Too busy watching the View and Wheel of Fortune I guess.

For someone who claims not to watch Beck or listen to Rush, you act like you know everything they talk about and you have blood vessels popping with your hatred for them.

I'm just sayin'

That's your right and I support it. Momma always said "If ya don't like it, don't watch it." Which is why I don't watch Glenn Beck.

I'm going to keep watching Larry David. In fact, I'm inviting my son over with his family to watch the episode in question. Belly laughs are good for the health.

I have watched it for the past 7 seasons. But I will watch it no more. It's called principles.

Did Jews complain the unnumerable times Larry David has berated them on his show? Did Muslims? Did African Americans? Did Republicans? Did Democrats? He's like Don Rickles, an equal opportunity berator. Watch the show sometime. You might enjoy putting a little farce in your life.

Why just Sunday, he took his Dad (played by the great Shelly Berman) to the cemetary to visit his mothers grave. Larry then noted that his father had engraved on his mothers gravestone "Past Away" instead of "Passed Away" followed by the date of her death. His father told Larry, "Well, it would have been another 200 dollars a letter and I didn't want to spend the extra money. Past, passed, it's all the same thing. Everyone knows what it means!"

Now you don't think that this scene in the cemetary on Sunday's show had anything to do with a little farcical humor about those of the Jewish faith allegedly always being a little "tight with the dollar?" As every Larry David show is, it was an absolute hoot. Watch it sometime, you might enjoy it!!

Is the News somehow adverse to giving the race of the suspect? Or is it not Politically Correct to mention that?

What's next should we also legalize Bigamy. After all aren't bigamists being persecuted and prosecuted? We have started down the proverbial slippery slope and ruination awaits us at the bottom. Like Rome, our own vice wil be our undoing.
