28. Question: Can we use crude, left-wing insults but not right-wing ones?
Edited on Mon Nov-15-10 04:46 PM by Ian David
Yeah, right-wingers are likely to say "Fuck Harry Reid."

However, I doubt they'd use MY nickname for him, which is "Dickless Harry."

Because right-wingers somehow think that Harry Reid is some sort of far-left bullying bogeyman, while IMHO, he's an ineffectual wishy-washy coward who hides under his desk at the sound of the word "filibuster."

Yes, it's a crude insult-- but it's one that right-wingers would never use for him.

So, can I keep calling him Dickless Harry?
