A Croatian cameraman was fired Friday after Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor took offence to a message on a T-shirt the cameraman was wearing at the government press conference.

RTL television cameraman Thursday afternoon wore a T-shirt with the words: 'I do not need sex, the government f***s me every day'.

Of course, if the shirt had read “F*** Bush”, that would have been cheered.

Very true message. But you’re at work. Where something dignified.

That was in English? I have to wonder if the guy knew what the words on the T-shirt meant. A lot of non-English-speaking foreigners wear T-shirts with slogans they don’t understand.

Well, it looks like Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor proved the cameraman’s t-shirt’s point.

Similar thought....

Politicians and diapers should be changed frequently and for the same reason.

While I can agree with the sentiment it’s not an acceptable t-shirt to wear to work, let alone to an event involving the Prime Minister of a country.

Also, ignorance of English is not a excuse. He needs to know what the t-shirt says. I have no more sympathy for him than the American who thinks a tattoo artist is tattooing the Chinese word for “courage”, when the tattoo actually says “pretty”.
