the incredibly courageous staff of this French magazine , Charlie Hebdo, I am probably pronouncing it wrong but we all know who they are, they said it loud and clear this week because they announced yesterday, not only will they put out the next edition on time, but with a million extra copies. Yeah, I mean, my heroes, compare that to Sony who pulled the “interview” after one on-line threat. Congratulation Sony, you put up less resistance than the French. Wow, they are the scaredy pants. They also shut down the production of next “Guardian of the Galaxy” movie because the raccoons complained about their portrayal.
wish, they are martyrs, they were shot dead by French police. And the third
jihadist, which is their accomplice, also shot dead, got this, maybe there is a
god, in a kosher deli, I just hope the last thing went through this guy’s head,
other than the sound of the bullets, was an old Jewish woman complaining the
brisket was too fatty. Now we are learning more about these brothers who
carried out this attack, they are as everyone expected, Amish, well, you know
what, Howard Dean said the other day, he said they are not Muslim terrorists,
they are mass murders, he was going to say more but the elephant in the room
sat on him. OK, we found out these two brothers were radicalized by a fanatical
janitor. I love that, because you know what, a janitor he must have the inside
track on what God wants, because God made him a janitor, he would put out a
fatwa on gum.
to make fun of religion, but only religion could ruin getting high and looking
at cartoons. So, meanwhile this week over at Syria Isis be-headed a street
magician, finally, we are on the same page, I have to think that Charlie Hebdo
would like that joke. You know the death toll at the office would have much higher, except luckily it was Paris in the middle of the day, most people being at home having sex.
aime la France. Even the conservatives, Senate republicans even considering changing the Freedom Fries back to French Fries. And all the politicians are
getting into the act, Chris Christie, today pledged that he would eat a whole
tray of chocolate éclairs, and Bill Clinton said he would proudly take part in ménage
à trios.
周五的“Real Time with Bill Maher”。Bill 生在一個天主教家庭,父親是天主教徒,母親是猶太裔。
他自己小時候隨父為天主教教徒。後來成為無神論者,而且是最大聲的無神論者,曾製作電
影“Religulous”,拿各種宗教開涮。Bill 是言論自由的強力捍衛者,大麻無害論的時刻推銷員,共和
黨與美國“紅州”最“可恨”的對手。911前曾主持電視節目“政治不正確”。911發生,Bill 說了一段“不合
時宜”的話,結果被電視公司開鍘。他到現在一直耿耿於懷,說他是唯一為911負起責任的美國人。
喜劇藝人的驕傲,得罪“弱勢”就是狗腿子了。Bill 以拿宗教開涮為己任,幾乎無天主教不成笑話。可
是,穆斯林在美國是弱勢,拿穆斯林開玩笑是一種不可為的禁忌。Bill 曾在一期自己的節目上“探
討”穆斯林,結果被“自由派”的“同誌”大肆修理批判。可是,社會也得想一想,當一個“弱勢”弱到不能
批評時,這個“弱勢”是不是真那麽“弱”?
有了這些背景,上麵那段視頻就容易理解些。再解釋幾個細節。
Bill Maher 及“Charlie Hebdo”版的笑話,與咱國文化在許多方麵格格不入,這就是所謂的文化衝突吧。
