Oy vey.
Enough. The time has come to put Joke the Plumber on the Cosmic Ignore List.
Would putzschmerz work?
Maybe, but I’m sticking with softly weeping until the Germans come through.
I know this is a couple of days old now, but I assume he might have meant Bill Maher. Whatever your opinion of Bill Moyers, you can’t argue that he’s breaking out of a career in the entertainment industry to suddenly pretend he’s interested in world events, unlike his other examples.

If, following Hurricane Katrina, Fuji TV had decided to send over a member of Morning Musume so they could film her flouncing around Louisiana in 20 pounds of plastic Hello Kitty accessories pretending to be a reporter by asking inane questions in fractured English to evacuees whose houses had been flooded or destroyed, I wouldn’t blame any NO residents one bit for finding her presence offensively insulting. I also don’t blame anyone in Israel or Palestine for looking at JtP the same way.
