Uh oh. You wrote the "T" word. Of course now every kook on this thread will accuse you of name calling.

and so it goes......

"The horse joke was about not being able to tell the difference between a HORSE and a COW, not an udder and a penis."

That was sweet, TM. Laura is truly a gracious, charitable person and I've got to believe she interpreted the joke exactly as you did..

Ya'll lighten up. This is OUR lovely first lady you're chastising. I can't believe this thread..

Good post, Charles.

It's been explained and explained to the "holier than thou" contingent and they are just too offended to get it:

1) It was a ROAST!

2) The horse joke had nothing sexual about it. It was a "city slicker/country folk" joke.

3) By making these jokes, Mrs. Bush was actually poking fun at the media, by playing into their stereotypes of Republicans.

I'd bet you $100.00 that none of them have even seen Desperate Housewives. It's a soap opera, no more, no less. I wouldn't let kids watch, but then I wouldn't let them watch a show like 24, either. Desperate Housewives is entertaining because these are fictional characters. Take it or leave it, but the joke is in the absurdity of it all, that and the hiliarious mental picture of a bunch of high profile Republicans and Supreme Court justices at a Chippendales show!

It's usually the most hypocritical that see a sexual element in something that most normal people do not! I'd be embarassed to post that I thought that joke was about horse masturbation. Michelle Malking made a fool of herself with that comment!

Look at the marriage threads populated with men from their early 20's to their mid 50's sharing a common bond: Absolute hatred of women. These folks are more angry than they are conservative.

Oh, thank you, thank you--I was afraid I was the only one who thought so, and it was making me crazy to hear myself say "misogynist!"

***The ones who blackmail the GOP every election?***

WHOA!! Good one and right on the money. Since there is no way ever that a Pat Buchanan will be elected Prez - the extreme right want to see themselves as Puppet Masters of the GOP.

I'm 21, not 83.

In the words of the law professor in The Paper Chase, you are a young skull full of mush.

You will no doubt be pleased to know that the illustrious Al Gore shares your concerns about the "eeeeeeeeeeevil conservative Christians". Please check this post: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1396490/posts.

Notice, that both you and I communicated the usage of the f-word without actually spelling it out. Malkin could have done the same since she is so easily offended by what the first lady did. She didn't.

Displaying the way that repulsive people are repulsive is an entirely different matter than the shock at hearing something totally unexpected coming forth from a icon of classiness.

Displaying the f-word spelled out three times as an example of how people are repulsive(there's a lot more she displayed) and telling a dirty joke -- sure there are some differences. But you miss the point.

You don't think that the president and Laura Bush receive hate mail with the f-word? What about Rush Limbaugh? What about FOX news? I don't see them publicly and graphically displaying their obscene mail with all of the vulgarities spelled out. How cheap is that? How vulgar is that? You don't think their's another way to make that point without coming down to the level of the person who sent the e-mail? If they wanted to communicate that they received such obscene hate mail do you think that they would simply say that they received hate mail with obscene words in it or do you think that they would graphically display the hate mail on their website for all the world to see?

Last week I received an X rated pop-up on my computer screen. Using your logic, it would be perfectly okay to post that picture here when bringing the subject up. What Malkin did was equivalent to what Laura Bush did and maybe even worse in that aspect.

You don't get that do you? Or are you a Malkin-bot who feels that she can do no wrong? For your benefit I'll assume you are the Malkin-bot and not a -- dunce!

That's rich coming from one who has made several digs at the owner of this forum on this thread "behind his back"..

I was a complete supporter of Terry's But this BS about swooping in and snatching her is a load of crap FGS .. he flew back to DC to sign the Bill and they claim he didn't do anything to help her??? Can You See Me Rolling My Eyes????

Agreed, agreed, agreed--and I went to Tallahassee to lobby the State Senate. At one point, I asked (with much hyperbole) why they didn't do an Elian-style grab--then I realized people actually believed he should! I still don't understand the Bush-bashing over that.

Absence of teats does not equal masturbation, and absence of humor does not equal moral superiority.

FGS, where were you 20 threads ago?

You have it down pat in a nutshell!
