President Bush: Don't Say 'Lynching' In Jest

 Quote:
"The noose is not a symbol of prairie justice, but of gross injustice," the president said. "Displaying one is not a harmless prank, and lynching is not a word to be mentioned in jest."

As a civil society, Americans should agree that noose displays and lynching jokes are "deeply offensive," Bush said. "They are wrong. And they have no place in America today."


I guess O'Reilly didn't realize how much of a de factor standard this was.


This is not vengeance. This is pun-ishment.
