The resignation should be for a way of thinking that has no place in politics.

First: I wonder who wrote that apology for Rusty? Second: Why do so many people think this is funny? Third: Thanks, Will for outing a nasty mouth Republican. Funny however, since you hang out with that crowd.

The comment shows the contempt that South Carolina politicians have for their constituents, their upper leaders, and the entire country.
Nothing matters but South Carolina pols. They are infinite in wisdom, infinite in cash, infinite in constituent criticism.

This comment represents how all SC pols feel about all the people they ” represent”…. you know, We the People, red and yellow, black and white.

I’m totally amazed and saddened by this whole thing. Have we really become this hyper sensitive that a man (whether good, bad, or in between) must lose his job over a stupid comment? I was reading the other day about how black soccer players in Europe have to endure actual monkey noises throughout their games. Here in America, land of the not free, home of the PC facists, a man’s semi-private thought gets into the wrong bloger’s hands and now he’s out of a job. Incredible. I often wonder if black people, real black people, not just the NAACP opportunists, even care about this kind of stuff. I honestly think if I were black I would not care so much about what some 50+ year old cracker thinks.

Wake up folks, crucifying this guy for making a dumb mistake is not going to bring this world closer together. How about try to forgive your fellow man and move the hell on with your life for a change. Slow freaking news day I guess. One day some bad 9-11 type stuff is going to go down and we will all pine for those crazy old days when we used to call each other monkeys and honkeys.

Everyone originated from Africa. If you read your history—you’d know this Brandon!
