We know he is not sensitive at all. Maybe this was just another insensitive ignorant bumbling move on his part unbeknownst to him. I don't know. He is not a whole lot of good things though. Sadly.

Many bada**es are Americans who commit crimes against one another. Many great people are immigrants/refugees and wouldn't hurt a fly. But we clump them in rigid bins and refuse to rethink our badthink because it is inconvenient. Thinking is hard work. It is so much easier to just accept what your political party tells you to think and move on. Isn't it? :( less

This morning- i changed my email (on the site) to a random email that i won't be able to remember, than i copied and pasted random letters in the "change password" field, changed my display name, removed my pic, and than clicked "save settings" than i clicked "log out".. now i have no way of getting back into my old blurtit account :) less

Adlai Stevenson didn't mind adding a little humour to his comments. Once when he was attacked by Protestant minister, Norman Vincent Peale, he said, "I find the apostle Paul appealing and the apostle Peale appalling."Lincoln didn't mind wordplay either and once wrote, "He said he was riding bass-ackwards on a jass-ack through a patton-crotch." (Work it out.)Some are quite rude and very funny but I can't post them here. Do YOU have some favourites? less
