CLARINGTON, Ohio -- In the midst of a heated general election cycle, Ohio's Democratic Party chairman is admitting he used some "colorful language" during a political event in Monroe County Monday night.

As the United Steelworkers union was announcing its endorsement for a number of Ohio Democrats, including Gov. Ted Strickland, Chris Redfern used a variation of the F-word to describe opponents to his party's agenda.

A NEWS9 reporting crew was invited into the union hall in Clarington for the endorsement announcement, and the camera was rolling as Redfern leveled the expletive at critics in the Tea Party, who, in his words, believe health care is a privilege, not a right.

"If your kids are going to graduate from college, now he or she gets health care, your heath care, while he or she looks for a new job," Redfern said. "It's in the very base terms we win these arguments. Every time one of these (expletive deleted) says, excuse my language..."

6. I have one quibble with your subject line....

It's the DemocraTIC Chair, not DemoCRAT! The only reason why I bring this up is because the righties love to use the prejorative DEMOCRAT with emphasis on the suffix. For far too long we've allowed them to get away with it and must stop that. To his credit, Tweety is the only one who corrects them each and every time they do it on his show. More of us need to be doing it.

Other that that, it's so refreshing to see Democrats stand up to this foolish teabagging crap!!

Rock on!!! :toast:
