Bob Burns calls budget deficit a ‘tar baby’</a><br><br><i>- Arizona State Senate President Bob Burns is facing criticism for referring to <b>the state’s budget situation as a “tar baby.”</b><br><br>Burns, R-Peoria, used the term Thursday to describe the state’s large deficits during a speech before the Arizona Chamber of Commerce & Industry. The state faces a shortfall of as much as $4.5 billion for the current and next fiscal years.<br><br>Over the years, the term “tar baby” has had racial connotations with some concerns that is a derogatory name for blacks.<br><br>“It’s an embarrassment to Arizona that the president of our Senate would use such an ugly term, one that is so universally recognized as derogatory and hurtful,” said Emily DeRose, communications director for the Arizona Democratic Party.<br><br>The term originates from Joel Chandler Harris’ 19th century “Uncle Remus” and “Br’er Rabbit” books. The tar baby character in those Southern folklore stories was a doll made of tar and turpentine.</i><br><br>No EXCUSES!!  He KNEW what he was sayin\'!   Did anyone COMPLAIN DURING that SESSION??

"We are sure you will ultimately achieve your dream (of) making the United States of America a full partner in a community of nations committed to peace and prosperity for all."<br><br>Mandela\'s letter was the continuation of a unique dialogue with Obama, who last summer celebrated South African\'s 90th birthday by embracing his faith that "we do not have to accept the world as it is."<br><br>"When I visited South Africa a few years ago," Obama said in a video message to Mandela in July. "I had a chance to go to Robben Island and stand in your cell, and I reflected on your courage, your foresight and conviction, and on your fundamental belief that we do not have to accept the world as it is; that we can remake the world as it should be."<br><br><b>Imagine the possibility that Mandela might make one more trip to Washington, this coming January, to join in the celebration of the American Mandela moment that will be realized when Obama is inaugurated.</b> </i>  <br><br>   ****TEARS****      ****SMILIN\' ****</div>\
