I did not reply there, but I must ask why--was it because you are drunk or was it because you are Irish?

Poking fun at his looks, for sure, but no different than talking about Sarah Palin and throwing up a picture of Tina Fey or John McCain and a douche nozzle.

But I would wager some took it as a fat joke.

A shame it got shut down, because the content of the post was spot-on.

Chris Christie! In retaliation for all the fat jokes Letterman tells on him. That's the only reason I hope Christie does get the Repug nomination in '16; Letterman would have a field day, and so would I. DL said the other night that he wasn't really retiring. So I don't know about that. But I do know he'll skewer Christie every chance he gets. And it's not really generic fat jokes, which would be offensive. It's Christie jokes, which I love him for. I almost miss that rich guy with the poor dog Seamus because he supplied Letterman with so much great material. Yeah, he picks on President Obama just a little bit now and then for counterpoint, I guess, but nothing compared to how he smashes Repugs.

This is a discussion that needs to happen, but likely won't.

It appears media memes and slogans have won the day. None willing to think about consequences.

And why you no answer my replies to you?
