"Oh my lord. It's actually the one word that will guarantee you a kick in the groin from any woman in earshot."

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought "The Vagina Monologues" (celebrated by liberals) invoked the "c" word as an affirmation of female pride.

[brewcrew]

When it comes to that evil sack of flesh, that was nice. I commend you.

[georgiadevildog]

Is anyone else having flashbacks of "That depends on what the meaning of the word "is" is."??

I think the older Lynyrd Skynyrd song "Gimme Threee Steps" uses this term of endearment in the live version from the album "One More from the Road"

What a silly person. What I guess she means is that the "c" word might be said to a woman playfully, ie in a joking way, rather than with a mean intension. Term of endearment, I do not think so.

BTW, when Jim Rice was with the Red Sox some silly reporter heard a teammate or someone with the club call him an " ole bush "n"-word." It was apparently playful and both Rice and whomever said it, denied it and claimed he called Rice an "Ole Bush." And of course if you are African-American, wait scratch that, a black African-American you can use the "n"-word all you want. It is the first segregated word.

The silliness that these people who want to use words to disqualify people except like in the case of Gary Barnett at CU this time when they don't want the word, which by the way Barnett is not accused of saying to disqualify someone. The beauty of PC.

4-letter c-word..

I thought Couric had more letters than that.

Hoffman answered, "Yes, I've actually heard it used as a term of endearment."

I guess she has a pimp instead of a boyfriend.

[bannie]

To me, that is one of the most despicable words ever uttered.

I'm appalled.

Mind you, I was in the Army (enlisted), and I come into daily contact with 15-year-olds, so I'm no prude. This one, however, is--to me--nothing BUT debasing.

(I'll bet jmstein7 won't have to sleep on the couch! Why would anyone MARRY someone toward whom this word ever arose??)

[Larry Lucido]

"Charge"? Now there's a c-word I try to keep my wife from hearing or using.

[Doohickey]

Try it in the mall sometime, or try it out on your wife. Have your health insurance up-to-date.

[A.A. Cunningham]

Kind of like Mulva or Gipple.

"Yes, I've actually heard it used as a term of endearment."

I could see her having an EXTREMELY short career at Hallmark!!!!

[Rebelbase]

Oh, wait DELORIS!

[7thson]

Rhymes with punt.

[bannie]

haha!

"Yes, I've actually heard it used as a term of endearment."

I am trying to write a love poem incoroprating the c-word.

RUSH ALERT!!
