“typical of the left”
Exactly.
Mel Brooks pegged lieberals: “Comedy is when you (Palin)fall through a manhole; tragedy is when I (Obama) stub my toe.”
Ridicule of conservatives is hilarious, thigh-slapping humor and to be encouraged; ridicule by conservatives, on the other hand, is hate speech and to be condemned.
President Obama was visiting a primary school and he visited one of the classes. They were in the middle of a discussion related to words and their meanings. The
teacher asked the president if he would like to lead the
discussion on the word ‘tragedy’?
So our illustrious president asked the class for an example
of a ‘tragedy’.
One little boy stood up and offered:
‘If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in
the field and a tractor runs over him and kills him, that would be a tragedy?’
‘No,’ said Obama, ‘that would be an accident.’
A little girl raised her hand: ‘If a school bus carrying 50 children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a tragedy.’
‘I’m afraid not,’ explained Obama.
‘That’s what we would call great loss.’
The room went silent. No other children volunteered. Obama
searched the room.’Isn’t there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?’
Try this for Comedy, LIBTARDS!
Finally at the back of the room, Little Johnny raised his
hand. In a quiet voice he said: ‘If the plane carrying you and Mrs. Obama was struck by a ‘friendly fire’ missile and blown to smithereens that would be a tragedy.’
‘Fantastic!’ exclaimed Obama. ‘That’s right. And can you tell me why that would be tragedy?’
‘Well,’ says the boy, ‘It has to be a tragedy,because it certainly wouldn’t be a great loss... and it probably wouldn’t be an accident either.
