OH 'BOY'...
Kentucky congressman Geoff Davis has had to issue an apology after he compared Barack Obama and his message for change similar to a 'snake oil salesman.'
However, what caused most offence was his use of the term, "boy" when referring to Obama."'I'm going to tell you something: That boy's finger does not need to be on the button,' Davis said. 'He could not make a decision in that simulation that related to a nuclear threat to this country.'"
For the record, Geoff Davis is 49 and Barack Obama is 45.On Saturday night I gave a speech in which I used a poor choice of words when discussing the national security policy positions of the Presidential candidates. I was quoted as saying "That boy's finger does not need to be on the button."
My poor choice of words is regrettable and was in no way meant to impugn you or your integrity. I offer my sincere apology to you and ask for your forgiveness.
At least he has had the good grace to apologise, we can grant him that.
