I can't believe people are still talking about this, much less are still upset and obsessed with it.

When we all gether on Judgement day why don't you ask the Lord why so many are upset with a Nation Leader engaging with off color or potty mouth jokes?

You can think your pretty cool.....some of us see the hand writting on the wall.....to be concern.....our boarder are open and these words speak

The General is sorry to be informed that the foolish and wicked practice of profane cursing and swearing, a vice hitherto little known in our American Army is growing into fashion. He hopes that the officers will, by example as well as influence, endeavor to check it and that both they and the men will reflect that we can little hope of the blessing of Heaven on our army if we insult it by our impiety and folly. Added to this it is a vice so mean and low without any temptation that every man of sense and character detests and despises it.
--George Washington

Now you may not believe in these words, but this nation lasted a long time because PROTOCOL was respected!

If that were true, the fundamentalist Islamic states would be the most powerful and long-lived on the planet.

You would have hated Ben Franklin.

And Washington and Jefferson and all the rest but especially you would have hated Franklin.

I repeat that no one can live up to your standards.
