Minority Leader John Boehner should have kept his mouth closed until an investigation into the alleged “slur” was conducted. His public statement only served to heighten the false allegation.

This epitomizes the problem with the Washington GOP. They're always willing to throw someone under the bus, always on defense, always backing up. They acted exactly the same way when they had control of both houses.

It's way past time for conservatives to say, "ENOUGH. You're not going to use crap like this to bully us into silence again." WAY past time. This kind of crap is EXACTLY how the left managed to pull off a successful 40-year coup.

Spineless. This kind of behavior reminds me of that absurd apology by Trent Lott. If was a joke, for pities sake, and during a banquet no less.

Great post! You said it!!

We need Republican leaders who are not afraid of being called racists, who will NOT go defensive but instead be proactive and shout these scams from the rooftops.

What good is this wonderful article from American Thinker?? No one who has already internalized the N-word headlines will ever read it.

I wish someone did take that original reporter / paper to court.

Yep. And to make the Washington GOP look even more absurd, consider that most of us paid no attention at all the whole “flap” over this. We were focused on deathcare. Still are.
