Willard, Offended, Still Talks Like A Thesaurus

By Baxter

The white police commissioner of Wolfeboro, New Hampshire has refused to apologize for calling the President of the United States the N-word, and in fact is doubling down. Willard Mitt Romney is shocked.

"The vile epithet used and confirmed by the commissioner has no place in our community," the 2012 Republican Party standard-bearer huffed to The Boston Herald.

What Willard doesn't get into is how the citizens of any city or town can have confidence in a police official who slurs whole groups of people. But today's Arpaio-ish GOP isn't really known for worrying about stuff like that, are they?

And besides — what took Willard so long? This story broke days ago, and the Romneys are the most famous inhabitants of this renowned (and now, roiled) vacation spot. Maybe with a son who has spoken thuggily about the President in the past, Willard had to take some time to decide just how "vile" the police commissioner's behavior really was. (Meanwhile, thousands of teabaggers across the country are wondering what the word "epithet" means.)

And Scott Brown: Really? Your condemnation comes in an email from a staffer who writes "Scott Brown believes..."? Mister Butt Tweeter couldn't haul his smartphone out of his pants pocket long enough to make a statement himself?

Finally, Rancid Pieface needs to be asked about this. Why does his party attract so many people who are so bold about expressing overt racial hatred — generally, but not exclusively, directed at the twice-elected leader of the free world?

He won't get that question, of course. We cats HISS.
