Puhlease.. I had to read through tons of NON FUNNY jokes about panties on this thread.

Go be a thread cop to all the wanna be comedians on here instead of Doc.
To me making stupid jokes on a breaking news thread that is about people being shot to death is MORE offensive and more out of line than any observation DOC has made.
JMHO

Then go start you own damn thread.

Have you ever been on a live thread before??? This one is more on topic then most. Just skim and scroll past the crap you don't want to read.

I tried that plea also, snark...it didn't work. Unfortunately some find a way to rationalize hogging all the bandwidth to go off on tangets that interfere with the theme of the topic. I just wish it wasn't so. But, I guess their rights are more important than the ones who try to stay with the topic. (Ooops here I go!) Oh well, at least we all voted the same, for Bush. We just have to excuse them.
