LB's Speech
I'm fascinated by some of the backlash Laura Bush is receiving for her speech at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. As a certifiable C-Span junkie ("certifiable" & "C-Span junkie" are redundant btw) I was delighted by the show. It's like crack-cocaine to someone who likes comedy and politics.
But a local Christian radio station guru was aghast, saying that for a spouse to publically criticize the other in public is wrong, even if it is a joke. Which does resonate with what a holy Dominican priest once said, cautioning against making jokes like 'old ball 'n chain' or anything deprecatory towards our better half. My take on the horse joke was that it was harmless.
Robert George of "Ragged Thots" links to Michelle Malkin's post and says: "Laura Bush: Uniter Not a Divider!!! Liberals without a sense of humor meet conservatives without a sense of humor. Hijinks ensue!!"
Now THAT'S entertainment.
