I do recall a certain joke about Chelsea...

and how the RWers thought it was a hoot. The meme was..

"He shouldn't have told the joke"

"What joke?"

"You didn't hear?"

"It was just terrible...I really shouldn't."

"Go On!"

"Well, why is..."

No, I've had enough elections stolen; I've heard that my war-hero candidate is a traitor and deserter; I heard that a certain Senator who lost three limbs was a coward. Enough is enough. They want to play the game that way...OK.

2. The other way to look at that...

...is that the Chelsea joke wasn't O.K. It was offensive. Some of the "speculation" that has gone on here is also offensive.

Bigots may get laughs out of "nigger" jokes, but I'm not willing to work at that level to fight them.

3. Really...

no kidding.

You made my point for me. I thank you for your support and your concern for the poor misunderstood Republican Party.

Personally, I'd watch the language...

4. Here you are playing Etiquette Police and you dropped a bomb of your own.

You couldn't have said 'N-word'?

6. It's a word. It's an offensive word.

...and it adequately illustrates how offensive some of the "Babygate" posts here have been.

8. I've seen speculation here that Palin did it because she was TRYING to miscarry...

...since she knew she was having a baby with Down's Syndrome...

...I think that's pretty offensive...

9. Well, that's a story...
