Laura Bush's stand-up routine was a bit "cheeky" at times but the crowd she delivered it to the average age had to be close to 55 with no kid's present.

She walked to the edge but didn't cross....

Malkin is just nit-picking on this issue....she is right about South Park, it is vulgar at times but that is part of it's appeal, it's non-PC.....

NeverGore :^)

I like Michelle but she's treading a little too close to the democrat style whine with this one.

At TIMES?

Those "times" would be whenever it's actually on the air.
And perhaps others, I'm not sure.

I agree with her.

I watched "South Park" a couple of times and it can be funny but it is just a little too raunchy for me.

I have never heard a dirty word from either of my parents and am happy to be able to say that.

A few years ago, she would have been well over the line. Where will the line be in five more years? That's the point - as the liberals continue their effots to make the previously unacceptable first acceptable and then a right, do we move just behind them into what was once forbidden frontier? Or do we stand where we are so that the journey back some day won't be so far?

In other words, she merely dipped her toes into the muck.

Maybe that'll be enough to convince the RINO centrists and libs she's not the prude they think she is./sarc

It's not the vulgarity of Southpark that's appealing (thought it's damned funny) it's that willingness to stick the knife all the way in and twist, not let them get away in the forlorn hope that maybe this time they will agree to have a new tone and a new dialogue (which they plead for when we have our boot on their neck).

Agreed. I thought she did an excellent job of delivering the monologue. Her timimg was excellent. I really laughed through the whole thing.

I am sincerely baffled by the fuss over Laura Bush's remarks. From what I have read, they were G-rated complaints about how GWB goes to bed too early. Freepers, what am I missing?!

While they might have set the "bleeping" record the show was actually about the virtues of NOT swearing. I find the show to be the funniest thing I've seen since the SNL of the 70's. If my sense of humor offends anyone I'm not sorry, its a free country and I'll gut anybody like a fish to keep it that way.
