As opposed to questioning the "obscure" I would question the use of your term "Avant Retard" So who bares the brunt of that half wit joke?
The word "retard" is no joke.
Bennet's 'retard' remarks are offensive to a huge section of our society - equally as grim as the use of the 'n' word and BB's Shilpagate. Hate crimes against people with disabilities are on the increase, and sadly Bennett seems to think it funny to make such low level jabs. No wonder she questions the "obscure"
