1. I think it is in poor taste and not at all funny.
The woman in the video uses all kinds of vulgarities. Elizabeth Warren is never vulgar.

That video is intended to turn more conservative voters against Elizabeth Warren.

It should not have a place on DU.

Some time ago, someone posted vicious comedy against Obama on DU. I do not believe that person was a Democrat. I disagree with Obama on many issues, and I appreciate humor -- but not ridicule that is unrelated to the reality of the person being ridiculed and dishonest.

The Elizabeth Warren video is very, very dishonest -- no doubt the work of some Republicans.

4. Are you kidding me?
"Vulgarities?" Keep clutching those pearls while I get the smelling salts.

That video kicks ass and takes names.

3. That's some shameful bullshit. It denigrates one of the finest women in political life.

11. It's funny; I think there might be an age gap in how people react to this video.
Younger people seem to think it's freaking awesome. Older people seem to think it's insulting.

Of course there are exceptions on either side, but I have to wonder if age is the biggest factor behind the disconnect here.

As for me--I think it's fantastic. It's just like something Jon Stewart would have done.

:hi:

13. You're probably right...
I think some folks are too dense around here. You should have seen the jokes I was posting during the primary cycle in 2008... oh man, the insults! I thought I was going to get banned.

Holy shit you people can't get a fucking joke. Are you a bunch of fucking dumb asses or what?

Get over yourselves already, it's a damn funny video. Quit being a killjoy and fucking smile once and a while. If you were not completely humor blind, you would see this is some funny shit that is really not meant to be against warren but to be silly.

16. You are right. I didn't get it the first time.
I'm not usually "humorly" challenged, but it took a second view for me to see into this.

It's pretty funny. The hand gestures give it away.

Right wing humor OTOH, has everything but the humor.
