I believe that Peetster was commenting on Hillary, not the thread itself. If a thread is unacceptable, it will be closed. This thread is still open for discussion.
I don't think the remark was as severe as Lott's, but I think that she should watch her mouth and realize that it's better to be silent than to make a failed attempt at humor and end up insulting someone's heritage. I really don't know what she was trying to do, I don't see any way it could have been made funny. The voters will just have to decide whether it was severe enough to cause them to vote her out. In such a tense international situation (war on terror) that is percieved by many abroad to be partially race-based, we have to make sure that our leaders don't screw up and diminish our country' already suffering image.
