My error - the word is in Chance’s thread title.
And for what it’s worth, the first time I heard the term “swarthy” was just after the September 11 attacks, when Ann Coulter declared that we should pay closer attention to “swarthy males.” My thread title was a reference to that distinctively neanderthal sentiment revived by Miss Kill-their-leaders-and-convert-them-to-Christianity Coulter. For what it’s worth.
No idea what this means - it is beyond obvious that this was Bunning’s intent, but that was not the subject of this thread. In fact I did note in previous posts that he intended a jab at his opponent, but on the off chance that there is really some confusion about this: here’s a statement for you:
**The fairly obvious intent of the alleged joke was to compare Mongiardo to a mass murderer/tyrant.

What a waste it is to lose one’s mind, or not to have a mind.
