This is just an attempt to revive Sarah Palins massive train wreck political career... It won't work... Sarah Palin is done...
A couple of former basketball players doing commentary and a comedian's jab before a basketball game is an attempt by Sarah Palin to revive her political career?!
What the hell are you talking about?

BTW I said specifically that I didn't think it was a big deal.

Meaning... this thread is an attempt to generate sympathy for Sarah Palin. Tracy Morgan is hilarious... This is nothing... you should hear what's been said on Howard Stern...

It's not that he said it, saying it on a late night comedy show for adults, is much more appropriate than saying it while your kids are sitting there with you watching the ball game.

There is a time and a place for everything. During a family style event isn't the time nor the place for adult bathroom humor.

I wonder of he talks like that around his own kids, (if he has any).

Kathy Griffin (and probably Tracy Morgan) attacks Democrats in her act too... try again.

Exactly, Its not what he said its the time he said it.

He can speak however he wishes around his own children ( if he has some) but he needs to be respectful of everyone elses children.

A family should be able to watch a sporting event and other certain shows and not have to worry about explaining sexual acts.

Some of you need to calm down. Seriously, you're gonna have a stroke the way you're going on about this. Some of you are the same folks who went nuts over Janet Jackson Boobgate.

People who like this kind of disgusting stuff just kind of make a statement of who they are.
A person with a good sense of humor who isn't sexually repressed, politically obsessed and uptight? Yeah, that's me...

I'm also a HUGE fan of Howard Stern, so go ahead and make assumptions about me based on that - I don't mind!

I'd laugh hysterically at that, and have probably made a few such jokes myself... you just don't understand the difference between humor and political discourse, and that's okay.
