Translation: I will add a completely irrelevant tangent to my initial ridiculous comment, just so I can take a swipe at some anonymous liberal strawmen and create the illusion of equivalence with this idiot I really shouldn’t be defending in the first place.

Also, “Chimpy” is as bad as “faggot”? Really???

You need to recalibrate your insults.

No, that’s not the issue, Frank. This isn’t just “someone,” this is the co-chair of an organization representing a very prominent and vocal political and ideological movement.

I should add here that if the issue were simply that someone had said something that offended a former President, then surely crapstain, chimpy and Bushitler are as bad as “faggot”.

Because I didn’t think of the word as being meant to offend gays; I wanted to make that distinction.

Yes it is Mr. Rotter

If you believe that, then why did you imply that its usage by Williams against former President Carter isn’t a big deal as long as the former wasn’t using it against the latter as an insulting term for a gay man (Do any of you think that he was perjoratively referring to former Pres Carter as a homosexual?)? What’s the point of raising this question if you agree with me that “faggot” is ALWAYS a crude word to use?

It’s a crude insult, Frank, in whatever context it’s used in.

When I was growing up , we called wimps and Mama’s boys “faggots” and we didn’t know what a homosexual was.

Well, ignoring Awkward’s point that you obviously knew, I honestly can’t say I’m surprised you acted that way when you were young.

Now now… I have a ridiculously small body, ridiculously affected by the fairly small amount of alcohol I just had, and I’m admitedly not qualified to represent anyone even when sober, but I still can tell that random namecalling is just stupid. Maybe not if trolling is what you want to do, but if the best person you can find to represent you is a troll… no comments.

Wow, that is soooooo weird that you just happened to call “wimps” and “Mama’s boys”- which probably means kids whose masculinity wasn’t up to your impeccable standards- by a term which is, unbeknownst to you, also used to denigrate gay men…. what are the odds?

It’s like putting an infinite number of monkeys in front of an infinite number of keyboards and getting a random insult that magically happens to dovetail nicely with the traits you’re attempting to insult!

I would have thought that one was indefensible… heck, shows what I know.

Also, since he also made a reference to “hairy pitted female & faggot alleged male biological train wrecks”, I’m inclined to believe that he knows what the real “f” word means.

Oh, and because he’s a fifty something year old man with access to the internet, popular culture, and common sense.

And, of course, for Oliver, any Republican becomes all Republicans.

If he’s so against it, you know what that means. He’s a cruiser.

He’s totally been watching South Park! Or, you know, not. Maybe just a clueless douche?
