...and the foot-in-mouth comments continue

I sure hope my children never sit around with Republicans for too long. They can learn all about 'beating wives' and nominees with 'tans.'

Conservative activist Grover Norquist dropped by The Los Angeles Times' Washington bureau and decided a classy and  appropriate way to convey his opposition to the liberal positions of Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, was to call the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee "John Kerry with a tan."

It's like hanging out too long with those members of your family that are just NOT PC, eventually you have to explain "no no sweetie, we don't say that in our house, and you know Uncle Grover is nuts."

I know what you mean. I've taken a deep breath and addressed my FIL's racism directly because I don't want my kids thinking it's acceptable. The "Grandpa is just a little old and senile" isn't enough any more.
