GOP Leader Comfortable With Term "Tar Baby"

  • What in THE hell is this world coming to when you can't toss around a highly-charged, racially derogative term without the whole Internet going crazy about it? That's a question Rep. Tom Davis (R-VA) must be asking himself now that reporters have noticed his use of "the term 'tar baby' in a paragraph about Obama and immigration" in a recent memo. It's getting harder and harder to have your ignorance go unchecked these days.
