Enough of the correctness crap. I'm even inclined to defend my Prez Barry for his comments on the Leno Show.

Heck, even some of my best friends are retards.

Raising a Down's Syndrome child is a lifetime commitment of love and sacrifice. Joking about it in any way, shape or form is across the line.

I think the issue is really intent. If you believe the intent was to make fun, then you are reading well beyond what is written. People who practice Political Correctness in fact make the problems for themselves.

People who mock "political correctness" have never had to comfort a child who's been beaten up because he's a "retard".

Judge a person by what you find in their heart and by their deeds. Not what one wishes to take away, from what in large measure, is an irreverent sport's board.

Look for what a person does when no one is watching, not from a Funk & Wagnall, or in today's world, a teleprompter (sic).
