White House Press Co(rp) finally asks about the slur

I can't believe someone from the White House Press Co(rp) has finally asked about the repeated slur used by Bush in calling the Democratic Party the "Democrat" Party.

Enough is enough and their feeble acts of denial do not dent the vast number of occasions this president, his cronies, and Republic(ans) in the past have utilized the slur without being called out for their slander.



REPUBLICAN Repubcan reblican.... epublica .......

3. Replican...
I say Replican, if the choice is drop two letters, it's gotta be the ub.

I usually call them the Republicult party, though, because they're mostly a cult of gullible, mindless sheep.

7. Can we drop more than two letters?
I think the pubic party is fitting considering that they act like a bunch of adolescents.

8. I've always liked republi-CON ('cause all they offer is a CON JOB).
Emphasis on the "CON" part. Yes, Virginia. A deliberate mispronunciation. They can fuck with MY party's name? FINE. Then I'm gonna fuck with THEIRS. Yes. It certainly does sound childish. I'm the first to admit it. But sometimes, to get through to children, I've found that it helps to speak to them at their level and using their language. They're not doctoral dissertation writers yet, after all.

Besides, I think it's probably good for them to see what it's like to be on the receiving end of the shit they spew. Taste of their own medicine. See how they like it.

BTW - it appears the reporter who asked was CBS's Mark Knoller, a former AP radio colleague. He wrote about it and added a mea culpa - because he himself had used it in his reporting. HE SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF!!!

10. Rublican, with an umlaut over the u.
"Rube-lican." Actually, either pronounciation works.
