Making a mockery of the bad guys
by digby
Dennis Hartley reminded me that back when we actually had an existential threat and were fighting a war on many fronts all over the globe with people who really did want to kill us in our beds, we weren’t quite so sensitive about making fun of our self-declared enemies:
I wonder if SNL will come back this week with another ISIS satire or if they’ll cave to the deep thinkers like Elizabeth Hasselback who thinks it’s insensitive to mock psychopathic killers. I guess it makes them feel bad about themselves or something.
