Forgive *this* expression: You're a moron!

Nina, Nina, Nina. National Public Radio's contribution to the national discourse, Nina Totenberg, said something very naughty the other day. It was so naughty, that Nina had to ask viewers to forgive her for what she uttered. What was the word for which she asked forgiveness?

Christmas

Take a look:



This is from the same woman who once expressed her hope that the late Senator Jesse Helms and/or his grandchildren would contract AIDS. I don't remember her ever asking for our forgiveness for saying that!

And remember: your taxes pay her salary.
