Joe KLEIN shut down wingnut whining that SYKES' jokes were "inappropriate"

[UTUSN]

On the Mistah KURTZ circus, where the Mistah's SOP is to gig his media co-culprits for giving too much air to the wrongly prioritized topics in the past week, while proceeding himself to "do" those very same topics...

this whiny wingnut was ticking off jokes she thought were "inappropriate" ---about LIMBOsevic being the 20th hijacker, "the one about race," the one about the PALINs, and on and on.

KLEIN waited his turn, then said, "Comedy is by definition inappropriate. And (LIMBOsevic) calls himself an entertainer. He could put out his message seriously to his large audience (but doesn't)."


There was more, but my usually audiographic memory appears to be dimming. Too soon for a transcript link.

1. Yeah, Limbo was so appropriate when it came to Michael Fox.

2. Nothing will EVER be as inappropriate as GWB joking about hunting for WMDs.
