Are you kidding me people, read the article. It says it is alright to say the N word but not alright to say words or phrases like Marriage or Family values for the fear it might offend someone.

I don't think that World Nuts Daily is an objective ore reliable source. Can you find this story elsewhere?

wiccantexan -

You're definitely right, as is easily viewable simply by going to the front page and looking at the stories (and the "special offers") they're into.

This makes the reading matter sold at the supermarket checkout stands look almost respectable.
