NYU 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2004 Of course, the untold story is --- Bush will call one of his own out when they make an offensive remark. Democrats won't. -=Mike Good thing I woke up from that "Every Democrat is pissed off at Howard Dean because he said Osama required a trial" dream. Yes, while there is a competitive primary happening at this time, this already disproves your "Democrats won't call out other Democrats for remarks" theory. They "called out" Dean for personal gain. What did Bush gain by calling out Lott? -=Mike Support from the African-American public. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blacks would be wise to vote Republican (what, precisely, HAVE the Democrats done for them?), but they probably won't and hurting yourself to attract people who will never support you is idiotic politics. He called out Lott because he felt what he said was wrong. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Olympic Slam Report post Posted January 8, 2004 (edited) Maybe it's because I have thick skin and I've become desensitized to just about anything, but in my eyes...... Hillary's comments weren't offensive Lott's comments weren't offensive Rush's ESPN comments weren't offensive The Dixie Chick's comments weren't offensive Dusty Baker's comments weren't offensive Since when did this country became a nation of bed wetting wuss bags that get offended at every turn? I am ashamed of this nation of cry babies and whiners. Dwight D. Eisenhower would beat us all with his belt if he saw what we had become. I am also sick of the Thought and Action police coming and constantly condeming what people say and do. It's like this whole deal with the Crocodile Hunter. Where does the media get off telling a professional crocodile expert how to interact with those creatures? I guess the media, government and screaming pressure groups, know more than we do because we're all just a bunch of ignorant and stupid people that would be lost without the Word and Action facists.
