So what? If the shoe fits............ Can you honestly say you have never heard that used by anyone regarding someone that was white? I’ve heard it many times, white, black, men, women. This PC is out of control. They don’t play fair and it’s not right to expect us to. I will leave FR and never set foot in here again or donate a red cent if we can’t say anything bad about that hateful America hating woman while the left brutalizes Palin.

Well, I have checked all the comments in the article posted on this thread, and I failed to find the racist comment. I used the browser's 'find' function, by the way, and typed the words "black" and a couple of racist words, and my finder couldn't find it. Then I continued reading and I noticed that the "racist comments" are attributed to the words "ghetto" and "trash." Since when are the words "ghetto" and "trash" racist?

So I checked out my dictionary for the exact meaning of ghetto:

"A usually poor section of a city inhabited primarily by people of the same race, religion, or social background, often because of discrimination."

"An often walled quarter in a European city to which Jews were restricted beginning in the Middle Ages."

Exactly, ghetto was the word once associated with Jews, and now has a broader meaning, but it certainly doesn't mean 'black.'  And the word "trash" doesn't have any particular racial connotation, either - it's meaning is obvious.

Now, if I remember correctly, the political left has constantly and consistently trashed Sarah Palin's children in a vicious and disgusting manner.  Words like 'retard' come to mind, used in mocking baby Trig.  A mainstream (liberal) late night personality joked about the statutory rape of a 14 years old.  Horrible language said about Bristol included words like trash, whore, and numerous other epithets were common.  But hey, we are conservatives, and nowadays that means, we're supposed to shut up and take it.  We play nice, turn the other cheek, and when the Marxist parents who have publicly proclaimed their hate for America with observations like "for the first time in my adult lifetime I am really proud of my country," and dress their children with political symbols to convey a message to the world, we are simply supposed to say nice things about them and leave it at that.

The parents should know better not to use their children as props, but they hide behind them because they know no one will dare to criticize them. That is a cowardly attitude, but typical of liberals. So they deserve whatever they get.

Yes, I can honestly say that I have never seen such a thing. In fact, I haven't ever seen such a thing directed at ANYONE since I left high school, until some FReepers brought it back.

Why don't you go hang out at a jr. high school playground? I'm sure you'd be a big hit there.
