But I've seen people criticized for using that word. I know the definition of the word and I'm not offended, but I do know if someone else said it, it would be headline news .
March 1, 20179 yr Author Beshear came across kind of vanilla to me. The fact he acted like he worked across the aisle or left office with a consensus made me laugh. The only reason he won the last term is because the GOP put an anti gambling candidate on the platform.

The only reason he won the last term is because the GOP put an anti gambling candidate on the platform. Or, it could be because David Williams is one of the most unlikable politicians in Ky history, with Lt. Gov. candidate that was toxic even though he was on "scholarship for life."

Additionally, several of my Police Officer Facebook Friends are blasting him over the State Pension System not being funded properly under his watch. Beshear certainly has the talking part done.

March 1, 20179 yr Is this serious? I am a bit puzzled by your point on Beshear using the word renege. You seem to have a different understanding of the word than I do. I have never heard any racial implication with that word. It is a Latin based word. Are you saying that the word is racist?
