler was using this to attack and insult a small child to get at a politician (Sarah Palin). Mahler is a turdburger shit-for-brains, used condom F***wad to be polite.
Babaweewee is retarded. I don’t know the words mentally challenged, as they relate to Babaweewee.
Another word trap. If a liberal says something ignorant, it’s OK. If a normal person says the same thing, the person is branded racist/sexist/homophobe/headchopperphobe/
GOLDBERG: You know, I think that we, society took the word “retarded” and made it into something derogatory. I think we made it a bad word by utilizing, well because we turned it into, you know, something that you call somebody to make them feel bad, to feel different. And I think we, you know, and as we have changed it into developmentally-challenged, you know, we, society has that…
Whoopi you mean like the word Negro? Because like quite literally, that is what you are. Yet, the Negroes found that to be offensive, so it has morphed over the years, out of respect to........anything but Negro. Let Bill Maher call you a Negro and see how that plays. What a bunch of hypocrites.
