Very out of character for the usually graceful First Lady.
Really? I haven't heard that!
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.
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.
Laura Bush's character is certainly questionable. I understand, for example, that she does in fact drink milk (albeit cow's milk) and that she's even had sex with her husband. We need to run that hussie out of DC on a rail, then tar and feather the brazen bitch!
