bugger the right are dumb.

A university has made a suggestion. It will probably be ignored. Who cares? It's not like an official statement has been released by government outlawing use of a word. Which never happens, but you all cry as if it does

I bet there was a time that doctors used the word 'retarded'. English changes all the time. *shrug*

It's proposed because it's what's in their stupid heads.

Two things America does not need more of: obesity and firearms.

Obesity

It is primarily an issue for Fat people. It is very difficult for a lot of people to control their weight.

I don't believe that it is always the persons fault. Some are genetically inclined to very easily carry additional weight.

In a lot of cases it could always be worse, imagine it the chubby person was also a conservative.

Is this just another case of the right always needing someone to blame ?

Is it the unemployed' s turn next week or it it homosexuals? It cant be Transgender again - that was last week.

if you cant control what goes in your mouth, you really have zero concept of personal responsibility (a hateful concept to the leftie intellectual)

It's fascinating to me how little right understand human biology. I understand you've never seen a live vagina, but surely you know people who eat food?
