Let’s Celebrate the F-Word

I was going to leave this alone, but I simply can’t. When Vice President Joe Biden introduced the president after the healthcare victory he dropped the f-bomb.  Initially the president acted like he didn’t really hear him, but since that time this event has become cause for celebration. Some call the language colorful while I still call it profane. People have a right in this country to say whatever they want, but at a presidential press conference I would think the language would rise beyond the street. Some will say he did not know his comment was audible. I’ll accept that, but now the Democrats have immortalized it with this tee shirt which is selling out. So parents will proudly where this tee shirt and tell their children what it means. Some will say give me a break kids hear these words everyday, and while that might be true I would never buy a tee shirt that celebrates the profane. It is simply another symptom of people in Washington saying whatever unfiltered thought rolls through their heads, and now people are willing to shell out cash to broadcast those thoughts to a wider audience.
