Default Do you think it's appropiate for Jay Leno to mske jokes about Clinton right now?

Jay is my favorite late night talk show host but i just think it's not right to joke about Clinton in his current medical condition. I mean give the man a break. Jay had about 6/7 jokes about Clinton on Friday Night.

It's cool. I'm sure Dave will make some jokes about the situation, and he's been through the procedure himself.

This reminds me of a post that Janice made last year. In October/November there were a whole bunch of firestorms here and he made a lot of jokes about it. Because homes were destroyed and people even died, that's really something I don't think should be kid about.

To me it depends on what is made fun of. I wouldn't worry about whether he will crack a joke about Clinton. But there are some things that don't deserve a joke in the monologue.

Leno has gone too far in much of what he's made fun of. Heart trouble is no joking matter.

I think there are two reason for Leno's behavior -

1. He has become a shill for the Republican Party; and

2. Clinton and his life are a much better source of humor than Bush's. Clinton is a human, with human strengths and weaknesses. Bush is just scary.
