As someone who has a son with Down Syndrome I don't get offended by that type of language. What does annoy me is, people geting annoyed on my behalf, about things that they think that I should be annoyed about...........like the use of language. I would be much happier if more funding went into helping with the services that are needed, rather than silly campagines like this. Actually this camapgine is retarded.........THERE

What "R" word? Or more correctly, which "R" word?There's a large US campaign against the r-word, it has a pledge website:
R-word.org - Change the conversation...
Sarah Palin is behind it:
Palin's campaign against the "R-word" hits snag with Limbaugh - Yahoo! News
Rush Limbaugh won't stand for the political correctness:
CNN Political Ticker: All politics, all the time Blog Archive - Limbaugh takes heat for using ‘R’ word - Blogs from CNN.com
Obama's chief of staff got caught saying it, so a high powered delegation went to the White House to make him apologize

The GOP has taken hits also:
FOXNews.com - Perry Campaign Apologizes for Using 'R' Word
What do people think of this campaign - and the general notion of political campaigns to cleanse the language ?

Right?
Rip?
Redact?
Release?
Retain?
Retina?
Rod?
Restaurant?
Rest-room?

So many words which start with "R", which to choose.

I thought the R word was ''recession'' at first.
In any case its a load of codswallop to ban a word . It will only make sincere people feel guilty by their own usage of legitimate words while the sociopaths just don't give a monkeys anyway and will find some other word or continue to use it anyway. Any word said in an appropriately jeering tone of voice can become the next word getting the same treatment.
