    I'm thinking of going camping this weekend ~ perhaps I should tie up some faggots for burning.

    That's quite possibly the funniest thing I've seen on this website. Right up there with Clutch's Ref Website. :D

    That is giving in to political correctness. It destroys are language, makes lieterature such as Twain seem racist, when it is shining example against that kind of thing, and the end promotes censorship.

    The better thing to do would be to educate the general public on the use of the phrase rather than give in, and abandon anything.

    Political correctness must be stopped. If we want a war on a concept I would happily support one against political correctness.

    Did I read someone in here say they believe coded messages are sent?

    I like Dan Brown's books also but come on.

    state rights == segregation is good
    strict constitutionalist == school prayer is constitutional
