how much does the GOP wish to be associated with the word 'stupidity'?

And Obama's speech at Selma did nothing to help heal the racial dived.

spell check is your friend, and it was a GREAT speech, frankly. Sorry you didn't approve, and speeches don't do much past make thinking people think about things. King's did, Obama's did, but you might be out of that demographic upon which there would be the desired effect.

Maybe they think that by banning those words, climate change will magically go away.

Neither did that police shooting of yet another unarmed black teen in Wisconsin either.

"Illegal alien" has been banned. That was a policy decision. And it drives the non-enforcement of laws the party's leader swore to uphold.
It makes it hard to enforce the law when the illegal component and the foreigner component are removed and replaced with 'undocumented worker'.
It makes a change in designation from someone entering from outside the country, who is here illegally...as in broke out laws to enter....and transforms them into 'someone who has misplaced, or lacks the 'documents' that would show they are where they are allowed to be.
So, welcome, to familiar territory....

I think the travesty regarding that video is focusing on the video, instead of the response to it.
