I was never a fan of his either - always thought his humor pretty dumb - always thought his cause very worthy. At the risk of going somewhat off topic, I am inclined though to cut him some major slack with his comment. He's a comedian, and said it as part of a routine he was doing. Today's comedians say AWFUL things about others, and I think it's OK when said in fun. To say it with ill will or hatred is wrong. And some people are just too darned sensitive. You don't hear the illiterates complaining about his comment, do you? ;D
