on air last week, conservative talker, Neal Boortz in ATL, called US Rep. Cynthia McKinney a "ghetto slut" and said other disparaging things about her:
Boortz: Rep. McKinney "looks like a ghetto slut"
On the March 31 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio program, Neal Boortz said that Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) "looks like a ghetto slut." Boortz was commenting on a March 29 incident in which McKinney allegedly struck a police officer at a Capitol Hill security checkpoint. Boortz said that McKinney's "new hair-do" makes her look "like a ghetto slut," like "an explosion at a Brillo pad factory," like "Tina Turner peeing on an electric fence," and like "a shih tzu." McKinney is the first African-American woman elected to Congress from Georgia.

for some reason, he, Rush Limbaugh (he called the alleged rape victim from the Duke Lacrosse scandal a "hoe") and other conservatives feel they can say whatever they want w/no repercussions. yes, there is Freedom of Speech but really it isn't. talk like this does lend itself to consequences. for Neal Boortz in particular, i hope it means firing but i'm not holding my breath...
