Aww....you don't get jokes. That's a shame. As Mrs. Trump was NOT the subject of the joke. See you don't have to find it funny...that's the beauty of it. But complaining because you didn't understand it? Very small.

But does it bother you now? Because the premise your Kimmel post was it was a joke at the expense of the FLOTUS. Should NO jokes be made about them, or just ones you get and find funny?

If you say so.

Yes. Indeed. Usually under the "If anyone did it I'd speak out" and then when presented with example of it being done in threads you participated in and said nothing....well, nothing.

[quote='bfine32' pid='537773' dateline='1523570483']You're really doubling down on the 2 wrongs make a right fallacy aren't you? 

And ya still don't want to acknowledge understand the explanation of why Hannity was introduced and what it means to tell a joke versus attacking someone for political points. That's adorable.

It wasn't simply an off-handed comment, it was the entire reasoning behind his lame attempt at humor.

Earlier I said a professed liberal making fun of the speech of an immigrant was the epitome of hypocrisy; I stand corrected. The true epitome is self-professed liberals trying to excuse and/or support it. Many folks are showing their true colors. 

As to Hannity: The limited exposure I've had to him would lead me to believe he is a hypocritical ass. not worth of me giving him much attention.

The first time I see a similar comment standing up for immigrants when our resident xenophobes post I'll believe the above a little bit.
