Why is that offensive? Used on Springer and other trailor trash TV all the time. [Big Grin]

And as far as I am concerned, anyone who wishes to have open dialog with Iran is a Terroist.

[Confused] how is "baby's mama" offensive? I dont get why people get so sensitive about stuff, and blow things out of proportion around election time.

Just vote for who you like, and leave it at that, no reason to sweat the small stuff.

"To be fair, Michelle Obama referred to Barack as her "baby's daddy" on the night he won his Senate seat in 2004."

good find, I didnt even notice that when i skimmed the article... another reason why it shouldnt be made into a big deal

yeah!!!

damn the first amendment that allows people to say what ever they want even if you do not like what they are saying.

I mean, its like we are in America, people going around with free thoughts in their head.

but hey if Obamas baby momma has her way then we can get rid of that silly thing called the bill of rights.

Fire everyone at Fox News? More like "freak out over nothing" [Roll Eyes]

bah, I just think for a news source as respected as fox news they would be more careful about their choice of words. I would guess most women would be offended to be referred to as a baby momma if they are married.

I love free speech, but over the past year Fox News has issued so many apologies, its about time they start firing people. That is the basis of my statement. Not so much this incident.

I think they should be able to say just about what they want, within reason... people nowadays just seem to get all but hurt over little stuff that really doesnt matter at the end of the day. It's like crying over spilled milk to me.. who cares, ya know?

Good eye! of course they put that allllll the way at the bottom where nobody will even notice that line.

I think fox news is one of the better news stations these days [patriot]

I like Fox News as well, but they are fast becoming the enquirer of the major news outlets. Mis-quoting, faulty references, distasteful reporting. They seem to always be issuing apologies. At some point you become "sorry" if you keep saying "sorry".

But then again this is Cafords. Anyone can say anything here, until they call a coupe a highway or say Kimbo is the next great thing. I bet if they said Obama had a highway stang but it turned out to be a GT you guys would be all over it like it was the Hindenburg *sp tragedy.

Thas just FOX. They have some of the strangest news shit going on over there. I wouldn't be surprised over ANYTHING said or done @ FOX.

Fox news is a hardcore Republican network with a right wing agenda. They'll attack Obama anyway they can,even if it means casually insulting him and his family. I find BBC news to be the best in true news and not fabricated like fox.

who? "senator Obama bin laden"? [Razz]

All the media outlets are a bit biased. CNN has a known Democratic bias. Fox News does have a bias towards Republicans but the news is not fabricated. [Wink]

if we're using logic here, she would be his BABY'S mama. if she were his baby mama, she'd be an infant mother
