If you think it's o.k. for him to talk like that, either you don't have children or you don't care what they are exposed to.

Oh, and you didn't say anything about Obama laughing at the 9-11 joke. Can you defend him on that without bringing Bush into it?
I don't have children but I wouldn't look to you (just as you shouldn't look to me) , the Pres., a sports figure or anyone else to set the example of what I think is appropriate.

Can I defend him- no, it was inappropriate and in my prior posts, I never defended him.

My complaint was w/the hypoc. of calling him out when the prior Pres. and VP (giving the finger to a senator) skate free.
