It's all an unfortunate misunderstanding. He didn't say "adios mofo," he said "adios MODO".

Don't feel bad. My daughter, when she was in Middle School (now graduated HS last month) came home one day and was using the term over and over because EVERYBODY at school's using it now. She didn't have a clue as to what it meant. She thought it meant "My Friend".................After I told her, she hasn't used it since..... (at least not around the house!).....
Since Perry is the HMFIC in Texas, he can say what he wants! Ha!
It's all an unfortunate misunderstanding. He didn't say "adios mofo," he said "adios MODO".
When the interview is over...KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT until the mics are taken off you and you are away from them. Geeeez. You could BURP and it would still be heard. Sometimes these people ALL lack common sense!
OMG...a governor actually cusses.....
Stop the presses.....does he drink too?
Oooooooh the humanity....
NeverGore :^)
PUH-Leeze, Not this early in the Mornin'!!!!
"Missouri Foal"- a colt or filly born in MO.
At first, I thought he said "mojo" and I was wondering when the Odessa Permian nickname became a derogatory term.
Yup. We met my daughter's boyfriend for the first time this last weekend. He mentioned to my daughter that he was surprised he did not hear any cussing in our home. My daughter told him "Just wait". About that time, unaware of their conversation, I hollered "YOU A--HOLE" at my husband, LOL!
Here's another:
"I know you believe you understand what you think I said, but I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant."
I have no idea why he would combine Mexican goodbye with a ebonics slang for a insult. Saying what he did to the wrong person will get you shot.
At least he didn't squirt all over a blue dress.
So what? He has nice hair and that's all that matters. Besides, it's not like he told a joke about trying to milk male horses.
Every veteran knows that one; pretty much the same as "Fubar."
Clever...but I see through it, you are just trying to invoke the Catherine Zeta Jones Rule ; )
Fubar? Snafu? Help me out, guys...
When the interview is over...KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT until the mics are taken off you and you are away from them.
Words of wisdom.
I have signed legislation outlawing the Mofo's. We start bombing the MoFo's in ten minutes.
Not as bad as Hoffeines(spl) when he compared rape with bad weather, "nothing you can do about it so just lay back and enjoy it".
What is wrong is that he used the Ebonics version of a very vulgar (obscene) phrase.
It does not matter is the vulgarity was in another language, it means the same. This is enough to be fined by the FCC.
