Brit Hume called former Senator John Glenn a “partisan—spearchucker” to describe his role in a Fred Thompson investigation back in his old Senate days on FOX News Sunday.
Video and transcript, of course, at Crooks and Liars.
John Amato looked “spearchucker” up in the urban dictionary: “A derogatory phrase for a black male used in reference to his primitive abilities to hunt animals with a long sharpened object.”
Earlier today, I defended a Republican, namely the leader of the GOP in Arkansas. This time, however, I have no intention of doing so. This was a racial slur and Brit Hume should be held accountable for using it on national television.
