Have The Bbc Sunk To Even More Low Levels With Last Night's Jack Dee's Helpdesk

I have heard of satire, but this was a deliberate Lefftie attempt to belittle the next President of the USA.

Yes Obama was really put through the mill on that video clip, Randy.

Satire
the use of humour, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.

/// He is a target because of his Neanderthal sexist and racist attitudes, ///

I know that you constantly side-up with our Mikey, but don't let his rude and offensive remarks wipe off on you, but then again one can't blame Mikey all the time, perhaps he may have caught such thing from you.

No matter how much you dislike certain celebrities, criticise if you must, but please stop the deliberate name calling there is no need for it and it adds nothing to the debate. //

You may not tire of your daily attempts to draw me into yet another thread-destroying argument, but I do, so I will simply dismiss your points for the nonsense they are, and move on.

I answered your post in a perfectly polite way, but you came back with your usual rude attitude.

Just goes to show, that if I do show 'Puritan' attitudes as you so rudely stated, then they are much better and much more polite than your usual indescribable attitude.

andy-hughes, //So although President Obama may have been given an easy ride because he lacks any stand-out idiosyncrasies in either appearance or personality,//

His ears have been the subject of some considerable ridicule.

Mikey, ‘Woy’ Hattersley? Oh dear. And you so quick to criticise ... erm ... others .... you perceive to be mocking the afflicted.

Naomi - //andy-hughes, //So although President Obama may have been given an easy ride because he lacks any stand-out idiosyncrasies in either appearance or personality,//

Fair point.

[naomi24]

andy-hughes, you've copied and pasted your own post.

[-Talbot-]

You didn't C&P naomi's point, andy

[andy-hughes]

Naomi and Talbot - //andy-hughes, //So although President Obama may have been given an easy ride because he lacks any stand-out idiosyncrasies in either appearance or personality,//

His ears have been the subject of some considerable ridicule. //

Fair point (Take 2!!)

Apologies, didn't get much sleep last night.

[-Talbot-]

You need to stop taking AB so seriously.

Please forgive me for copying and pasting the type of reply that I wish to make to you, since I couldn't have put it better myself.

It is only a pity that both you and the original author can't practice what you both preach.

You do though acknowledge that it is a video sending him up Talbot?

[melv16]

Revolting is an excellent satire show. They have a go at May, Corbin and Putin among others. Muslims don't get away with it, there were sketches on suicide bombers and arranged marriages, both were hilarious.

[-Talbot-]

Made him look like a Super-Hero rather than mocked him.

He hasn't been properly targeted like Trump, Bush (junior) or Reagan.
Carter is the only Democrat I can recall that took some serious *** from the mocking media

The US arty-farty virtue signallers, don't want to be left out either;

Saturday night live rip on Bill Clinton all the time.

Some presidents bring it on themselves.

Now watch this drive.

[-Talbot-]

Trump does bring it on himself but I actually don't think it bothers him. He probably scan the stations to see himself being mocked and loves the attention regardless.

[yogi-bear]

That is for sure, Talbot....old adage...any publicity is good publicity.

If you're not being talked about, you ain't hot
