I wouldn't have hit the button on that one.  The
remark is certainly offensive, but none of the words
are the ones that can get a station in trouble. 
Romney is a public figure and he is Mormon and
pro-choice.  I don't think that makes him a
baby-killer, but such remarks are part of the rough
and tumble of politics.  I also think they work
against those who say such things.
