“What is wrong with the GOP “leadership”? Is this their idea of being relevant and hip? “

Only a liberal obuma lover or a politically correct, wimpy RINO would be offended.

Go fishing and catch your sense of humor.

I'm sure the Democrats would have done the same thing if someone at one of their events went on stage and began made disparaging remarks about Sarah Palin.

(Yes, I'm being sarcastic.)

Heck, this is nothing.........sit at my dinner table and I will tell you without a beep or a blush what I think about the s.o.b. currently in the White House, none of it is racialy motivated, its the fact that the man is a outspoken enemy of the state!

Three years ago I called him a smart ass an s.o.b. and a enemy of the state..............after three years of chastising me , two nights ago my wife said your right, he is just that.

Vetting that so-called comic would have been a good idea. His act sounds like some of the tasteless stuff done at Press Club dinner or something Whoopi Goldberg would do.

Not funny and in incredibly poor taste and gives ammunition to the critics who say pubs are racist. (not that they need ammunition, but ..)

Letterman is the most vile of the late night morons, IMO.

Now that last line of yours was actually funny. It was clever and a good play on words.

Now compare that to the punk who was removed from the stage. I'm not offended at all by his schtick. My point is that it was the wrong venue.

Example: I like a good double-entendre, but I don't like them in G-rated movies aimed at kids. Yet the pop culture is increasingly foisting this crap on us, and it's become commonplace to see brief scenes of "adult" humor in these movies and shows. Is it funny? Maybe. But it's damn inappropriate!

And so are cheap comedic shots at the color of one's skin at a forum for social conservatives.

I expect such "humor" from Letterman. Not from the RLC.

Only one reason I don't listen to L or L.

I get my jokes from Brett Baier. (sp?) :)

Well, if you extend the comedic stage into the orchestra box and wipe out a few rows of front seats, it all fits.

The point is, FRiend, that we can’t be wringing our hands if a comedian steps on liberals and RINOs. I don’t care.

We’re at war, and anything that diminishes that Mau-Mau savage infesting our whitehouse suits me fine.

If you disagree, you drink from a different American tea cup than me.

Perfect place for this juvenile too, since no responsible adult would ever hire this clown.

In a way, I feel a little sorry for the guy. He probably built his act around what his showbiz friends told him Republicans would like. Next time, he should probably ask an actual Republican.

Then we agree, I'm happy to say.

I, too, love to skewer libs and RINOs. But I never target their skin color, sex, etc. To poke fun at a lib, all you have to do is bring up their INSANE agenda.

It's really that easy.

All the best!

Here’s a clip on the guy’s web site where you delivered all the same Obama jokes for the USO in April:

Okay, let’s do a comedy routine: Presenting - Flycatcher & Sarge. (We’ll need marquee lights and a 75 piece orchestra. You pay for that - I’m broke.)

You write the jokes, and I’ll trip and fall in the ditch.

Is Politico really saying this crossed the line?Or was a GOP person also saying it by pulling the guy off stage?

Either way...I guess it is okay for Wanda Sykes to call for people’s death in jokes.

I think he was hilarious! Sounded like a teaparty guy too.
