    @ artarat

    "Eskimo" is considered a slur... He is part Inuit - I can see it in his face, and in the face of his children... It's subtle, but it's there.

    I could care less about the "First Dude" or "First Dud" whatever you want to call him. Keep these people away from teh levers of power or we are all going to be very sorry.
