MissSepphora1 -> God save us from jokes... (6/2/2008 7:17:30 PM)
As if nothing else is wrong in the world, Cheney telling a joke has brought out both side, "denouncing" his joke. Can't they find ANYTHING better to do, like lowering our gas prices, than to denouce a joke??? http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,362001,00.html "So I had Cheneys on both sides of the family — and we don't even live in West Virginia," Cheney joked. "You can say those things when you're not running for re-election."

Cheney has a sense of humour...who'd a thunk it

"(Obama would) probably be fearful I might whisper in his ear and change his whole view of the Middle East," Cheney said. Now this line is funny.

Cheney's 'joke' is offensive and he should be called on it....there's plenty of time to address the issues of the day while still taging our VP for such stupid azz statements. pinksugarsub

I suppose we should forgive him for his lapse in taste. After all, he's been such a credit to the office so far. I mean, it's not like he's shot anyone or anything...

There's that word aghain, "offensive". "There's no such thing as the Mafia and I find it "offensive" to Italian Americans everywhere." Tony Soprano

If the OP is so concerned about not wasting her precious time with irrelevant things like a dickhead like Cheney making some dickhead remark, which is all the man is able to do anyway, I see little point to her thread. Perhaps those of you who advise others to 'ligthen up' should take a page from your own book. If you don't like hearing the reactions... don't listen to them.

Why? I'm not asking other people to stop giving a shit about something that matters to them and moaning about it. I never pretended I didn't care. Buh bye.

kdsub -> RE: God save us from jokes... (6/3/2008 10:46:32 AM)
It just makes me wonder about his judgement in saying such a thing... It is not the joke that I care about but that it shows his poor judgement... I guess I should not be surprised he has been showing poor judgement for years. Butch

kittinSol -> RE: God save us from jokes... (6/3/2008 10:58:46 AM)
It's not acceptable for somebody in such a high position of power to make jokes of that nature, especially in a public setting. Cheney belongs in a circus - as you say, such poor judgement is kind of worrying. Perhaps he's suffering from some kind of dementia.

I hear banjo music!" And if Senator Robert "Sheets" Bird reacted the way he did.....why so sensitive?

servantforuse -> RE: God save us from jokes... (6/3/2008 11:17:58 AM)
The real joke here is that an ex member of the KKK, Sen. Byrd, thought that this joke was insensitive..Give me a break..

kittinSol -> RE: God save us from jokes... (6/3/2008 11:24:22 AM)
I'm not offended by Cheney's remark, but I find it amusing that the OP took the time to rant and express being offended that some people were offended and that it was all a waste of her time. If you get my drift [;)] . Cheney: how can such a clown be your vice-president?

orfunboi -> RE: God save us from jokes... (6/3/2008 12:40:15 PM)
Some people have no sense of humor.

Ok, let's hear some "Democratic" jokes!

servantforuse -> RE: God save us from jokes... (6/3/2008 4:42:49 PM)
Neither is Hillary now. I guess even the democrats are sick of the Clintons. Maybe thats the last we will see of them.
