You're missing a fundamental fact here, joe. There would be NO humor in Hillary, or Tipper, or Tah-RAY-zuh's saying they were 'desperate housewives'........because their marriages STINK.

The humor in this was that George and Laura have an incredible marriage (they go to bed at 9;00 TOGETHER), and the 'desperate' thing was ludicrous.

I will repeat, there was nothing immoral in what Laura said, and overreacting to this mild humor is playing into the hands of the left..........some of which are probably lurking and filled with 'glee' at some of the comments here.......

Despite the marriage situations of Hilliary, Tipper and Teresa, the milking the horse story would have been fodder for beastiality. The christian right would be having a field day. And freepers (even more than the few here) would have had pitchforks honed and torches lit.

Oh I agree, it's stuff I've heard before, but not from a first lady. Honestly, the Chippendale thing was cute. Milking a male horse was over the top. Desperate Housewive, likewise was cute too.

I guess one of the things that would trouble me about Desperate Housewives is that while conservatives point out the trash coming from Hollywood, a fair number, including the possibility of the first family watches such tripe. A surprisingly large nunber of watchers of such shows are the same folks who speak of our values spriraling down the toilet.

I'm not a prude and I can be as raunchy as the next guy. But I have cleaned up my act in the past several years. I guess my main problem is we denounce so much of this, but then turn around and defend it because it was "our" first lady who told the joke. Again, had this been one of the three above, it would have been fodder for how corrupt the morals are of the democratic party.
