Another bully in politics with no observable boundaries when it comes to those they target as the enemy.

Just another crude ignorant bigot, who works for a bigot.

Mr. Turner also made a crude joke about the Japanese devastation. Some people just absolutely lack any sort of awareness or class. Sort of pity this person for how pathetic he is.

Gee, what a shock, Barbour won’t diavow a Klansman who may appear on Mississippi liscense plants because he’s a racist, and he’s also a bigot against the GLBT community.
