The Left And The Politics Of The F - - - WORD

The flap over the Veep’s use of the f-word is overblown!  We all know expletives simply by their first letter.  As Americans, we tolerate this sort of thing but to most of us it is old-school, inappropriate and tiring.  For years, Hollywood delivered a version of trash as fact and has changed little with F--------- 9/11.  They barraged us with a thesaurus of f-leagued bombs disguised as blockbusters.  Now the media joins this devoid crowd by adding its own emphasis to the f-word, insisting that we see more of it, as in “f - - k”.  Are the critics so lacking of critique skills that they must resort to slamming the administration by elevating the f-word to more than it is?  What can we expect from a media that gave President Clinton a pass on the meaning of  “IS”?  Why did a word not count then, but another word, can mean more today?  I suggest to the egalitarians that the two missing letters in the printable likeness are not what most think.  Please print the objectionable word as “f I S k”.  This form of the f-word would give clear meaning of what happened to the American people due to the lack of judgment by the former president.  It would also maintain the spirit of disdain held by the current VP in his summary retort to Senator Leahy, who according to the media, earned it quite eloquently.
