If Robert Deniro makes a joke you don't like, just laugh

I have had enough.  People need to stop it.  An actor makes a joke and everyone loses their minds.  Here is what Robert Deniro said:  “Callista Gingrich. Karen Santorum. Ann Romney. Now do you really think our country is ready for a white first lady?  Too soon, right?"  It was a joke.  It was not inexcusable.  The President doesn’t need to apologize for it.  It is not even vaguely in the same league as saying that a woman who uses contraception is a slut.  I’m sorry, but when you say that women should only have sex to make babies … well that is not humorous.  This was kind of funny.  I know someone out there is saying, “well it wouldn’t have been funny if it had been the other way around … what if McCain had asked if the country was ready for a black first lady?”  No, it wouldn’t have been funny, that’s because whites weren’t slaves.  The President is black, was born in this country, is a Christian, liked Derrick Bell (a lauded scholar with a theory that had little to do with white supremacy), is not a socialist, and doesn’t have to apologize for comedians and actors who make jokes you don’t appreciate.   Now, can we move on to real issues?
