Poor Newt Gingrich.
It must be hard to live without a sense of humor.
Robert De Niro, on the other hand, recently told one of the funniest jokes I’ve heard in a long time.
Via TPM:
Newt Gingrich is incensed about a joke by actor Robert DeNiro at a fundraiser attended by Michelle Obama for the president’s re-election…
“Callista Gingrich. Karen Santorum. Ann Romney. Now do you really think our country is ready for a white first lady?” DeNiro said. “Too soon, right?”
Sadly, TPM also reports that a spokeswoman for Michelle Obama has told NBC that the joke was inappropriate.
There is NOTHING funny about white male privilege.
