Nice. Even nicer was the way his handlers tripped over themselves to explain it. There was no real need to; unless of course you have in the back of your mind the lambasting others would have gotten from you for issuing so stupid a comment.

Bingo. Politics as usual - do as I say, not as I do. People love to point this out in the GOP but when it comes to the Dems, it seems like they get a lot of leeway. Hypocrisy and double standards are everywhere. But the bigger lesson here is that PC culture still has a long way to go as the leader of the Democratic party - the party of the down trodden and underprivileged - has demonstrated. Or could it be that it's a farce? That a bit of snarkiness is part of human nature and that we shouldn't be so sensitive? Only time can tell.

It's obvious. Bowling is racist.

No shit. I doubt he could make a Special Olympics team.
