Remember the Washington DC Mayoral aide who got fired for the correct use of the word "niggardly"?
Now we have the democrat candidate in Massachusetts, Shannon O'Brien getting all upset at her opponent Mitt Romney for using the words "becoming/unbecoming" to describe her behaviour in a televised debate.
Ms O'Brien claims the word is sexist, and that Romney wouldn't have used such a term to describe a male opponent.
You What?
Never mind that the phrase "Conduct unbecoming of an officer" is a regular feature of military codes, it seems Ms. O'Brien is unswayed, and even illicited the help of the "smartest woman in the world " to reinforce her claim.
Do you think these moron democrats have got confused over the words "becoming" and "comely"?
Duh !
