Sununu has made a lot of offensive comments this year, starting around June (and perhaps before). His comments about Powell are recent, but perhaps not even the most offensive.

YES! Galahs! Now I can sound smarter. And insult people. Score! And they are a noisy, jittery bunch.
Going to be a hot one.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Part of what that post says is "A message for you. This is no longer about an election. It is about letting our voices be heard and at least being able to say we tried to save America from becoming European America."
I thought they'd been complaining about it stopping being European America. Pretty sure I've seen complaints about it becoming African America and Central American America.

I assume that's code for socialized medicine (which is code for "not letting poor people just die when they get pneumonia").

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I really feel like people who don't like it here should go back where they came from.

Quick confab with my mom: she's making dad see a dr when they get back cause she doesn't like the changes she's been seeing, which she tried to explain away before but she's seeing it's so not explainawayable. So. Good? But also worrying.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I thought people came here to escape socialism. Wasn't the Revolutinary War fought to end the tyranny of Karl Marx?
