Letterman tells lame-ass jokes. Limbaugh tells lies. Neither are actually true, but there is an important distinction.
White House Dog, is what I remember.
IIRC, the “Janet Reno her daddy” line is a Limbaugh.
That’s McCain. At least, he’s the one who got heat for telling it.
Limbaugh talked about a White House dog, and then showed a picture of Chelsea (on his old tv show), IIRC. Al Franken was outraged about it, because (he claimed) Rush Limbaugh claimed never to have insulted family members or some crap.
Three. One to screw in the new bulb, one to complain about the violation of the socket, and one to secretly wish she was the socket.
The lesbian carpentry collective? No studs, no nails, lots of tongue-and-groove.
Rush’s joke was making fun of Chelsea’s appearance when she was 13(ish).
Dave’s joke was making fun Sarah Palin (and her stance on sex ed) and Alex Rodiguiz (and his bed-hopping ways.)
The two jokes are not comparable. Even though Dave’s joke reference’s Bristol, she’s not the punchline. Furthermore, one is a direct insult to a tween’s looks - the other is an unnamed reference to a teenager’s genuine actions.
Watching conservatives try to play the tu quoque card is like watching Bullwinkle pull a rabbit out of a hat. Only, you know, not funny.
Which ‘libs’, currently posting to this thread? Put up or shut up.
I love it when right wingers try pretend they know what misogyny means.
But it is only funny if Michelle Obama becaomes a strong supporter of “abstinance only” education. Its funny 'cause its karma.
“Broke new ground”!?! She was Geraldine Ferraro 20 years late and without the qualifications.
I’m sorry…who had an air-headed beauty queen who speaks like a Coen brothers’ character as their vice-presidential candidate again? Whose head of the national party is a gaffe-prone token whose foot rarely leaves his mouth? Whose major party activity since November has consisted of saying “No” to everything that anyone who isn’t of their party proposes? Whose party is drilling itself into the ground like the giant drills Bugs Bunny?
Whoosh, I think.
Ferraro had only been in Congress for less than six years when she was named to the ticket, she had almost no foreign policy experience, and her ticket won only one state.
Oh for chrissakes Plan B turn the fuckin’ TV off and go for a walk.
Except for that last one, which DON’T apply to Palin? She had been governor for 2 years in 2008 (are you going to try to claim that mayoral and city council experience are at all equivalent to being in Congress?). She had NO foreign policy experience. And frankly, you can call me a religious bigot if you want, but I don’t want anyone who seriously believes in a church that takes a “witch-hunter” seriously anywhere near either the White House or Congress.
I remember two, although it’s possible that one wasn’t Limbaugh’s. I want to say the first was was certainly Limbaugh, and the second I’m not sure of.
In one case, a picture of a Bulldog was shown while mentioning Chelsea.
In the other, after talking about Socks, the White House Cat, they said something like, “Now let’s talk about the White House dog,” and displayed a picture of Chelsea.
– bolding mine
Bullshit! She’d been keeping a close eye on Putin for years…right from the window in her office.
But if you’re a conservative, then you must think hypocrisy is a good thing.
