CONCORD, N.H. -- Democrats are criticizing as "sexist" and "repugnant" Republican Gov. Craig Benson's St. Patrick's Day Power Point presentation at two breakfasts that poked fun at local politicians.

Benson's presentation borrowed scenes from "Jackass: The Movie," which features crude stunts, foul language and nudity; and clips from the Comedy Central Network.

The Democrats should have loved "Jackass." After all it describes them to a T. As for the humor about women, after Monica, hey Governor Craig Benson's clips showed at the St. Patrick's Day dinner were tame. Nothing salacious there. Then again considering their presidential candidate employs four letter swear words with some regularity, its amusing to find Democrats being offended by vulgar language!

"The whole point of a roast is to make people laugh," he said.

Apparently, the whole point is to make a laughing-stock of Republicans. Any jokes that poke fun at Democrats would be considered in extremely bad taste.

Emma Goldman was an Anarchist. She visited Bolshevik Russia expecting to be pleased with what she saw. But she wasn't pleased at all. She famously remarked, "If I can't dance, I don't want your revolution."

The Democrat Revolution has no sense of humor. But ask them about their voting records, and watch them dance!

Oh, I see the problem. Democrats are retarded and don't know what a "roast" is.
