		<description>If Allen didn&#039;t know what that word meant (despite his excellent French background), then he shouldnt have used it.  He should just have stuck to well known respectable &quot;shithead&quot;.

By Allan&#039;s logic, he can also use &quot;N**ger&quot; and pretend he didnt know that word, he only heard it used by other people.

By Allan&#039;s logic, we can all call him nincompoop.

He should really just withdraw and give some other Republican a chance.</description>

		<description>Allen has a brilliant campaign manager in the Karl Rove tradition. I suspect that his macaca comment will help Allen splendidly in Souther Virginia and among the rural white folks there and his subsequent apologies etc., will smooth over the ruffled feathers of the white urbanites and the Indian American Republicans who fawn and fall over any politico for photo opportunities and government contracts. So, there you have it, Allen is no dummy. But, the real smart one in Virginia and in our country will see thro the racism of this man who has a fetish for nooses, confederate flag and a visceral antagonism to people of color.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;John Reid, Allen&#039;s Senate communications director, said in a statement: &quot;I don&#039;t think George Allen would ever try to publicly embarrass or demean a young person even if that person was working on an opposing campaign. &lt;/em&gt;

What an ass.  Of course Allen meant to embarrass S.R.  Otherwise he would have kept his damn mouth shut.  He pointed out S.R. in the crowd for a reason.  And it wasn&#039;t to welcome him to Virginia.  His action speaks for itself.

Oh, and on CNN yesterday morning, S.R. said that he had recently introduced himself to Sen. Allen.  Has no one in the press asked the Allen campaign to confirm this?</description>

Trouble is, he can&#039;t sing like Jim Nabors,
but he can still show racism as his true colors.</description>

		<description>338 - Rickd, the difference is that the &quot;unfortunate&quot; remarks coming from Democrats are few and far between.  The &quot;unfortunate&quot; remarks coming from Repuiblicans just keep on coming every so quickly.

I don&#039;t mind you posting, what is it, three remarks from Demcorats.  There will always be many more &quot;unfortunate&quot; remarks coming from Republicans, Conservatives and Regressives.

In the same style of yet another &quot;unfortunate&quot; remark from one of the most regressive regressives &quot;bring it on!&quot;</description>

		<description>#33: &lt;em&gt;Allen is still going to win this race by at least 10 points. Democrats are wasting their time on it.&lt;/em&gt;

Thank you so much for your helpful advice, but we Democrats will decide for ourselves which races we think are important.  In my opinion: every single one of them.  But especially the ones that involve the very worst Republicans: Allen, Santorum, Ensign, Taylor, et al.</description>

		<description>#40: Excellent post.  I have seen this pattern time and again.  Tucker Carlson, several years ago, explaining the difference between Democrats and Republicans, said, &quot;You guys [Democrats] really believe that politics can change people&#039;s lives.&quot;  I think Carlson is correct.  Democrats believe that doing the right thing can actually have a positive impact on people&#039;s lives.  The current Republican Party, from what I&#039;ve observed, believes only in gaining and maintaining its own power, for its own self-interest.</description>

		<description>#33 &lt;em&gt;That said, Allen is still going to win this race by at least 10 points. Democrats are wasting their time on it.&lt;/em&gt;

And that&#039;s the difference between Republicans and Democrats. We&#039;d try to unload an idiot like Allen while Republicans called us &quot;intolerant&quot; for doing it. Republicans want to keep the dipshit around because 1) they don&#039;t think there&#039;s anything wrong with calling a dark-skinned person a monkey and then coming up with one stupid bullshit excuse after another for having done it, and 2) they like the fact that we don&#039;t like him. It&#039;s all a big game for righties. It&#039;s not about good governing. It&#039;s about stickin&#039; it to the other guys. Screw the country, it&#039;s all about winning and losing.</description>

		<description>Funny, posted this earlier, and lo, it has been deleted!  Could it be that those on the left don&#039;t like to hear that some of their own are guilty of the very same thing that Sen. Allen is being accused of?

Lets see.....

1. I love this quote. It&#039;s from Mahatma Gandhi. He ran a gas station down in St. Louis for a couple years. Mr. Gandhi, you still go to the gas station? A lot of wisdom comes out of that gas station.  Hillary Rodham Clinton &lt;strong&gt;D-NY&lt;/strong&gt;, January 3rd, 2004 in St. Louis. 

2. There are white ni*gers. I&#039;ve seen a lot of white ni*gers in my time, want to use that word. We just need to work together to make our country a better country and I&#039;d just as soon quit talking about it so much.  Senator Robert Byrd &lt;strong&gt;D-WVa&lt;/strong&gt;, March 4, 2001.

3. In Delaware, the largest growth of population is Indian-Americans, moving from India. You cannot go to a seven eleven or a Dunkin&#039; Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I&#039;m not kidding.  Senator Joseph Biden &lt;strong&gt;D-DE&lt;/strong&gt;, June 17, 2006, Manchester, New Hampshire.

What say you???</description>

<p>Lets see&#8230;..</p>
<p>1. I love this quote. It&#8217;s from Mahatma Gandhi. He ran a gas station down in St. Louis for a couple years. Mr. Gandhi, you still go to the gas station? A lot of wisdom comes out of that gas station.  Hillary Rodham Clinton <strong>D-NY</strong>, January 3rd, 2004 in St. Louis. </p>

James Webb is a shithead, not this volunteer.

That said, Allen is still going to win this race by at least 10 points. Democrats are wasting their time on it.

(Damn!! It&#039;s a variation on the &quot;I know you are but what am I?&quot; gambit. This guy is good. But, I think I&#039;ve got him.)

Oh yeah, well James Webb isn&#039;t a shithead. George Allen is. And no backsies.</description>

		<description>More incredibly stupid explanations from George &quot;Hang &#039;Em High&quot; Allen:

#3,472: &quot;I thought the young man might be from Macau, and his dark hair made me think of a crow, so I called him Macau-caw.&quot;

#5,988: &quot;I suddenly had to go #2 so bad that I regressed to my three-year-old self. And that&#039;s why I called out &#039;Ma! Ca-ca!&#039; I wanted my mommy to take me to go potty.&quot;

#11,713: &quot;I thought he was a wetba... er... a Hispanic fellow, so I called him &#039;muchacho&#039;. But, I had just put some potato chips in my mouth so it came out sounding like &#039;macaca&#039;.&quot;

#53,109: &quot;Okay, Okay, I give up. I&#039;m a bigot. I&#039;m a racist asshole from head to toe and deep down to the marrow.  I can&#039;t help calling a dark-skinned person a monkey. I called him worse stuff after he left. I was ready to go grab some rope from the trunk of my car and show him what we all thought of uppity nig... Okay, look we didn&#039;t do nuthin&#039; to hurt Sambo, so what&#039;s the big deal? Can I still be president?&quot;</description>

   Winning isn&#039;t everything.  Unless you are a republican where upon winning is more important than honesty, justice, integrity, truth, kindness, charity and honor.  Of course if you had the complete set of values mentioned above, you would have a hard time fitting in with the current set of Republicans.  Perhaps you might have been a happy member of the Republican party when Lincoln was a member.</description>
