However, if your logic was used imagine how those in 2006 who flooded Virginia with lies about voting on armor for the troops to defeat Allen....or in 2004 when the ACTUAL DEMOCRATIC party sent out phoney emails in a game of gay baiting.

Of course both parties do it but you can only see ONE side as always, and again the point of this thread was that a SITTING PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES...A PRESIDENT...after 5 months in office made a statement about a network not supporting what he wants to do. Dont even know if it is true but having a PRESIDENT make this statement TWICE in 5 months is pretty newworthy !

Look....the picture was sent by a GOP staffer...it is racist. End of story.

Just the other day he cried because Fox News station dares not to bow down to him and asks the same hard questions all presidents are expected to answer.
Stop the belly-aching.

PS. It is still funny!!!

Now you know that does not count Keedy ! THAT is ok....for some folks the party is before everything !

Why can't certain people stay on the subject???

Edit....Not you Bucco...I have the wrong quote up there...

I have deleted three posts that contained the picture.

We will not publish it on Talk of The Villages.

I believe this thread started about the joke that Letterman made. I just made the comment about the GOP picture and comments about Michelle Obama. Why are you all upset about those?

Then the comment was made that I deleted a post....so I posted the picture circulated by the GOP.

It was a racist picture that should not have been created much less sent out.

So I get from this that bad jokes on Late Night TV should not be made but racist pictures are ok......

Apples and oranges. A private e-mail seen by how many? As compared to a "joke" broadcast around the world on Satellite and Cable Television. I find it tedious to explain things that should be obvious to the most casual of posters.

COLOGAL...what is your intent here ?

The Letterman thing was just in the news...and all you can talk about is what the "other guy" did...what is it that you are trying to say ? You continually harp on party party party.....what is your point PLEASE ! Both parties and celebs do stupid things...we all know that. Why must you always try to "keep score" ?

A racist picture sent by private email is ok? That explains it.

With all due respect please work on your reading comprehension !

Exactly...The key word is private. Just like what you do in your bedroom...private. Political correctness stops in my private domain. Period.

I find this post funny....keeping score. LOL.

My point is this that violence and hate speech is on the rise since Obama got elected. Liberal churches have been shot up, a doctor killed, the President threatened and a security guard at the Holocaust killed. Why was there no post on TOTV about the attack on the Holocaust museum?

If you are outraged about the Palin remarks why not outrage about the attack on the museum?

Nobody is stopping you. You can start a post on a crazy man attacking a museum anytime you want. Just like I can start a post on a crazy man who shot President Regan getting new privileges which was on the news yesterday. By the way...the museum guy turned out to be a leftist..which might account for the lack of publicity lately.

Your memory is short and convenient !

You obviously forget the videos, movies etc on the entire Bush family including the first lady.

Why are you so outraged that someone posted about the Letterman remarks ? Why does that anger you so ? You seem to be so filled with rage about this particular story.

Why do you assume that everyone is blase about the stories you mention ? What do they have to do with the Letterman story in ANY WAY ?

You are so filled with hate and partymania that it SEEMS, not sure, but sure seems as if you believe that the Republican party is up to all these things....that the only bad things are happening to liberals....that the conservative devils are behind everything...that anyone who does not kneel at the feet of the current administration is somehow a very very bad person and cannot have any feelings at all !

You need a new pair of glasses, some that are not so filled with hate and not so party colored. How you can take people to task on TOTV for not posting about everything that upsets you is amazing. Why did nt you post something about them ?

Why do you feel that because somebody began this thread that they are somehow not sympathetic to other stories, which is exactly what you imply ?
