Ah - so because I think there is a time and place for such humor, and the presidental podium represents neither, I'm a prig.
Apparently, you've never read some of my other posts on FR, and it's just easier to generalize my opinion on this matter away as that of a prig - even though my prior posts clearly indicate otherwise - than actually debate the issue.
Yes, you did.
It's.. umm.. pretty bad.
I look either like I've been de-boned and am flopping around while miracuously vertical, or I've got an electrical connection powering my horrifically erratic movements.
Think I'll sit still, the Dilantin shot may be a possibility.
Will you show me where the post you sent me to called Laura Bush any names??

LOL!
I'm going to sit till, as I may be zapped with Dilantin if I move too much.
The office of First Lady has never been occupied by a nun. They're real people, not religious figures. They have sex and make jokes, just like real people.
Would it be different for you if the same jokes were made in the same room at the same event by a paid comedian, where the first lady's role would have been to simply laugh and blush?
" sit till"
Woohoo!
Gimme the tiller!
*sigh*
Was supposed to be 'sit still'.
I don't waste my time "addressing" condescending pompous ponifications by people who think they're morally superior to the rest of us; that offended me when Hillary Clinton did it, and it sure as hell offends me when it's somebody talking about my party while claiming to be in the party.
Nah, you just flame them and move on. Which is my entire point.
Ya know, I think you're on to something with that statement.
Do you understand how this forum works? I'm free to post ANYTHING I want within the guidelines.
And you're free to comment on it.
Just because you don't LIKE or AGREE with what I say, doesn't make ME wrong.
I figured out what you meant.
I think we are going to start a charity for People With Darksheare's Syndrome.
(Henseforth known as "DS")
We can have banquets, and fundraisers, and sell rubber bracelets. (What's your favorite color?) YOU can be our poster-boy.
You just have to look waifish and type badly.
No, I just don't see where you get off thinking your morally superior than everyone else.
Ya think?
:-)
You know, you really have been a surprise to a lot of people in this discussion, me included.
In your 35,000 posts on this forum, you've certainly given as good as you've gotten, but for some reason you're really on your highhorse about this one, acting all indignant. You certainly have flamed your share along the way.
I guess this case is different because YOU brought YOUR WIFE into it and didn't like the reaction it got, huh?
Actually, yes, you are free to post whatever. And I'm free to point out that calling people names, even if it makes your buddies laugh and high five you, doesn't a debate make. It's difficult to take the rest of what you say seriously.
It has nothing to do with whether I agree or disagree with your premise. If, on the other hand you are just venting, carry on.

Thank you for that....I get so tired of seeing the trashing and bashing around here just because someone disagrees with you.
MM wrote an OPINION piece...it is okay to disagree with her but keep it civil. No need for name calling, snide remarks, etc.... (Not that you did that, of course).
Uh. Yeah. Thanks for stating the obvious. Do you think you're teaching me something here? We're talking about public behavior.
Would it be different for you if the same jokes were made in the same room at the same event by a paid comedian, where the first lady's role would have been to simply laugh and blush?
Mmmm. That's a toughie. (Not.) That would unquestionably be "different."

No wonder, the staff gives it a cold shower once in a while!
