Just a request, write what you will, but please stop using words in your posts like retarded. It is derogatory and many people on this site have children with special needs. The word retarded is an old word with very negative connotations. Please update vocabulary.

It's pretty pathetic though, that those same parents who have a special needs/handicapped child have the EXACT same political stance...as the only ones who use such derogatory & denigrating words on here. :ohdear:

Do not forget that this so called President during the campaign mocked a physically reporter by wildly waving his hands around and making glutteral noises.

Yep.


And some of those same parents who have a special needs/handicapped child, still voted for him...and are proud of it! :oops:


Unbelievable. :ohdear:

Oh please ladies...you know how retarded you sound posting that ridiculous statement?

You have your very own forum...a safe space...just for you ladies. If this adult place offends you...have some self restraint and stay away.

My God...what words will you ALLOW us to use?

The Nazis are coming...the Nazis are coming...burning books and censoring speech.

I agree with your suggestion and believe that its intent should be expanded to include expletives ethnic and racial slurs and all words meant to denigrate a person.

I had always been impressed by the fluency of prose from past centuries. In today's world we have but a few truly great writers.

Unfortunately our academic institutions have failed us, our political climate seems to only spew poison with words intentionally applied to create division and agitating propaganda.

It seems we can no longer produce inspiring and uplifting orators and leaders. Its an obvious "tell" on the state of our union which continues its delcine.

Hey Jane - I dont recall using that term on here...not sure how you come to the conclusion that many on here have children with special needs.

I don't belive anyone on here is calling children with special needs "retarded". While many imply that there is a flaw with another's thought process, nobody is ridiculing actual people with special needs.

I agree with you retarded is an old term, I can remember, mid 70's, sitting at the kids table at a family Christmas gathering , and my brother and I in dispute calling each other "retard". While our cousin Wendy (who was the poster child for the Special Olympics for a number of years) sat with us. We love Wendy, and never think of her in that way, it just became a term that was used to describe "stupidity" by a person that DOES NOT have special needs. My Aunt, is a terrific lady. She did not care what others called each other, but I bet she would get involved if someone was picking on her child (same as most moms). To this day she drives my cousin to work (they said Wendy will always have the intellect of a 15 year old, Wendy is 53 now), but Wendy has control of the radio!

Quit acting like a little girl..."Oooh, he called me a name mommy...get daddy to beat him up". Sound familiar? Sound like the liberals way? It's a WORD...YOU supply the meaning YOU give it. To me...it's JUST a word, a descriptor like saying..."Hey you, or Hey Buddy" Only more detailed...so you KNOW I'm talking to YOU. Grow up people we're NOT on the grade school playground.

Because we've been "dumbed-down" to the lowest level in our society...the minorities. They're stupid idiots who can't understand past the 4th grade. You want to know why EVERYTHING is written for idiots? Because we're becoming a nation of idiots. You want to know why the level of prose is so low...the standards have been lowered for minorities. Why write what NOBODY will understand?

Our government has failed us. ALLOWING the country to drop from #1 to #25 ONLY so they could "be seen as equals". If you make the standard low enough...your DOG could "qualify".

The "propaganda" ALL comes from the "they're our equals" side...the left...the liberals. SHOW ME WHERE they as a people are the EQUAL of whites as a people. SHOW me the black villages, the black TOP school, the black calm and peaceful neighborhood. The black majority city you'd be proud to call home. Show me ANYTHING that blacks do well besides sports...

We can't have LEADERS because they have to play the political correctness game. They CAN'T blame the "people" really responsible for the decline. They can't remove women from positions they don't belong in. They can't remove minorities from positions they don't belong in. Can't deport 100 million Hispanics. Any "leader" is stuck living, operating, within a system full of lies and deception.

You believe you are qualified to make judgement of those parents, because they don't agree with you...I see your quest to end bullying has not changed.

I am betting those parents would not lie about a $100 donation, nor would they judge people on how well they speak English...

Say's the woman... Who as usual...really say's nothing.

You've got your OWN woman's forum...stop coming here to cry...we really don't care how you "FEEL" about things...facts "TRUMP" :) your stupid, ridiculous, "feelings".

Small hands? How about that dusty, cobwebbed, hasn't seen any action in 20 years, dried out, stretched out, stinky, old cooch of yours? If YOU can make sexual insults...why not others? Don't start something you can't finish.

You women and your insults. NEVER speak to the facts...never.

Tell me of my lack of analysis...please. Disprove ANYTHING I've said. I DARE you...triple dog dare you.

SO, are we going to make a list of "offensive" words? If so, please provide a copy so I can be sure to be PC. After all, I don't want to retaliate from being called a "Nazi" or whatever with the wrong verbiage. Words that are not PC to the sensitive that are calling me a "Nazi" just because I have German immigrants in my family. They aren't "retarded" but they probably don't like to be called "Nazi" either. SO, let's make sure that all sensitive folks are treated with kid gloves, while they slur the poster.

ON the other hand, call me what you wish. I don't take it personal, unless you make it personal. And I think that a couple of you know what happens when you bring up something personal with me. I am thick skinned, so I hope you are also.

Discuss politics in a political forum. Slur or disparage the politicians, not the poster.

How many times does it have to be proven that he DID NOT? As usual, the liberal press twisted it all around to suit their own agenda.

It was the same when they said that he wants to punish women who get abortions. I watched the entire interview with Chris Matthews and that is NOT what he said.

Chris Matthews: If abortion were to be made illegal, do you think that women who get abortions should be punished.

Trump: Yes, but it is not currently illegal so that question is not even relevant. As you said, if it becomes illegal again, then yes the woman should be punished.

As usual, it was edited to say what they wanted. I agree with what he said. If it is illegal, then she should be punished along with the doctor. I have never heard of any doctor walking up to a pregnant woman and telling her he's going to do an abortion on her. They may advise their own patient to do so, but it is ultimately HER decision.

You are full of baloney. I saw TRUMPANZEE do the arm waving and jabbering as well as saying that women who get abortions would be punished if it becomes illegal.

Both actions on Trumpanzee's part show that he is a "so-called President ".

Make America Great Again. Impeach TRUMPANZEE.

You know it is getting very tiresome to blame the media for everything. Trump does that to avoid any responsibility and you folks just follow along.

Your transcript is MADE UP AND NOT ACCURATE.

He said what he said and then added a bit of what you are saying in a statement when he realized that he made a mistake.

I would agree he probably meant what you said, BUT....

PLEASE STOP WITH THE MEDIA...THAT IS CHILDISH AND GETTING OLD AS HELL. HE GOES AFTER THE MEDIA ANYTIME HE DISLIKES WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT HIM.

Imagine as he called a Federal Judge who was confirmed 99-0 a "so called Judge", someone calling him anything close that.....he says he is going to make America great, yet he talks more glowingly about Russia than this country....his comments today with OReilly at ANTI USA and it is not the first time. He attacks, not offers ideas, but attacks all our systems in this country and love what happens in Russia...he defends Russia for hacking into our systems, and wants us to 'move on" yet hangs onto the election to tout himself. He is a buffoon.

Stop with the media crap......do your own thinking

Sandy, you really should learn a bit about the word "impeach" before abusing it, ignorantly.

Do you even know how the process works? Go do some research and then come back and tell me how that is even a credible comment. Impeachment is literally impossible for at least two years. And I say two years, because only two years from now would the left have a chance to build up a Democrat majority to even suggest an impeachment. And that is probably a big IF.

No, it is not literally impossible to impeach the Trumpanzee. There will be more and more Republicans getting on the bandwagon as Trumpanzee does more and more stupid (and illegal) actions.

Trumpanzee's ego is probably too big for him to resign. However, remember that the American protest marches did end the Vietnam war because the vast majority of Americans got sick and tired of it. It is possible the same thing could happen with this so-called president.

See, that's why you all lost the election. You live in a fantasy world where Obama's Utopia takes care of everyone and Hillary is a virgin saint and Trump will be burnt at the stake.
