Well that's the whole thing about humor I
guess. I know a lot of folks that find Huggy's guy Jim Carrey to be
outrageously funny, and I find him to be idiotic. That's why I say it's
much ado about nothing. What's funny to some is not funny to
others. IMHO what Trent Lott said about respecting the old guy was less
"offensive" than this joke, yet they demanded his
resignation.

Well you are in pretty good company... Sean Hannity
defended her too, last night.
I still say that it wasn't that funny.
And I am about as un-PC as you can get. I wasn't offended by the "joke", I
just thought she looked stupid trying to tell it.

before we became so "sensitive" the joke would have been funny. The
only reason it wasn't funny was because it made fun of a minority group in
the US. If the same type of joke would have been made about white
males it would have been uproariously funny. God, I hate to be put in
the position to defend Hillary, that's usually your
job./color> Charles Mims/color> http://www.the-sandbox.org/smaller>/color>/fontfamily>

I thought
the funny part was watching Hillary *trying* to be funny. Like the black
guy said last night on FOX.... "If you are not very funny then you
shouldn't be telling jokes."

People need a sense of humor. Heck I've been the butt of jokes all my
