Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.) compared companies and workers to a cage fight between a giant and a midget on Wednesday night. By Thursday, he publicly expressed regret to abnormally small people for using the m-word.
Johnson was discussing the right-to-work enacted in Michigan on Wednesday when he said, What happens when you put in a cage fight a giant in with a midget? Well, the midget will not win the fight, Im going to tell you that. Why? He just doesnt carry enough weight to do so.

I asked him why he was so small and why he didn't grow
He slightly frowned and with his eyes he looked me through and through.
I'm quite as big for me he said, as you are big for you.
Poem my dad taught me manyyy years ago.
If midget is a bad word how come giant isn’t, too? You know, equal offense for the g-word.
Surprisingly insensitive coming from someone who is abnormally stupid.
Fortunately (for him) he’s a Democrat; he won’t be forced to resign.
Calling them abnormally small is just as bad.
That’s Sizism!!!
Or forced to spell ‘resign.’
Wee man must be overjoyed.
Please, show a little sensitivity. I'm sure you meant to call them "disgusting little sub-human freaks," not midgets.
Some may have missed Mr. Johnson's warning about the risk of Guam capsizing due to overpopulation. Here it is:
“Rep. Johnson Tells Abnormally Small People He Regrets Using the M-Word”
Mr. Johnson, how small of you to speak so offensively!
I thought at first he might have said “Munchkin.”
Now *that* would have been funny.
Just imagine if you said “n*gger midget”...lol
N-word, f-word, now m-word.
Like Pig Latin only different. The two code languages could even morph together if things get really offensive. Word-nay, word-fay, word-may...
Is this a joke?
He apologizes by calling them abnormal?!
I don’t understand what he is apologizing for. Why is midget a bad word?
Johnson is the idiot who is now supporting ending the second amendment because “dangerous and crazy” vets will kill themselves with guns.
“Make that a female black midget lesbian muslim (or atheist) and we might have something there!”
Yes, a new show for Geraldo! (and a candidate that would win, lol).
