“That’s some pretty bold talk ...” And profane. I can see a campaign ad by opponents showing an assortment of him using the f-word and other obscenities. Won’t help his cause. His crudeness and related behavior lost him the last election. Based on other posts here it doesn’t seem to bother most. Oh well.

It bothers me too. I know it may not be true in this case, but I am offended by profanity. I can't help it - it was the way I was raised. I am a sinner like everyone else. I do not think I am better than anyone, but I can't help but think the current acceptance and cultural approval of profanity on both sides of politics, is part of the general degradation of our society. Yes - Patton was a great soldier who didn't need the profanity to be great. Ask George Washington, Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson and Joshua Chamberlain if they would have been been more effective if they had only used more profanity.

Country Club Republicans can f*ck off because not only are they nauseating snobs - they are weak, ineffective and treacherous.
