“Pansy.”

By Andrew Belonsky April 29, 2008 at 10:04am · 8 comments

“Homo-loving” Hillary Clinton didn’t object when North Carolina Governor Mike Easley endorsed her and remarked, “[Clinton]makes Rocky Balboa look like a pansy.” Raise your hand if you were called a “pansy” in grade school. [TSG]

    what did you expect from this creature?

    we know from PA that she is a church and gun LOVER.

    so in north carolina she is now a homophobe.

    i cannot wait for puerto rico, when she will finally tell us that her father is not her biological father she was adopted from a latin family.

    I was never called a pansy in grade school, but I called a few straight boys that.

    Oh please, this is the silliest thing I’ve ever heard someone WORK to get offended about. Let’s give both candidates some rest about stupid stuff like this.

    I totally agree with Kid A. Why must we analyze every word people say and try to make drama where there is none?

    The Queertys probably just hate Easley because he didn’t step in to save Mike Nifong from going to jail for a day.

    I would have never thought that was offensive if you didn’t call it offensive. I still don’t think there’s anything wrong with it… and yes, I’m gay.
