You're the vulgarian, you fuck.*

Rep. Tom "I am hardly preoccupied with political correctness" Tancredo on Wolf Blitzer Reports.
WOLF BLITZER: [O]ne congressman offers his own brand of deterrence. If Islamic terrorists launch a massive attack against the United States, should the U.S. retaliate against Muslim holy sites?

REP. TOM TANCREDO (R), COLORADO: Sometimes we need to say things that need to be said.

JAMES ZOGBY, ARAB-AMERICAN INSTITUTE: Like bombing Mecca?

TANCREDO: I didn't say to bomb Mecca. You know, you're the problem. You actually create the problem when you say it that way. I didn't say to do it. I said that we may use that as a threat.
Dude, it's on tape, and the radio station has made it available for downloading. And my, aren't Republicans really into "parsing" all of a sudden.
