New York Rep. Carolyn Maloney, a Democrat, apologized Monday for using the N word in a recent interview while recounting a phone call she had received.

"I apologize for having repeated a word I find disgusting," Maloney said in a statement. "It's no excuse but I was so caught up in relaying the story exactly as it was told to me that, in doing so, I repeated a word that should never be repeated."

"I apologize for having repeated a word I find disgusting," Maloney

If she found it so disgusting she would've tripped up over its use and it wouldn't have so naturally rolled off her tongue.

No need to apologize, Congresswoman Maloney. After all, you're a Democrat.

which means that your free lifetime pass cannot be revoked ...

Hmmm. I am Cajun class - but was told early in life by my Catholic parents that if the N-word ever emerged from my lips, there would be permanent damage. It has not, nor will it ever.

Now, looking at our upper class (or is that upper *ss) east coast libs, it’s a horse of a different color, not?

Not to defend a democrat, but she was quoting someone else.

Not sure how that is a problem.

Its funny that there is no coverage of this. If a republican had said it, there would be outrage and protests. Al and Jesse would be marching.

lets see,

There is the N,F,B,and others. so what is the first thing that comes to mind when someone uses a sentence with “x word” in it?

Right,the word itself - so whats the difference?

To say “Macaca” is a political death sentence.

It just goes to prove how DEMONCRATS are racists.

Do as I say, not as I do (say).

It was a freudian slip.

Maloney is a Numbskull...there, I used an “N” word to describe her.

I use the word when appropriate and will not apologize to anyone.
