You should just ignore that thread. The joke is tasteless, and cruel, but why would you care? The folks there are old- and unlikely to change. The younger generation is much more accepting, look to them- and ignore the old fossilized relics. Be glad you aren't one yourself, and try to ignore them.

I'm confused by what you wrote. This is the exact quote that was spoken by Keith Olbermann on MSNBC on his show. The people at PfP think that Keith Olbermann is a worthless waste of time, who is pretty much the left-wing version of Rush Limbaugh. I don't see any "bad attitude" on the part of PfP people, rather it is Keith Olbermann that has the problem.
If we are to improve the political discorse in this country we can start by removing from TV, Keith Olbermann and other similar wing-nuts on the left.


> THIS IS WHAT HURTS SO MUCH. ATTITUDE at PFP.

"In short, in Scott Brown we have an irresponsible, homophobic, racist, reactionary, ex-nude model, teabagging supporter of violence against woman and against politicians with whom he disagrees. In any other time in our history, this man would have been laughed off the stage as an unqualified and a disaster in the making by the most conservative of conservatives. Instead, the commonwealth of Massachusetts is close to sending this bad joke to the Senate of the United States."

You can watch Keith Olbermann say this on MSNBC yourself here:
