On his radio show last week, Geraldo Rivera applauded the Associated Press’ decision to drop the term “illegal immigrant” from its official style guidelines and then decreed that no one should use the phrase any longer, seeing as how he believes it is akin to saying “negro” to describe a black person.
“You can never use the expression ‘illegal alien’ again,” the radio host said to his colleague Bill O’Reilly. “It is a pejorative. It’s like saying ‘negro’ or ‘homosexual.’ It is a loaded term that doesn’t accurately describe.”
“Why don’t you just give me a list of things I can say?” O’Reilly pushed back.
“Illegal aliens” and “Bible thumping” are two things you cannot say, Rivera quipped in reference to his Fox’s colleague’s controversial remarks about the religious opponents of gay marriage.
“I’m not giving into this stuff. You’re crazy,” O’Reilly replied. “If somebody’s in here and breaks our immigration laws, they’re an illegal alien.”
“They’re not an illegal alien,” the host concluded. “They’re an undocumented immigrant, give them some slack.”

Wetback? Beaner? Chili-gut?
Just about all of them are becoming verboten. I think it's just a way of slamming our history and traditions.
So now we can’t even call soddomite homosexuls, but only “gays.”
Like hell I will.
Even better: criminal invaders.
En espanol, invasores criminales.
And saying Geraldo is like saying dumbass.
“Foreign national home invader squatter”
How about FISH....Foreign Invading Squatting Hispanic!
Yeah, I’m just that disgusted and snarky this morning.
Geraldo is a Nazi.
What should we do with those people who won't quit using 'offensive' terms, Jerry? Lock them up? Cut out their tongues? Kill them? Give us your honest opinion, Jerry.
Geraldo has been pro amnesty ever since his 20/20 stories on the US border.
Digging those up would reveal him saying illegals are “just looking for work and a better life”
I flat refuse to use the words “gay”, “African American, or any permutation “? American” when identifying someone by race/skin color. I rarely call them anything but Americans unless warranted.
I still use negro, colored, black, and only use homosexual or sodomite when describing those deviants. If I can tell which specific Asian race they are I use it or I use Asian. Same with Mexican (no Miexican_American, Latino, yada yada).
As I told my wife the time has past for being nice and I am too old to give a sh_t anymore if I offend someone.
LOL - that’s a keeper!
Well, drug dealing is kinda work, and raping is a better life to a low enough character.
If illegal aliens are "undocumented immigrants", then shoplifters are merely "undocumented shoppers".
Funny! Let’s just call them criminal aliens...
I watched Geraldo the other day on some talk show and he was leering at one of the other female commentators but trying to do so subtly. He’d step in too close to her and you could tell her it was making her uncomfortable. Wonder if he’s been behind any enemy lines lately. I dont like or trust the man. It’s obvious he’s for sale to the highest bidder.
Gabon? Congo?
Love it!
Regards,
I still use perverts and sexual deviants. And I am not “straight.” I am normal versus abnormal.
They are most ASSUREDLY not undocumented. They bribe people with the DPS offices to sell them LEGITIMATE driver’s licenses with falsified identities on them (one such woman who was dealing in this trade was murdered 3 days after the FBI swooped in when she sold IDs to arabs who were remaining here illegally).
They also traffick in other illegitimate forms of identity fraud. BUT they do have documents. Geraldo is a lying whore.
