I know what "adios" means but what the heck does "mofo" mean?

[Red Badger]

same as MF'er.....

[ruiner]

MOFO= Mother F%$ker

Its really just a slang joke generally said in jest.

[Buck W.]

He should tearfully apologize in about a week.

[SMARTY]

WHAT!??

[kentj]

Let's see hmmm??? he was talking to a reporter - oh well the truth hurts.

[Ditter]

Oh big deal, even this grandma uses street terms in jest occasionally.

[Allegra]

I guess we can expect to hear this clip on Perry's opponents' commercials in the next gubernatorial campaign.

Like the "Can we just move on down the road?" clip we saw over and over again in the last one.

If you're a little old lady from Dubuque, you don't want to know. Trust me.
Although within a certain underclass it is as common as salt and a term of endearment.

[kezekiel]

I apologize if you misinterpreted what I said because I didn't phrase it as well as I could have and you took offense. How's that for an apology?

[MissAmericanPie]

Texans cuss from the cradle, I don't care what he says or how many cuss words he uses to relate a point, the only important question is, what has he done for us lately?

[Publius6961]

If this was a typical reporter, it was a waste of too mild a term. How else do you deal with a blow-dried, arrogant, smarmy dumb-as-rocks dork?

[joebuck]

Big deal. I remember Clinton tossing the word Snafu around during his administration. Does the media know what the word "Snafu" is street slang for?

[Enterprise]

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

[cubreporter]

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!

[nevergore]

OMG...a governor actually cusses.....

Stop the presses.....does he drink too?

Oooooooh the humanity....

NeverGore :^)

[linkinpunk]

what the heck does "mofo" mean?

"Missouri Foal"- a colt or filly born in MO.

[Deguello]

Perry has been sticking his foot into his mouth a lot in the past two weeks.

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.

[Allegra]

Kind of reminds me of when GWB got busted calling Adam Clymer a "major league @sshole" during his 2000 campaign.

Peronally, I thought it was hilarious.

And true.

[johnb838]

gaaaaaassssssp! Texas has a WHOREHOUSE in it!

I'm really getting to like Governor Rick again.

[Dan from Michigan]

Mofo? I thought they said it was vulgar slang.

I expected something like "I'm gonna kick John Engler's big fat ass" which is what Geoffrey Fieger said before getting his butt kicked in the election.
