As well he should.
 
2011-12-14 09:06:32 PM
Done before one. Excellent.
 
2011-12-14 10:17:58 PM
That's because they think GOP is an order, and they all urinate on themselves.

Didn't know truth was an apologizable offense.

There's really little more to add here.

Silly cat pictures, perhaps?

I'll give him credit for handling it well.

Comparable to the "N" word?

Retard Please! (new window)

Mr. Counselman, props to you for taking the blame as a man and not trying to deflect the blame on those who did not put words in your mouth, or keyboard.

Of course there are those on this board who will find excuses for using such offenses.... Not surprised and no sense in trying to shame you as many of you are too blinded ever to see your poor deeds.

I think the real story here is that Fort Wayne has a 12 year old City Councilman.

The GOP wishes they had the collective intelligence of one Down syndrome kid.

you shouldn't blurt out the truth in public ... sometimes
 
2011-12-14 11:27:34 PM
Out of the two of those groups, one knew to be offended.
 
2011-12-14 11:30:27 PM
I like Down's Syndrome people generally. Can't say the same about Republicans.
 
2011-12-14 11:46:17 PM
Comparing people with Down's Syndrome to the hive of scum and villainy that is the GOP?

Now that's offensive.

Shut up, retard.

Retard is a hateful word, we don't use those slurs here.

/Yes it is, Ned.

"I'm a long standing Democrat," said Julie Tutwiler, who is a mother raising a intellectually disabled child. "I have voted in many elections as a Democrat. The day I read that post on Facebook, I was offended, and I was appalled by my previous votes as a Democrat for this community."

Lady, you're a farking retard. Someone's retarded comment makes you appalled you voted for other people? I guess it really is genetic.

Hi, I am a retarded coont named Julie and it's more important that my son is not called names, and to that end I will vote for people who will thanklessly vote against his financial and health benefits.

How could he stoop so low and say such an insensitive thing? Honestly, the gall. The mentally challenged have it bad enough as it is. They don't need to be mocked further.

as the republican heads say: "science dumb, but nucular explosions are sooooooo wowwwwweeee shinnneeeee"

"From my stand point," said Hines at the meeting, "I did not have the sensitivity to realize that it was harmful to certain member of our community."

...because you're farking retarded?

Some Democrat piece of shiat makes an offensive remark.

Go fark yourself, smitty.

At least he didn't call them "retarted".
 
2011-12-15 02:57:56 AM
What a dumb thing to say. Retarded people try hard to not be seen as victims. Republicans want to be seen as nothing but victims.

Obama made fun of retarded kids in the Special Olympics so what's the beef here. It's cool now.
 
2011-12-15 04:35:55 AM
He signed a petition to promise to never say retarded again?

LOL WUT.

Why dont you just castrate yourself man. Damn.

I think her kid wrote the article.

Jeeze, it's elementary school mistakes that they're making.

"a intellectually"
 
2011-12-15 12:54:34 PM
Not surprisingly, both the article and farkline conveniently forget to mention that he's a Democrat.

Only 37 posts here because he's a Democrat. Nothing to see, move along.

I am sure you could find broad sweeping generalizations about Democrats to fill 62 posts or so until it gets to 100.

I think Democrat was inferred from the headline. Unless you know Republicans that compare Republicans to retards.. which is possible, but I've never heard about it..

There's a modern day difference between people with "Special Needs" and "Retards." The special needs people understand this. The Retards do not.

The boy with Down's Syndrome who works at my grocery store has Special Needs. Sarah Palin is a Retard. See the difference? If you have a problem with this, you are Retarded.
