BREAKING: SOME DUers WAY TOO EASILY OFFENDED |
|
just becuase you dont have a sense of humor doesnt mean that nobody else can either.
there was nothing offensive about berlusconis comments, john stewarts william ayers jkoes were funny, and i look forward to 8 years of comedians mocking president obama

2. There are always a few Democrats who look at the sunrise and say "not again!" |

There will always be those among us who wring their hands excessively, and spend far too much time personally finding offense at everything said. Being offended is their emotional nourishment, the only thing that gets them off.

4. If you knew more about Italian culture, and Berlusconi himself, |
|
you would understand that you are wrong about Berlusconi's intentions and meaning. What he said was racist, and he had every intention of saying it that way.
As for myself, I look forward to the increased use of the Spell Check button over the next 8 years (hint).

Yes he said it as a joke, but this is the same Berlusconi who said that western culture is superior to islamic culture...

8. He's right they were not offensive..they were bigoted. |
|
Bigotry comes from ignorance and stupidity. One of the basics of comedy. I don't believe he was trying to offend.., he was just sticking his foot in his mouth with out the maranara sauce. :smoke:

10. WOW! You really opened my eyes here -thanks! |
|
We are talking about Democrats, ya know - I'm amazed so many got together to elect our new President, and waited nearly 4 hours before starting to tell him how to run the country, what type of dog to get, etc.
Oh, wait ...you were making a "joke"....

12. It's in the rules somewhere-- every DUer has to... |
|
take offense at something trivial at least once a month.
Something about the world ending if we don't get enough people huffing and puffing about nothing.
