Comment:

No Donna I am not OK with that word. However, I subscribe to Reagans speak no evil of fellow Republicans which you evidently do not subscribe to in any manner or form. Perry had no control over something some ignoramus wrote on a rock. Do not give me that Obama Bull Shiet that Perry is not fit for office because the rock was not fully covered or the paint wore off over the years. I am tired of those individuals always among us who feint playing the race card. I believe that is why Obama is losing big time. Could it be that you, like some on this forum are nothing more than trolls sowing pretentious dissent against anyone who does not support your views.

niggard Look up niggard at Dictionary.com
mid-14c., nygart, of uncertain origin. The suffix suggests French origin (cf. -ard), but the root word is probably related to O.N. hnøggr “stingy,” from P.Gmc. *khnauwjaz (cf. Swed. njugg “close, careful,” Ger. genau “precise, exact”), and to O.E. hneaw “stingy, niggardly,” which did not survive in M.E.

niggardly Look up niggardly at Dictionary.com
1560s, from niggard + -ly (2).

If you look up the racist word it is from the 18th century, not the 16th.

English fail.

What’s wrong with the word “niggardly”?

I don’t think they will use it much on Cain, he’s not afraid of the word and probably heard it a lot as a young kid. I think if tried too often on him, someones going to get a reply that will embarrass them and not Cain...
