To Retard Or Not To Retard

     Many people don't know that, after I retired from the Navy, I had a variety of jobs.  One of which was a Personal Care Assistant in a high school Life Skills class.  The boy whose education I supervised was classified as "mentally retarded."

    When I learned that was how he was designated, I thought it odd.  It wasn't all that long ago, but I thought the term "retarded" was no longer in wide use.  The second year I was assigned to him he was redesignated as one with an "intellectual disability."  He hadn't changed; he was still the nicest person I had ever met.  But, he was no longer labeled "mentally retarded."  Nothing was different except a word which was deemed an anachronism.

When he graduated high school, I found work elsewhere.

    Whatever.

    Fast forward to recently.  Looks like the state run by "Tampon Tim" is being investigated by the Feds for funneling a BILLION taxpayer dollars overseas.  My, my, my.  Walz, et.al., certainly have some 'splainin' to do about how their hands got caught in a Somalian cookie jar.

"That's GOVERNOR Tampon Tim."

    Donald Trump, being Donald Trump, can't resist the urge to attack the prancing Minnesota imbecile.  Due in large part that he IS a imbecile who couldn't lead ants to a picnic, Trump has labeled him "retarded."  Predictably, the Left is losing their shit over the fact that Trump is using the "r" word (I refuse to call it that; it's "retard," thank you very much.).

    Never mind the fact that the batshit crazy wing of the Democratic Party have no problem using terms like "Nazi," "fascist," and "Gestapo."

Or putting a bullet in the neck of someone with whom they disagree

    Now I'm not a big fan of our leaders resorting to infantile name-calling (and is one of the reasons I did not vote for Trump), but I laugh nonetheless at the discomfiture of these clowns.

    

Mind you, I'll continue to do so. 
But, I'm not an elected leader, you understand.

    Walz can dish it out, but he can't take it.

    Besides, no one uses "retarded" anymore to honestly describe someone with intellectual disabilities (my point at the beginning of this post).  Like "queer" and "gay," the meaning of the word has changed from its original meaning.

"We can still don our gay apparel, though."

  It now means someone with no functioning gray matter.  Someone who is a clown who has no business being anywhere near the reins of power.  Or Jasmine Crockett.

    Or someone who thinks tampon machines belong in boys bathrooms.

    Give me a fucking break, Governor Retard.

    If the shoe fits, smack yourself in the knucklehead with it.
