While Franken's satire might have been crude, that's likely to happen when you get several comedians together to write an off color skit.

I guess for you though it's all the same. Crude joke, believe that a woman's body can reject an unwanted baby. All the same.

Off color humor, especially for someone who's paid to be a satirist isn't nearly the same thing as someone running for office who has a serious misunderstanding as to how the human body works.

Keep trying.

I still don't find it funny or satirical in any way but maybe that's just me funny(odd) that you can so easily brush it off but seem so deeply disturbed by the "misunderstanding"......

It's easy to understand if someone it trying to write off color humor, less easy if someone is trying to justify public policy.

Get it now?
