Someone's Paying Attention

When Michael Richards stunned a nightclub audience two years ago by shouting the N-word at a black patron, Laugh Factory owner Jamie Masada was quick to join the Rev. Jesse Jackson in calling for a ban on the word's use.

Now that Jackson has let the word slip out, Masada says he wants the civil rights leader to do what comics do every time they say the word on a Laugh Factory stage - pay a fine.

"Unfortunately, Jesse Jackson has broken his own principles," Masada told The Associated Press on Thursday. "Jesse embraced the notion of fining talent for using such a word and he should be held to his own standards."

Well Mr. Masada, if Jesse Jackson were to be held up to his own standards, he wouldn't have been nailing his secretary and gotten her pregnant while still married, now would he?

Now, normally, I wouldn't chide someone for fooling around on their wife/husband.  That's not my business.  But when you tell me how to run my life and how I should act/talk/react to things, then the gloves come off.
