I tried to think of a different word but nothing happened.

“Actually Rahm called liberal senators “F**king retarded”. That is what the complaint was about.”

No complaint here, sounds about right!!!

[jim macomber]

Barney and Elmer both.

[ICE-FLYER]

What in heck will they call John Kerry?

[a fool in paradise]

Traitor.

[a fool in paradise]

Liar.

[a fool in paradise]

Wannabe.

[Desron13]

Only a libtard would fail to recognize the irony here. :-)

[dfwgator]

Yeah, let’s dumb down the language even more.

[Salamander]

You’re also going to have developmentally challenge any rust or corrosion that tries to form on the metal parts.

Gonna be a real bummer.

[Red in Blue PA]

These people are retarded.

Well... Now how are they supposed to refer to John Kerry?

"Supercilious a$$hole" is apparently still okay.

[SoldierDad]

Well, stop electing people like Bawney Fwanks and John Kerry, and we will no longer need to use that word in relationship to MA voters!!!!!

[dangus]

Ooh, I just invented another buzz phrase to see if I can get it to catch on: “People retardant.” Flame retardants retard flames; Democrats retard people.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Heh!

[Tublecane]

Retards (and the people who exploit them) don’t own the word. It pre-exists them.

[Right Wing Assault]

Ban a word? These people are nuts.

How about we ban some beliefs and thoughts while we’re at it?

Tards.

[GOYAKLA]

What word can we use for setting timing on an engine when it’s not being advanced? :^}

[tacticalogic]

You'll no longer be allowed to retard your carburetor's timing in your old Ford.

Distributor, maybe. Carbs, not so much.
