re: #121 dugmartsch

i read a lot of lefty (being a lefty) blogs and I’ve never seen a trig joke. I’m sure people are making them just that I’ve never seen one, and I’d consider it disastrously distasteful for someone to make one. A dark hard line in the sand, unless they’re adults and attempting to be media personalities themselves.

The Chelsea jokes were the worst. I couldn’t imagine having my fat, awkward teenage phase broadcast and then mocked on national media. The thought makes me want to throw up.

Implying that the Obama’s perfectly normal children are somehow developmentally challenged because they asked a childlike question is beyond awful.

Actually, he wasn’t, I don’t think, implying that they were developmentally challenged. He was implying that they were poorly educated. Which leads toward a whole different can of worms or two.
