How do you figure? They make fun of her ALL THE TIME on television, particularly on SNL, and I don't see anyone making a stink of it... you keep trying to throw out that card, but we've all told you it's a false assumption. Clearly, it's just the conservatives who take comedy this seriously.

Does this mean he won't be replacing Ricky Gervais at the Golden Globes?

Certainly not in prime time but comedians are known to push the envelope. So consider the source and move on.

I'm not an uptight prude so no, I wouldn't "go nuts" if a comedian said the same thing about Michelle Obama. However crude it might be, it's still a compliment. Like I said, consider the source and move on. Palin has been labeled a MILF since she came on the scene. Do you get upset every time you see that on a message board?

There is absolutely no evidence whatsoever, that Rush or Glen are haters, except that they hate tyranny, corruption and underhaded political dealings. Perhaps you should actually spend some time listening to them, but then you wouldn't have your illusion anymore.

I'd say the continual hypocrisy of the right which you so ably demonstrate.
who was attacked right after the shooting by the sheriff . who was wronged by placing blame on her
There is your hypocrisy

I've referred to Obama as a "PILF" on this very forum... I even have a t-shirt with the saying, LOL. Again, it's clearly more conservatives who are lacking in the humor department.

Guy has many meanings, but here is the most common:

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/guy

A: man, fellow

B: person - used in plural to refer to the member of a group regardless of gender, eg. I saw her and the rest of the guys.

What is the offensive quality of this word again? I guess it's always important to have some drivel to be outraged about.

You guys were all attacking, regardless of who got to say "FIRST!!" like they were on YouTube... it was disgusting all around, and everyone is a hypocrite if they claim innocence from those discussions. Exactly why I bowed out quickly (and haven't discussed it again until now), because it was truly sickening from all ends of the spectrum. So get off the high horse, before you fall down HARD.

The fact, to me anyway, that you call yourself a "country girl" means your simple minded and with simple mindedness comes trash. IMO that is. And the fact that you openly admitted to watching Glen Beck shows you have no morale.

Also: I live in OK - which is a part of flyover country. You're some genius!
