In the week after First Lady Laura Bush's comedy routine at the White House press corps annual Correspondent's dinner, the uptight right is still Quaking.
Standing steadfast on their principle, the Upstanding withstood allegations that they were grandstanding about the first lady's comments. "Nonsense! We stand for something! Sorry if that doesn't sit well with you!" Their principle had only this to say: "uuuunnnnnnghh".
Though her routine was applauded by most, the unbothered majority was once more identifiable mostly by their clashing contrast with the outer fringes. Asked how they felt about being called a fringe group, the SpokesMan of "Something Very Wrong with That" Bart Hetero said "We don't wear fringe! Fringe is gay. This perversion is clearly a ploy of the homosexual fashion lobby."
The clergy at Our Lady of Perpetually Bunched Panties would say only that they were very uncomfortable with the whole thing.
United Church of the Righteously Indignant issued a strong statement against the content of the first lady's speech shortly before it began. "We are certain this event will be an outrage. Self-deprecating is clearly a sinful and immoral act."
Several members of the Church of the Delicate Sensibilities were treated for the vapors following the routine, and have been advised by their physicians not to comment.
The Depravity Archivists Council, a nonprofit group dedicated to fully exposing scantily clad innuendo in a world full of camouflaged nuance, has released an illustrated bulletin that explains in graphic detail the obscenity of the first lady's routine for those who don't grasp the full range of possible perverted interpretations.
Project Above It All refused to give an interview, but issued a statement: "None of us watched it. We don't participate in anything. We're boycotting." Asked to clarify what all they are boycotting, they simply answered "Well, as of now, you".
Speaking for the church of Most Cleansing Suffering, Sandy Vagina said "I guess what most chaffs me is that the first lady has further legitimized this idea that life is supposed to be fun".
It was just a bit of fun....
LOL - too funny- you should send this in to a newspaper or magazine
Well, I for one, will NEVER vote Republican again as long as I live. In fact, I am going to change my voter registration to DEMOCRAT immediately because of this vile and filthy joke, told by that horrible woman, Laura Bush./ Holier-than-thou FReeper logic
Very out of character for the usually graceful First Lady.
Really? I haven't heard that!
BWAHAHAHAHA!
Can I steal this and post it on my blog (with credit to you of course)?
Absolutely :~D
Humor Ping!!!!
;-)
I'm with you. I don't know why its such a big deal to make a simple perfectly sober point that the joke was just in bad taste. The president grabbin' horse weiner just isn't funny and its certainly beneath the first lady. Leave this stuff to Howard Stern.
I'm not drooling with rage, I just think it's not "oversensitive" to say the joke was in poor taste.
"Milking the horse" wasn't the problem. The problem was that our First Lady mentioned "Desperate Housewives" and Chippendales in any context other than condemnation.
I thought it was crass and over the line when I read about in on FR, but I heard the actual audio in context the other day, and it was totally harmless. As with most jokes, the delivery plays a crucial part.
"Our Lady of Perpetually Bunched Panties"
That sums it up! LOL
Was it a male horse? Seriesly, though, I have read here on FR that the Prius is now the "gay" car. Cool that we are the arbiters of taste! Next thing you know, we'll read that the First Lady bets at the race track. Which also has, horrors, horses. Wonder who she has money on for the Derby?
LOL!
Thanks for the Friday afternoon pick-me-up.
Clearly some still don't get it.
LOL, thought of you.
I almost had to clean the keyboard.
