So feel sorry for me if you want, while I enjoy a rather entertaining and insightful show from one of the best interviewers on radio.
Brilliant? REally? He is forever stuck in a juvenille 13 year old boy's mentality. He is a perverted sick man. I understand some people find him funny.

I mean a democrat shot several other democrats and somehow it was caused by republicans? Sick! And it was very sick!

I wish for the congresswoman to have a full and fast recovery. Just remember when you are pointing a finger toward someone else, you are pointing three more back at yourself.
Oh honey, you're just mad b/c you can't back up anything you say. Take it out on me, I don't really care. Whatever makes you feel better, okay?

As for the bolded part, what the hell are you talking about??

I already answered in detail, but since you need yes & no answers to compute...

I will make is simple for you

A) yes i justify it as a joke so it justifiable (however, I do think it was inappropriate for live prime time, if that was the case - not sure about that detail)

B) No it was a joke but was not justified

Simple yes or simple No
Do you justify this sexual joke as being OK?

A follow up do you find this sexual joke to be OK when applied to any woman? Sure, why not? I don't think Sarah Palin is that attractive, but I'd find it funny in regards to any woman... even Hillary Clinton (perhaps even more so than Sarah). Not the funniest joke I've ever heard, but it gave me a chuckle.

I agree. I also agree with you in saying a man shouldn't be telling women what they should be offended by... That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Aside from calling someone guy means calling them a murderer. (I couldn't help myself on that one.)

Perhaps "par for the course" is more fitting than "ironic".
Do you think if this was said about you, your wife, or daughter or mother you would react the same...you really think this is a compliment.



This was said on National tv....not in a bar while having a drink ...

Thanks.
Don't you know these fine, upstanding gentlemen on this thread would never ogle a woman, or have sexual thoughts about a Victoria's Secret model, or Sarah Palin, or Katie Perry. They have never seen porn in their entire lives, and they only engage in carnal relations for the purposes of procreation.

Apparenly the use of common sense, and being able to distinguish between tacky humor and sexual exploitation is a lost skill.
