Obama allegedly called Americans "slugs" on CBS open mic tape

[dellinger63]

I believe he called some federal workers 'slugs', heard it about a week ago?

I agreed.

If he said that all American workers, in general, were "slugs", that would be bad.
If he was referring to a select group of people as slugs, when they just might be, it's no biggie.

Well, if we had the tape, we would know. There is a lot of uncertainty about what context the word "slugs" was used in.

I agree, I'd like the tape released. I always love it when politicians are caught off guard, or unscripted. Then, one can tell a whole lot more about them
